What is the minimum number of nodes required?

Refer to the exhibit.

Your company is currently using a traditional SAN storage network. The server infrastructure is partially virtualized. There is a public cloud in place that is used to test development and application migration to cloud.

Business requirements:

– Consolidate the network, storage, and compute resources

– Simplify network management and storage provisioning

– Maintain application performance

– A disaster recovery plan to meet RTO / RPO targets

Other considerations:

– All data must be secured at rest and in-flight

– Include an app development platform

Refer to Case 6.

You are sizing the compute capacity in a hyper-converged infrastructure solution. Each node has 55 TB of storage capacity. You have calculated the total cloud storage requirement to be 700 TB.
