Migration Flashcards
Q: What solution will meet the requirements of migrating a 10 PB dataset from an on-premises data center to Amazon S3 within 6 weeks, given the limited internet bandwidth available?
A: Order multiple AWS Snowball devices. Copy the data to the devices. Send the devices to AWS to copy the data to Amazon S3.
Q: How should a solutions architect design a secure and reliable solution to migrate on-premises data to Amazon S3 with data integrity validation?
A: Deploy an AWS DataSync agent on-premises. Configure the DataSync agent to perform the online data transfer to an S3 bucket.
Q: What should a solutions architect recommend to migrate a legacy on-premises application to the AWS Cloud with minimal changes and operational overhead?
A: Use AWS Elastic Beanstalk to deploy the application and manage the underlying infrastructure.
Q: How should a solutions architect design a disaster recovery solution for Amazon EC2 instances to meet a recovery time objective (RTO) of less than 4 hours?
A: Create Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) to back up the EC2 instances. Copy the AMIs to a secondary AWS Region. Automate infrastructure deployment in the secondary Region by using AWS CloudFormation.
Q: What solution will meet the requirements of migrating a Windows file server from on-premises to the AWS Cloud with minimal application changes and operational overhead?
A: Deploy an AWS Storage Gateway file gateway to present the on-premises file shares as an Amazon S3 bucket.
Q: How should a solutions architect design a hybrid storage solution to migrate and archive on-premises data to the AWS Cloud?
A: Use AWS Storage Gateway in cached volumes mode to cache frequently accessed data on-premises and store the full dataset in Amazon S3.
