Question 1 of 30
A company is planning to expand its storage area network (SAN) to accommodate a growing number of virtual machines (VMs) and applications. The current SAN architecture supports 100 VMs, but projections indicate that the company will need to support 300 VMs within the next year. The existing SAN can be scaled by adding additional storage nodes, each capable of supporting 50 VMs. If the company decides to implement a new SAN architecture that allows for dynamic scaling, which of the following strategies would best ensure that the SAN remains scalable and efficient as the number of VMs increases?
Implement a modular SAN design that allows for the addition of storage nodes without downtime, ensuring that resources can be allocated dynamically based on demand.
Increase the capacity of the existing storage nodes to support more VMs, even if it requires downtime for upgrades.
Limit the number of VMs per storage node to maintain performance, which may require a complete redesign of the SAN architecture.
Utilize a single large storage node to handle all VMs, minimizing the complexity of the SAN design.
