An architect is designing a solution for a customer that will include VMware Cloud on AWS. The solution will enable the customer to progress with their business objective to migrate all of their VMware vSphere workloads to the cloud and completely exit their physical data center. The following information was provided by key stakeholders as part of the initial design workshop:
The customer already consumes a number of AWS native services as part of their existing application landscape.
The customer currently uses both VMware vRealize Log Insight Cloud and VMware vRealize Operations Cloud to monitor their existing on-premises vSphere solution.
The customer currently has configured Federated Identity Management to enable role based access control to VMware Cloud services using their on-premises Active Directory.
What should the architect recommend to ensure that all the prerequisites for deploying a VMware Cloud on AWS solution are successfully met while minimizing operational complexity?
A. A new VMware Cloud account must be created to enable access to the VMware Cloud on AWS service.
B. A new AWS account must be created to enable dedicated connectivity for VMware Cloud on AWS.
C. The existing VMware Cloud account should be used to enable access to the VMware Cloud on AWS service.
D. The ownership of the existing AWS account should be transferred to VMware so that the VMware Cloud on AWS software-defined data center (SDDC) can be deployed.
C is correct.
