VMware vSphere 8.x Advanced Design (VCAP-DCV Design) — Question 4

An architect is designing a new vSphere-based solution for a customer.
During a requirements gathering workshop, the following information is provided:
The solutions must provide a recovery point objective (RPO) of 15 minutes.
The solution must have a primary and secondary site.
The solution must support orchestration to address application dependencies.
Which two solutions should the architect include in the design to meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

Answer options

Correct answer: C, E

Explanation

The correct answers are C and E. Site Recovery Manager (C) is designed to enable orchestration and automate the recovery process between primary and secondary sites, making it suitable for meeting the RPO requirement. vSphere Replication (E) supports RPOs as low as 15 minutes, ensuring data is replicated in a timely manner. The other options do not fully satisfy both the orchestration and RPO requirements.
