VMware vRealize Operations Manager Advanced — Question 43

A company has the full VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) stack deployed and is now considering Amazon Web Services (EC2). The vRealize
Automation (vRA) architect needs to integrate an Amazon test account to perform testing.
What should the architect do to move forward with the initiative?

Answer options

• A. Create an Openstack endpoint and connect it to Amazon's cloud.
• B. Create an Amazon EC2 endpoint.
• C. Deploy a vCenter server appliance in Amazon AWS and connect it as an endpoint to vRealize Automation.
• D. Use the vRealize Orchestrator Plug-in for Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because creating an Openstack endpoint allows integration with Amazon's cloud infrastructure effectively. Option B, creating an Amazon EC2 endpoint, does not provide the necessary integration with the existing VMware SDDC. Option C, deploying a vCenter server appliance in AWS, is unnecessary for this integration. Option D, using the vRealize Orchestrator Plug-in, is not the most effective approach for this specific integration requirement.
