Explanation

A Software-Defined Data Center (SDDC) virtualizes all infrastructure components - compute, storage, networking, and security - and can be deployed across three distinct environments: on premises (E) as a private cloud, hybrid cloud (D) blending on-premises with cloud resources, and public cloud (F) by running the SDDC stack on providers like AWS or Azure. These three represent the actual deployment targets that SDDC architectures are designed to support.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (Native cloud): "Cloud-native" describes an application design philosophy, not an SDDC deployment model.
• B (Secure cloud): Security is a feature embedded within SDDC, not a standalone solution type it builds.
• C (Hyperscale): Hyperscale refers to the massive scaling capacity of providers like AWS or Google - it's an attribute of infrastructure, not an SDDC target environment.

Memory tip: Think "OHP" - On-premises, Hybrid, Public - the three places SDDC lives. If a choice describes a property (secure, hyperscale) or an app design pattern (native cloud), it's a distractor.
