Performance efficiency: The performance efficiency pillar focuses on the efficient use of computing resources to meet requirements, and how to maintain efficiency as demand changes and technologies evolve. Operational Excellence: The operational excellence pillar includes how your organization supports your business objectives, your ability to run workloads effectively, gain insight into their operations, and to continuously improve supporting processes and procedures to deliver business value. I understand why you could think it is C, but I believe the correct answer is B (key part: as demand changes and technologies evolve)

Reference: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/apn/the-6-pillars-of-the-aws-well-architected-framework/ My answer would be B because of the following reason: In the official documentation, for the design principle of pillar "Operational Efficiency" we don't see the work serverless computing mentioned as below: Design Principles There are five design principles for operational excellence in the cloud: Perform operations as code Make frequent, small, reversible changes Refine operations procedures frequently Anticipate failure Learn from all operational failures but we could see the "serverless computing" mentioned in pillar "Performance Efficiency" Design Principles There are five design principles for performance efficiency in the cloud: Democratize advanced technologies Go global in minutes #####Use serverless architectures##### Experiment more often Consider mechanical sympathy

This is not a well worded question. Both B and C are technically correct. The mention of the word "serverless" implies B and not C, but many are ignoring the second requirement which is taking advantage of the tech immediately, which implies C, operational excellence. I'm leaving this question out of my personal scoring.

Replacing physical on-premises compute servers with AWS serverless compute services is a move towards operational excellence because it will allow the company to: Scale workloads up or down as needed. This will help the company to save money on compute resources when they are not needed, and to ensure that they have enough resources to handle spikes in demand. Take advantage of advanced technologies quickly. AWS serverless compute services are constantly being updated with new features and capabilities. By moving to serverless, the company will be able to take advantage of these new features as soon as they are available. Improve operational efficiency. Serverless compute services are designed to be easy to use and manage. This will help the company to reduce the amount of time and effort that is required to manage their infrastructure.

The pillars of AWS cloud are: 1. Operational Excellence 2. Security 3. Reliability 4. Operational Efficiency is the ability to use computing resources efficiently to meet system requirements, and maintain that efficiency as demand changes and technologies evolve. 5. Cost optimization is the ability to run systems to deliver business value at the lowest price point. For example, suppose that you are analyzing your Amazon EC2 compute usage. 6. Sustainability

The reason the company has given for wanting to migrate from physical on-premises compute servers to AWS serverless compute services is that they can "take advantage of advanced technologies quickly after the migration". While performance is naturally a desired objective, this isn't the primary focus of the company in this scenario. So the answer is C. Operational Excellence

Answer is definitely B. If you look at the design principles for each pillar only Performance Efficiency has the following. Key phrase is serverless computing services. Go global in minutes: Deploying your workload in multiple AWS Regions around the world permits you to provide lower latency and a better experience for your customers at minimal cost. Use serverless architectures: Serverless architectures remove the need for you to run and maintain physical servers for traditional compute activities. For example, serverless storage services can act as static websites (removing the need for web servers) and event services can host code. This removes the operational burden of managing physical servers, and can lower transactional costs because managed services operate at cloud scale.
