What are two benefits of datacenter virtualization? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is C. More efficient use of resources D. Same hardware footprint for every machine. C (more efficient use of resources) is a foundational benefit of virtualization: server consolidation allows multiple workloads to share physical CPU, memory, and storage, dramatically improving average utilization rates compared to one-app-per-server physical deployments. D…

Explanation

C (more efficient use of resources) is a foundational benefit of virtualization: server consolidation allows multiple workloads to share physical CPU, memory, and storage, dramatically improving average utilization rates compared to one-app-per-server physical deployments. D (same hardware footprint for every machine) reflects hardware abstraction - virtual machines are presented with standardized virtual hardware regardless of the diverse underlying physical servers, simplifying management, imaging, and portability. A is incorrect because virtualization does not reduce data volume; you still back up the same application data (plus VM overhead). B is incorrect because virtualization adds a hypervisor layer that consumes CPU resources - the benefit is better overall utilization, not lower per-application CPU demand.
