Nutanix Exam NCP-MCA Topic 8 Question 70 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-MCA exam

Question #: 70
Topic #: 8

An administrator has been tasked with creating a multicloud, three-tier application using Calm. The application needs to consist of:

A MongoDB backend database

A NodeJS Javascript runtime environment

An NGINX webserver

The administrator has access to an AWS account, as well as a locally hosted Nutanix cluster. The three parts of the application should be fully redundant, and be able to tolerate either a cloud provider outage, or a local Nutanix cluster outage.

What is the most appropriate solution the administrator should choose in order to meet the requirements?

ACreate a Calm blueprint with MongoDB, Node/S, and NGINX VMs running on Nutanix, as well as an NGINX server running in AWS on US-WEST-1 and US-EAST-1.

BCreate a Calm blueprint with MongoDB, Node/S and NGINX VMs running on Nutanix, and a separate blueprint for MongoDB, NodeJS, and NGINX running in AWS on US-WEST-1 and US-EAST-1.

CCreate a Calm blueprint with MongoDB, NodelS, and NGINX VMs running on Nutanix, as well as MongoDB, NodeJS, and NGINX servers running in AWS on US-WEST-1 and US-EAST-1.

DCreate a Calm blueprint with MongoDB, NodelS, and NGINX VMs running on Nutanix, then manually create three EC2 instances for MongoDB, NodeJS and NGINX in AWS running on US-WEST-1 and
US-EAST-1.

Suggested Answer: A

A Category in Nutanix is a grouping of entities (such as VMs, hosts, clusters, etc.) into a key-value pair. Categories are used to organize and manage resources more effectively by tagging them with meaningful identifiers.

Wow, this question really tests our understanding of multi-cloud architecture! I think option C is the way to go - having the full stack running on both Nutanix and AWS ensures redundancy in case of an outage.
