The exam encompasses a combination of VCP and vCAP design model questions, focusing on various components of VCF, such as the VCF Architecture model, VCF Availability, Manageability, Performance, Recoverability, and Security (AMPRS). It also delves into VCF Components Capacity Planning, Disaster Recovery, Scalability, vSAN, NSX networking, vLCM, Aria Operations sizing, Aria Automation lease policy, vRA RBAC, RPO, RTO, and VCF Identity integrations. I discovered that thorough reading is essential for selecting the correct answer, necessitating careful consideration of the question and an understanding of the key points involved. Having completed the VCP-VCF Administration exam first bolstered my confidence to tackle the VCP-VCF Architect exam, which I successfully cleared on my first attempt. My preparation for the VCP-VCF Architect Exam included several steps: reviewing the VCP-VCF Architect exam guide, completing the VMware Cloud Foundation: Deploy, Manage, Configure and VMware vSphere: Design On-Demand training, and studying the VCF Design Guide. Additionally, an excellent resource was the Vmware {code} Community Exam Guide. I highly recommend joining the Vmware {Code} VCP-VCF Study Group for further tips on preparing for the VCF exam.
