Selecting a deployment method
To build out a successful (simple or multi-region/multi-hypervisor) cloud environment, consider the following deployment methods.
The following sections describe the three cloud deployment methods available and are listed in order, from the simplest to the most advanced procedures to follow.
The first two methods are the simplest means of deploying your cloud, but have limitations in terms of the types of hypervisors and complexity of the topologies that they can deploy. The last option is the most advanced form of deployment that allows for the greatest degree of flexibility, which covers all possible topologies and hypervisors. However, it tends to be slightly more complex than the other options.
Review the explanation of each deployment method. Consider the strengths and limitations of each to help you choose the method that best suits your planned deployment architecture.
