## Question

In which type of environment is vSAN storage used as a mandatory, primary storage?

## Correct Answer

_See scenario._

## Explanation

Selected Answer: A
vSAN (VMware vSphere Storage Appliance) is typically used as primary storage in VMware environments, particularly in situations where hyper-converged infrastructure is desired. Among the options you provided, vSAN is used as mandatory, primary storage in:

A. VMware Cloud on AWS

VMware Cloud on AWS leverages vSAN to provide software-defined storage as part of its infrastructure services. It's an example of how vSAN can be utilized for primary storage in a cloud environment that's an extension of the on-premises VMware environment.

The other options (B, C, and D) do not typically use vSAN as mandatory primary storage in the same way that VMware Cloud on AWS does. These options are more focused on different aspects of VMware technologies and may use other storage solutions depending on specific requirements.
