Which two image types are stored by the Nutanix Image Service?

VMDK
OVF
ISO
QCOW2

The correct answer is: ISO

The correct answer identifies the image types that can be stored by the Nutanix Image Service. The Image Service is designed to manage and store various image formats that are commonly used for virtual machines. The ISO image type refers to an archive file that contains an exact copy of a file system, typically used for distributing software and operating systems. It is widely used for booting and installations in virtualized environments, making it a relevant choice for storage in the Nutanix Image Service. Regarding the other options, while VMDK, OVF, and QCOW2 are also virtual machine image formats, they are not primarily associated with the Nutanix Image Service's capabilities in this context. VMDK is a format from VMware, OVF is a packaging format that describes virtual appliances, and QCOW2 is associated with the QEMU/KVM ecosystem. Therefore, the focus remains on the image type that is directly supported for the purposes of software installation and distribution within the Nutanix platform.
