AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 Exam - Question 356

Question

A company is planning to migrate to the AWS Cloud. The company hosts many applications on Windows servers and Linux servers. Some of the servers are physical, and some of the servers are virtual. The company uses several types of databases in its on-premises environment. The company does not have an accurate inventory of its on-premises servers and applications.

The company wants to rightsize its resources during migration. A solutions architect needs to obtain information about the network connections and the application relationships. The solutions architect must assess the company’s current environment and develop a migration plan.

Which solution will provide the solutions architect with the required information to develop the migration plan?

Examice · Accepted Answer

To develop an accurate migration plan, the company first needs to obtain detailed information about its on-premises environment, including network connections and application relationships. Given that the company's inventory is incomplete, it's essential to collect data directly from the servers. Using AWS Migration Hub and installing the AWS Application Discovery Agent on the servers will capture comprehensive details about system configurations, performances, running processes, and network connections. Deploying the Migration Hub Strategy Recommendations application data collector will then help in generating a report with the necessary insights. Therefore, using AWS Migration Hub along with the AWS Application Discovery Agent and data collector is the most appropriate solution for this scenario.

Always remember. If you want to find data for migration that is related to
1. Network, system performance, running process, etc
2. The current on-prem load that you need to find has physical servers in it.
Always use an Application discovery agent.
so A and C are out (since they use agentless discovery which is only used for on-prem VMs)
Between B and D: D is wrong the question itself mentions we are not aware of the current load so import data is not possible.

Correct ans is B

The Discovery Agent captures system configuration, system performance, running processes, and details of the network connections between systems.

The Agentless Collector is only installed as an OVA on the VMware vCenter so it doesn't apply to all servers.

Why not D?
AWS Migration Hub (Migration Hub) import allows you to import details of your on-premises environment directly into Migration Hub without using the Application Discovery Service Agentless Collector (Agentless Collector) or AWS Application Discovery Agent (Discovery Agent)
