1Z0-997-26 Workload Migration Practice Question
You are designing a high-performance computing (HPC) workload migration to OCI. The application consists of tightly coupled MPI (Message Passing Interface) jobs that require extreme low latency and high throughput. Which THREE OCI architecture components must you deploy to satisfy these HPC requirements? (Choose three.)
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
OCI Cluster Networks with RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) capable bare metal compute shapes
OCI HPC deployments require Cluster Networks with RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) over RoCE, high-performance NVMe storage, and Compute Placement Groups to guarantee ultra-low latency.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Standard OCI Archive Storage for runtime application data files
Why it's wrong here
Archive storage has multi-hour retrieval times and cannot support high-performance HPC runtime files.
- ✗
OCI Shared micro-tenant burstable VM instances connected via public internet gateways
Why it's wrong here
Burstable VMs introduce noisy neighbors and high latency, unsuitable for HPC.
- ✓
OCI Cluster Networks with RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) capable bare metal compute shapes
Why this is correct
RDMA cluster networks provide sub-microsecond latency and high bandwidth required for MPI workloads.
- ✓
OCI Compute Placement Groups configured with cluster strategy
Why this is correct
Cluster placement groups ensure instances are placed physically close together on the same low-latency network fabric.
- ✓
High-performance local NVMe storage attached directly to the bare metal compute instances
Why this is correct
Local NVMe storage offers extremely high IOPS and throughput for scratch space during HPC computations.
