2V0-621D · Question #232

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. Datacenter virtualization significantly improves resource utilization by consolidating multiple virtual machines onto fewer physical servers. It also provides a consistent virtual hardware footprint for all virtual machines, simplifying management.

Why each option

Datacenter virtualization significantly improves resource utilization by consolidating multiple virtual machines onto fewer physical servers. It also provides a consistent virtual hardware footprint for all virtual machines, simplifying management.

ALess data to back up

Virtualization typically centralizes more data onto fewer physical devices, often increasing the overall data footprint that needs to be backed up, rather than reducing it.

BLess CPU power required for a given application

Virtualization introduces a hypervisor layer, which incurs some overhead, meaning a given application might actually require slightly more, or at least not less, CPU power than running directly on bare metal.

CMore efficient use of resourcesCorrect

Virtualization allows multiple virtual machines to share the resources of a single physical host, leading to higher utilization of CPU, memory, and storage, and thus a more efficient use of expensive datacenter hardware resources.

DSame hardware footprint for every machineCorrect

In a virtualized environment, virtual machines are abstracted from the underlying physical hardware, presenting a standardized virtual hardware configuration to each guest operating system. This consistent virtual hardware footprint simplifies VM provisioning, management, and portability regardless of the physical server it resides on.
