[ INTERVIEW QUESTION ] Loadbalancer and Clustering.

Impressive answer! What do you know about Loadbalancer and Clustering? What on VMware can you relate those features with. This is your best answer... A NSX Advanced Load Balancer in vSphere is used to forward requests to either one server or other, but one server does not use the other server’s resources. Also, one resource does not share its state with other resources. Ex: The NSX Edge load balancer enables high-availability service and distributes the network traffic load among multiple servers. 

A Cluster in vSphere is (1) A group of resources that are trying to achieve a common objective, and are aware of one another Ex: ESXi hosts.  (2) Clustering usually involves setting up the resources (servers usually) to exchange details on a particular channel (port) and keep exchanging their states, so a resource’s state is replicated at other places as well. The interviewer expectation is that you will highlight Loadbalancer and Clustering in vSphere.
