Developers at

You are the datacenter administrator for a company named Contoso, Ltd. The network contains a
server that has System Center 2012 Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) installed. You create four
private clouds. Developers at Contoso have two Windows Azure subscriptions. Contoso creates a
partnership with another company named A.Datum. The A.Datum network contains a System Center
2012 Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) infrastructure that contains three clouds. Developers at

A.
Datum have two Windows Azure subscriptions. You deploy System Center 2012 App Controller at
Datum. You plan to manage the clouds and the Windows Azure subscriptions for both companies
from the App Controller portal. You need to identify the minimum number of subscriptions and the
minimum number connections required for the planned management. How many connections and
subscriptions should you identify?
Two connections and four subscriptions

Explanation:
“Contoso has four clouds.”
Connecting to a private cloud means establishing a connection to a VMM 2012
Management Server. However, you can also add a Windows Azure subscription to App Controller.
Before anyone can use App Controller, an administrator must configure it to communicate with
VMM for private clouds, or Windows Azure for public cloud services. Connecting App Controller to
VMM is straightforward.
Connecting (or subscribing) App Controller to an Azure subscription requires a little more work.
One of the coolest features of App Controller is its support for multiple connections and
subscriptions. If for business reasons you implement different VMM deployments, you can connect
App Controller to each deployment. Similarly, if you have multiple subscriptions to the Microsoft
Azure service, you can add them to App Controller.
