Explanation

vRealize Operations Cloud is a SaaS offering, meaning VMware hosts and manages the backend infrastructure - you don't deploy Primary, Replica, or Data nodes yourself. You simply sign up for or log into the cloud service (B), then deploy a cloud proxy (E) - a lightweight on-premises collector that bridges your local environment to the cloud platform and sends telemetry data back to it.

Options A, C, and D (Primary, Replica, and Data nodes) are all components of the on-premises vRealize Operations deployment model, not the cloud version. They exist to build and scale a self-managed cluster, which is unnecessary when VMware handles the backend as a service.

Memory tip: Think "Cloud = No nodes, just a proxy." The "Cloud" in vRealize Operations Cloud means VMware runs the cluster for you - your only on-prem footprint is the cloud proxy that phones home with data.
