An organization is using FlashBlade with S3 multi-site writable buckets, with replication enabled in different data centers. They are using a single LAG configuration. However, when the application is reading or writing heavily (100% utilization on the uplink LAG interface) the replication lag increases significantly causing application errors. The network team has reported that there is lower than normal utilization of the cross-site link.   What should the architect do to reduce the replication lag?

An organization is migrating their 1200 VMware VMs to the AWS cloud within seven months. All of the VMs are running VMware File System (VMFS). The organization’s 3PB of data, including boot volumes, is currently stored on Pure FlashArrays in their data center.    The organization has a Direct Connect with AWS to a local region with 10ms of roundtrip latency and has configured multiple Cloud Block Store (CBS) arrays in that region.   What is a valid storage migration design to accomplish this in the time required?

A small machine tool producer wants to determine whether to produce in-house or contract with a supplier. In-house production incurs fixed costs of $8,000 and variable costs of $60 per unit. The supplier has no fixed costs, only variable costs of $100 per unit. For what range of output would contracting with a supplier be more cost-effective than in-house production?

Refer to the exhibit. While performing a migration to new storage, a customer is redesigning their SAN fabric, using several switches in a core/edge configuration. Each switch has four ISLs connections. The hosts on the edge are all reporting slow responses. The storage is running at under 20% of its possible throughput. What is MOST likely to be causing this issue?

An administrator has a project for multiple FlashArrays at a primary site that requires multiple site protection, both Zero and Near-Zero RPO, Tier 1 network latency of less than 11ms, and Tier 2 network latency of 100ms. Snapshots must be completed hourly and be protected against cyberattack, administrative credential compromise, and accidental deletion. Which combination of protection should the administrator deploy?
