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 virtual networking?

Refer to the exhibit.
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 will be taking over control of a former Linux server fleet and repurposing the hardware into a new vSphere cluster. The current environment is already connected to the network but the hosts do not have any local disks. Since the fleet hardware is uniform, the architect can use a single ESXi image. All hosts within the cluster have the same CPU and memory capacity.
Which ESXi deployment method should the architect use?

During a transformation project kick-off meeting, an architect highlights specific areas on which to focus while developing the new conceptual design.
Which two of the listed statements are business requirements? (Choose two.)

An architect is tasked with designing a greenfield VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) solution that will be used to deliver a private cloud service for a customer.
During the initial meeting with the service owner and business sponsor, the customer has provided the following information to help inform the design:
The solution must initially support the concurrent running of 300 production and 600 development virtual machines.
The production environment should be delivered across two geographically dispersed data centers. The development environment must be vSphere-based but does not have to be deployed on-premises.
The two data centers are connected to each other through multiple diversely routed, high bandwidth and low latency links.
The customer's server hardware standard document states that all virtual infrastructure hosts must be based on blade architecture only.
The service owner has said that is important to ensure that neither the availability target of 99.5% nor the resource capacity is affected when the operations team completes maintenance activities, such as the monthly software patching and ad-hoc hardware break/fix.
All virtual machine backups must be completed using the existing backup service. The recovery time objective (RTO) for the service is four hours.
The recovery point objective (RPO) of the service is 24 hours.
Given the information from the customer, which two would be classified as assumptions within the design? (Choose two.)
