Nutanix Exam NCP-CI-AWS Topic 2 Question 23 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-CI-AWS exam
Question #: 23
Topic #: 2
[All NCP-CI-AWS Questions]

An administrator is deploying a new cluster on AWS and would like to ensure the data is encrypted. Due to cost constraints, the deployment will leverage the native local key manager (LKM).

What is the minimal number of nodes needed to support the Nutanix native LKM?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Given the company's large spend commitments as part of an AWS Enterprise Discount Program (EDP) totaling $15 million, purchasing Nutanix licenses through the AWS Marketplace ensures that the costs contribute to the EDP commitment.

This approach integrates the Nutanix license costs into the overall AWS spend, thereby maximizing the benefits of the EDP.

Purchasing directly from Nutanix or leveraging existing licenses might not count towards the AWS EDP commitment, and trial licenses are typically for evaluation purposes and do not contribute to the committed spend.

Reference: Refer to the Nutanix and AWS documentation on licensing and marketplace purchases, and EDP program details.

I'd just go with A) 1 node and hope for the best. Who needs data encryption anyway? Just throw a few extra padlocks on the server and call it a day.

User 1: I think A) 1 node should be enough for the Nutanix native LKM.

I'm leaning towards B) 2 nodes. Though 4 nodes might sound more secure, I don't think the cost constraints mentioned in the question would allow for that. 2 nodes should be the minimal requirement.

D) 4 nodes seems like the safe choice. You can never be too careful when it comes to data encryption, right? Better to have a few extra nodes to support the key management.

I agree with Caitlin, having 2 nodes would provide better fault tolerance in case one node fails.

I'm going with C) 3. Nutanix's LKM is designed to be highly available, so it requires a minimum of 3 nodes to ensure data resilience and failover.

Sounds like a solid choice. 3 nodes should provide the necessary redundancy for data encryption.

I think the answer is B) 2. The native LKM in Nutanix is a distributed key management service, so it needs at least 2 nodes to function properly.

I disagree, I believe the answer is B) 2 because you need at least two nodes for redundancy.
