Which platform is hardware-independent and designed for multi-tenant deployments on Citrix ADC?

• A. SDX
• B. CPX
• C. MPX
• D. VPX

Answer: (D)

The idea being tested is running Citrix ADC in a way that is not tied to specific hardware while supporting multiple tenants. VPX is the Citrix ADC virtual appliance that runs on standard hypervisors (such as ESXi, Hyper-V, or KVM) or in cloud environments, so it isn’t bound to a particular hardware box. This software-based approach makes the platform hardware-independent and ideal for multi-tenant deployments, because you can create and run separate VPX instances for different tenants, each with its own configuration, IPs, and policies, all on shared underlying hardware.

The other options are more hardware-oriented or container-focused. MPX is a physical hardware appliance, SDX is a hardware platform that partitions a single device to host multiple ADCs, and CPX is a containerized ADC for cloud-native use. While they have their own use cases, VPX specifically provides hardware independence with clean multi-tenant isolation through separate virtual instances.
