VCP-VMC 2024 Question 14
Single answerA company is planning to migrate its on-premises workloads to VMware Cloud on AWS. They need high-speed, low-latency connectivity between their on-premises data center and the VMware Cloud SDDC. Which connectivity option would best meet this requirement?
- A
VMware Transit Connect (AWS Direct Connect integration)
- B
Site-to-Site VPN
- C
Hybrid Cloud Extension (HCX) over the public internet
- D
VMware Cloud Console Access
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The best option for achieving high-speed, low-latency connectivity between an on-premises data center and VMware Cloud on AWS is VMware Transit Connect with AWS Direct Connect integration. This option provides dedicated private connectivity, ensuring optimal performance for workloads being migrated or operated in a hybrid environment. Other options like VPN or HCX over the public internet do not meet the low-latency, high-speed requirement as effectively.
- A. Correct.
VMware Transit Connect, integrated with AWS Direct Connect, provides high-speed, low-latency private connectivity, making it suitable for use cases requiring performance similar to on-premises data centers.
- B. Incorrect.
Site-to-Site VPN is a cost-effective option but typically has higher latency and lower bandwidth compared to direct private connectivity options like AWS Direct Connect.
- C. Incorrect.
Hybrid Cloud Extension (HCX) over the public internet is a viable migration solution but does not guarantee low latency or high-speed connectivity due to the nature of public internet connections.
- D. Incorrect.
VMware Cloud Console Access is for management purposes and does not provide connectivity for workload traffic between on-premises data centers and VMware Cloud SDDCs.
