The customer requires Kubernetes-based application deployment within a new VCF 5.2 instance without additional licensing costs. VCF includes foundational components and optional features, some requiring separate licenses. Let’s evaluate each option:

Option A: Tanzu Mission ControlTanzu Mission Control (TMC) is a centralized management platform for Kubernetes clusters across environments. It’s a SaaS offering requiring a separate subscription, not included in the base VCF license. TheVCF 5.2 Architectural Guideexcludes TMC from standard VCF features, making it incompatible with the no-budget constraint.

Option B: VCF EdgeVCF Edge refers to edge computing deployments (e.g., remote sites) using lightweight VCF instances. It’s not a Kubernetes-specific feature and doesn’t inherently provide Kubernetes capabilities without additional configuration or licensing (e.g., Tanzu). TheVCF 5.2 Administration Guidepositions VCF Edge as an architecture, not a Kubernetes solution.

Option C: Aria AutomationAria Automation (formerly vRealize Automation) provides cloud management and orchestration, including some Kubernetes integration via Tanzu Service Mesh or custom workflows. However, it’s an optional component in VCF, often requiring additional licensing beyond the base VCF bundle, per theVCF 5.2 Licensing Guide. It’s not mandatory for basic Kubernetes and violates the budget restriction.

Option D: IaaS control planeIn VCF 5.2, the IaaS control plane includes VMware Cloud Director or the native vSphere with Tanzu capability (via NSX and vSphere 7.x). vSphere with Tanzu, enabled through the Workload Management feature, provides a Supervisor Cluster for Kubernetes without additional licensing beyond VCF’s core components (vSphere, vSAN, NSX). TheVCF 5.2 Architectural Guideconfirms that vSphere with Tanzu is included in VCF editions supporting NSX, allowing Kubernetes-based application deployment (e.g., Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters) at no extra cost.

Conclusion:TheIaaS control plane (D), leveraging vSphere with Tanzu, meets the requirement for Kubernetes deployment within VCF 5.2’s existing licensing, satisfying the no-budget constraint.References:

In VCF, the logical design documents how design decisions align with requirements, often through justifications, assumptions, or implications. Here, adding a new cluster within the management domain for dedicated management tooling workloads requires a rationale in the logical design. Option A, a justification that the separate cluster enhances "flexibility for manageability and connectivity," aligns with VCF’s principles of workload segregation and operational efficiency. It explains why the decisionwas made—improving management tooling’s flexibility—without assuming unstated outcomes (like B’s "complete isolation," which isn’t supported by the scenario) or merely stating effects (C and D). The management domain in VCF 5.2 can host additional clusters for such purposes, and this justification ties directly to the requirement for dedicated capacity.
