VCP-CMA 2024 Question 30
Single answerYour organization is deploying VMware Aria Automation in a production environment with high availability requirements. The deployment must support fault tolerance and scale to handle increased workloads during peak usage. Which deployment type should you choose, and why?
- A
Standard deployment, as it is suitable for small to medium-sized environments with minimal redundancy requirements
- B
Clustered deployment, as it provides high availability and scalability for production environments
- C
Standard deployment, as it supports fault tolerance and is easier to configure in production
- D
Clustered deployment, as it is ideal for testing and development environments where high availability is not critical
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The clustered deployment type is designed to meet the needs of production environments that require high availability, fault tolerance, and scalability. It consists of multiple nodes working together, providing resilience against node failures and the ability to handle higher workloads. In contrast, a standard deployment is suited for smaller environments or non-critical workloads where these features are not essential.
- A. Incorrect.
Standard deployment is typically designed for small to medium-sized environments or non-critical workloads where redundancy and scalability are not primary concerns.
- B. Correct.
Clustered deployment is the correct choice for production environments with high availability and scalability requirements, as it ensures fault tolerance and can handle increased workloads.
- C. Incorrect.
Standard deployment does not inherently provide fault tolerance or the scalability needed for a production environment with high availability requirements.
- D. Incorrect.
Clustered deployment is specifically designed for critical production environments, not for testing or development environments where high availability is not a priority.
