Which of the following is NOT listed as a supported deployment option for NetApp StorageGRID?

• A. StorageGRID hardware appliances
• B. ESXi
• C. Docker
• D. Kubernetes

Answer: (D)

StorageGRID can be run in a few official ways: on dedicated hardware appliances, as virtual machines on VMware ESXi, or in container form using Docker. These options cover physical, virtualized, and containerized deployments that NetApp supports for StorageGRID.

Kubernetes isn’t listed as a supported deployment option, so it isn’t an officially supported way to run StorageGRID. While Docker containers are supported, Kubernetes would add cluster orchestration that isn’t part of the supported deployment model.
