Actual exam question for VMware's 2V0-13.25 exam
Question #: 69
Topic #: 4
Question #: 69
Topic #: 4
An architect is responsible for designing a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF)-based private cloud for a customer. During the customer requirements gathering workshop, the customer has stated the following:
* All Platinum applications/services must have an availability SLA of 99.99%.
* All Gold applications/services must have an availability SLA of 99.9%.
* All Silver applications/services must have an availability SLA of 99%.
* The private cloud must have an availability SLA of 99.9%.
What should the architect recommend to meet the stated requirements?
* All Platinum applications/services must have an availability SLA of 99.99%.
* All Gold applications/services must have an availability SLA of 99.9%.
* All Silver applications/services must have an availability SLA of 99%.
* The private cloud must have an availability SLA of 99.9%.
What should the architect recommend to meet the stated requirements?
Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer
The overall private cloud SLA is99.9%, butPlatinum applications require 99.99%, which exceeds the infrastructure SLA. VMware design methodology states:
* If an application's SLA ishigher than the infrastructure SLA, thenthe application itself must provide the additional resilience(e.g., clustering, active-active deployment, or application-level HA).
* Options A and B reduce flexibility or impose unnecessary complexity.
* Option D (Proactive HA) improves resiliency but cannot guarantee99.99%, since Proactive HA still depends on underlying infrastructure SLA.
Therefore, the only valid recommendation is thatPlatinum workloads must implement resilience at the application layer.
