What are two characteristics of a greenfield deployment? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• AA greenfield deployment means that there are fewer restrictions.
• BA greenfield deployment is more common.
• CA greenfield deployment always implies integration with other vendor products.
• DA greenfield deployment means a new deployment.

• A
  92% (24)
• B
  4% (1)
• C
  4% (1)

Explanation

A greenfield deployment refers to building or deploying something in a brand-new environment with no existing infrastructure - like constructing on a field with no prior development - making D correct by definition. Because there are no legacy systems, constraints, or compatibility requirements to work around, greenfield environments naturally come with fewer restrictions, making A also correct.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B is incorrect - greenfield deployments are actually less common than brownfield (existing environment) deployments, since most organizations already have established infrastructure.
• C is incorrect - the opposite is closer to true; greenfield deployments typically avoid integration with other vendors' products, since you're starting fresh with no prior technology lock-in.

Memory tip: Think "green = fresh, open grass" - a blank slate with no fences (fewer restrictions) and nothing previously built on it (new deployment). Contrast with "brownfield = existing, developed land" where you must work around what's already there.
