How many rack units (Rus) of space are required to support a multi-chassis FlashBlade with 40 blades?
What type of network connection load balancing does FlashBlade use?
A customer has a FlashBlade and wants to use it to store data for an application that runs on Linux. The FlashBlade has four Data VIPs and is connected with four 40Gbe links connected to the Top-of-Rack switch in a virtual port-channel with trunking enabled. The Linux host has a single 40Gbe NIC and is configured with a single mount point located at /mnt/appdata. nconnect is not enabled.
What is the maximum throughput the customer should expect when reading data from the mount point?
After revising Cloud-First strategy, a customer’s CFO asks an architect to recommend which workloads should be moved to FlashBlade.
Which two workloads will be successful on FlashBlade? (Select two.)
A customer offers subscription access to E-books. The customer wants to be able to enable and disable access to the E-book efficiently.
What should the architect do?
A customer is architecting a new distributed application in their datacenter.
Which network device should be used for optimal network performance?
A customer practices agile development, and they are having performance issues with builds of the most actively developed software suite as they attempt additional concurrent builds. What is causing the issue?
A customer is developing a AI workflow that Ingests sensor data to FlashBlade NFS from its cloud edge collection point for furthers analysis.
The customer’s HPC cluster mounts NFS to train the data but S3 to label.
Which challenge will the architect experience with this design?
The customer wants to build a software QA infrastructure using modern big data tools like Spark and Kafka. The goal is to process 50 billion events per day and provide feedback in real-time in less than 5 seconds.
The architect needs to create a FlashBlade configuration to meet the capacity and performance requirements using the following assumptions:
4 RSyslog servers accessing FlashBlade via NFS
6 servers accessing FlashBlade via S3
Capacity: 6TB + 18TB + 18TB
Each protocol will create a concurrent write and / or read throughput of 6GB/s
Which configuration should the architect use to meet these requirements?
An oil company moves geological data between their offices in Dubai and Houston for redundancy. The data is accessed via NFS mounts on a cluster of three 10GB connected Linux servers at each location.
A series of cron jobs are leveraged to replicate data from data storage pool A in Dubai to data storage B in Houston and from data storage A in Houston to data storage pool B in Dubai.
Data in storage pool A is read-write, updated by 50 cellular connected data collector running in the field, and deleted after 30 days.
Data in the storage pool B is read-only, queried by the firm’s analytics team, and copied to a cloud-based archive repository every 30 days.
The total amount of data in pool A in Dubai is 1.5PB
The total amount of data in pool B in Houston is 500TB
The data is not expected to grow in the next 12 months and is compressed by the application.
Which configuration should the architect present to meet this customer needs?
A . A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 52TB blades for each site focusing on simplicity.
B. A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 17TB blades for each site focusing on performance.
C. A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 52TB blades for each site and third-party replication software. ***
D. A Multi-Chassis FlashBlade with 17TB blades for each site and third-party replication software.
