A customer is leveraging vRA to provision workloads to a consolidated VCF domain cluster. Due to the increased demand of customer workloads, more capacity is now needed. The architect provides information on scaling the customer’s consolidated design.
Which statement accurately characterizes this design?
A consolidated design should be scaled cautiously to meet the rising demand. As the number of nodes in a consolidated design increases to 8 or 10, transitioning to a standard design becomes advisable to efficiently manage the expanded capacity and ensure better performance. This approach leverages workload domains to optimize the infrastructure for larger scales, thus ensuring a smoother and more scalable design transition.
Pleased to confirm B is correct! Found the exact statement on the VCF's v4.3 book from the VMware course. "When more capacity is needed, scaling the consolidated design is an option but a much better design option for a larger scale is to use workload domains. After you reach 8 or 10 nodes in the consolidated design, consider migrating to a standard design. If you migrate to a standard design, the default small vCenter Server Appliance size should be enough for most designs." - YoMeroElCarnicero
