Read the first 7 Cloud Migration & Multi-Cloud flashcards as text

  1. A company wants to move its on-premises Oracle database to AWS with minimal code changes. Which migration strategy best fits this requirement?

    Answer: Replatform using AWS RDS for Oracle

    Replatforming (lift-tinker-and-shift) to AWS RDS for Oracle preserves the Oracle engine while reducing operational overhead with minimal code changes.

  2. In a multi-cloud strategy, which tool is commonly used to manage infrastructure consistently across AWS, Azure, and GCP?

    Answer: Terraform

    Terraform is a cloud-agnostic IaC tool that supports AWS, Azure, GCP, and many other providers through provider plugins.

  3. Which cloud migration pattern involves decomposing a monolithic application into microservices during the migration process?

    Answer: Refactor/Re-architect

    Refactoring or re-architecting involves redesigning the application, often breaking a monolith into microservices to leverage cloud-native capabilities.

  4. A business requires that certain data never leave a specific geographic region due to data sovereignty laws. Which multi-cloud feature addresses this requirement?

    Answer: Data residency controls

    Data residency controls allow organizations to pin data storage and processing to specific geographic regions, satisfying sovereignty requirements.

  5. What is the primary purpose of a cloud migration factory?

    Answer: To standardize and accelerate migrations using repeatable patterns and tooling

    A cloud migration factory uses standardized processes, automation, and tooling to industrialize and accelerate the migration of workloads at scale.

  6. During a cloud migration assessment, an application is flagged as having high technical debt and low business value. What is the recommended disposition?

    Answer: Retire the application

    Applications with high technical debt and low business value are prime candidates for retirement, eliminating unnecessary cost and complexity.

  7. Which networking approach enables consistent connectivity between workloads distributed across multiple cloud providers?

    Answer: Software-defined WAN (SD-WAN)

    SD-WAN provides vendor-agnostic, policy-driven connectivity across multiple cloud environments and on-premises locations.
