Which requirement would be classified as a functional requirement within the application design documentation?

During a requirements gathering workshop to design a physical to virtual migration, the customer provides the following information: There is no physical firewall in the data center with no anticipated plans for a future network refresh. Leveraging the virtual infrastructure to mitigate the lack of network security must be addressed in the design. All physical servers to be migrated exist on the same VLAN. Which recommendation should the architect make to address the customer requirement with regard to virt

An architect is designing storage for a new vSphere environment to meet the following requirements: Asynchronous replication is required between two sites. The impact on the storage layer should not impact the performance of the compute layer. Each application tier will require different replication attributes. Virtual machine live migration across compute and storage must be supported. Virtual machine aware back up will be leveraged. Operational management overhead should be minimized. Operational automati

An architect is creating a network design for a new vSphere environment. Based on customer requirements, the environment must support the following types of traffic: Management vMotion vSAN Fault Tolerance Virtual machine traffic, which cannot be impacted by other types of traffic Which design recommendation can the architect make for a resilient infrastructure with vSphere network service tiering?

An architect is designing a new vSphere cluster. The requirement is to provide a total of 96 CPU cores and 1.5 TB RAM across all hosts. The following information has been provided: Two different physical hardware profiles are available for the ESXi hosts in the cluster. -Profile 1: 16 CPU cores and 256 GB RAM -Profile 2: 32 CPU cores and 512 GB RAM Profile 2 is twice as expensive to purchase as Profile 1. Which two aspects should the architect consider when selecting the hardware profile? (Choose two.)

A customer requires the use of data encryption to ensure data is not accessible when a drive is removed from the primary storage platform. However, there is also a requirement to use deduplication and compression against all workloads in order to conserve space. Which solution meets the customer requirements?

An architect is designing a new greenfield environment with 600 ESXi hosts in an automated fashion. The engineering department already has a PXE Boot server, TFTP server, and DHCP server set up with an NFS mount for their current Linux servers. The architect must be able to demonstrate and meet a security requirement to have all infrastructure processes separated. Which recommendation should the architect make for the ESXi host deployment?

An organization’s data scientists are executing a plan to use machine learning (ML). They must have access to graphical processing unit (GPU) capabilities to execute their computational models when needed. The solutions architect needs to design a solution to ensure that GPUs can be shared by multiple virtual machines. Which two solutions should the architect recommend to meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

During a requirements gathering workshop, the customer shares the following diagram regarding their availability service-level agreements (SLAs): The customer wants database application level availability to always take precedence. What should the architect recommend to meet the customer’s requirement?

An architect is tasked with expanding an existing VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) solution so that it can be used to deliver a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) service off-shore development activities. The production environment is currently delivered across two geographically dispersed data centers. The two data centers are currently connected to each other through multiple diversely routed, high bandwidth and low latency links. The current operations management components are deployed to a

A customer has a database cluster with 40/60 read/write ratio and a high IOPs requirement with no contention on an all-flash vSAN cluster. Which two storage settings should be configured for best performance? (Choose two.)

An architect is designing a new VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) that will consist of 100 branch sites connected to a single VMware vCenter Server within the primary data center. To allow for the use of existing automation scripts, there is a requirement to replicate the names of the virtual distributed port groups across all sites. The procurement team purchases licensing and there is no further budget allocated. Which design decision should the architect make to meet this requirement?
