Answer
- A. Stretched Cluster
- B. Continuous Availability
- C. Simple Correct
- D. High Availability
Explanation
VCF 9.0 documents two Operations for Logs/Operations models—Simple (Standard) and High Availability (Cluster)—and highlight that Simple is the minimal footprint option intended for test/dev: “Architecture flexibility: Can be deployed in a Simple or Highly Available Cluster deployment. Recommended deployment is a HA Cluster… Simple deployment is for test/dev environments, it is not for production use cases.” By contrast, HA/clustered models increase resources to provide redundancy at scale. Since the requirement is the smallest resource footprint, the Simple model is the correct selection. (Stretched/Continuous Availability options are not listed VCF Operations models in this context.)
