VMware vSphere 8.x Advanced Design (VCAP-DCV Design) — Question 40

An architect is tasked with devising a vSphere design strategy that will allow the company to quickly scale global data center functionality when a new location is identified.
The following requirements must be met:
The solution must include VMware licensing costs.
The design must keep data locally to each specific location.
The design must utilize current company processes around vSphere.
Any new global location must be functional within one month of identification.
Which design strategy will meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Plan specific locations throughout the world and build data centers in anticipation of the scale events.
• B. Purchase new hardware and deploy VMware Cloud Foundation when a new location is identified.
• C. Select partners in each identified location in anticipation of the scale events.
• D. Locate a partner that has a data center presence in major global locations that can deploy compatible company architecture.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Option D is correct because it allows for rapid deployment of existing architecture in various global locations while ensuring compliance with local data regulations. Option A involves building data centers in advance, which may not be feasible or cost-effective. Option B focuses on new hardware purchases, which could delay implementation. Option C suggests selecting partners but lacks the assurance of immediate readiness and compliance with company architecture.
