Question 1
Q1An architect is engaging with a financial institution to design a new private cloud using VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0. During the stakeholder interview, the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) states: "All financial transaction data must remain within the country of origin to comply with data sovereignty laws."
How should the architect classify this statement in the design documentation?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Constraints are restrictions that limit the design choices. A legal or regulatory mandate, such as data sovereignty, is a business constraint because it limits where data can be placed, removing the architect's freedom to choose any location.
