SAP-C02 Exam - Question 527


A company wants to migrate its website to AWS. The website uses containers that are deployed in an on-premises, self-managed Kubernetes cluster. All data for the website is stored in an on-premises PostgreSQL database.

The company has decided to migrate the on-premises Kubernetes cluster to an Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) cluster. The EKS cluster will use EKS managed node groups with a static number of nodes. The company will also migrate the on-premises database to an Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL database.

A solutions architect needs to estimate the total cost of ownership (TCO) for this workload before the migration.

Which solution will provide the required TCO information?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

To estimate the total cost of ownership (TCO) for migrating the workload to AWS, the most appropriate solution is to use Migration Evaluator. Migration Evaluator provides tools to analyze the current environment and generate reports that include the estimated costs for running the workload on AWS. By running the Migration Evaluator Collector, configuring a scenario, and exporting a Quick Insights report, you can obtain a comprehensive TCO analysis, encompassing both the Amazon EKS migration and the Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL database migration. Other options, such as using AWS DMS or AWS Application Migration Service, do not offer the same level of comprehensive TCO analysis.

A Migration Evaluator is used to estimate TCO.

Option B is incorrect because AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) is used for migrating databases, not for estimating the TCO. Additionally, the AWS Pricing Calculator alone cannot provide a comprehensive TCO analysis for a complex migration scenario involving Kubernetes and databases. Option C is incorrect because AWS Application Migration Service is primarily used for migrating and modernizing applications, not for estimating the TCO of a migration.

Option B (AWS DMS assessment + AWS Pricing Calculator) is typically more appropriate and practical.
