Question
A company wants to use the Cisco hyperconverged system in two data centers. The company plans to implement five HX servers in each data center, and there is no connectivity between the data centers or between the data centers and the internet. Which solution must the company implement in each data center?
Options
- Aedge HX cluster
- Bstretched HX cluster
- CROBO HX cluster
- Dstandard HX cluster

Why each option
Given two independent data centers each with five HX servers and no inter-site or internet connectivity, the company must implement a standard HX cluster in each data center.
An edge HX cluster is typically designed for smaller remote locations that are often connected to a central data center, which does not fit the description of two independent, similarly sized data centers.
A stretched HX cluster requires highly available, low-latency, and high-bandwidth connectivity between two data centers to form a single logical cluster, directly contradicting the requirement of "no connectivity between the data centers."
A ROBO (Remote Office/Branch Office) HX cluster is generally a smaller deployment (e.g., 2-3 nodes) intended for remote sites that typically connect back to a central site, which does not align with the two independent data centers, each with five servers and no inter-site connectivity.
A standard HX cluster is designed as an independent, self-contained hyperconverged cluster deployed within a single data center, requiring no external connectivity for its core operation. With five HX servers per data center and no connectivity between sites, deploying a standard HX cluster in each data center allows each site to operate autonomously and leverage the full benefits of hyperconvergence locally.
