Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional topic 1 question 922 discussion

A company is using a lift-and-shift strategy to migrate applications from several on-premises Windows servers to AWS. The Windows servers will be hosted on
Amazon EC2 instances in the us-east-1 Region.
The company's security policy allows the installation of migration tools on servers. The migration data must be encrypted in transit and encrypted at rest. The applications are business critical. The company needs to minimize the cutover window and minimize the downtime that results from the migration. The company wants to use Amazon CloudWatch and AWS CloudTrail for monitoring.
Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • A. Use AWS Application Migration Service (CloudEndure Migration) to migrate the Windows servers to AWS. Create a Replication Settings template. Install the AWS Replication Agent on the source servers.
  • B. Use AWS DataSync to migrate the Windows servers to AWS. Install the DataSync agent on the source servers. Configure a blueprint for the target servers. Begin the replication process.
  • C. Use AWS Server Migration Service (AWS SMS) to migrate the Windows servers to AWS. Install the SMS Connector on the source servers. Replicate the source servers to AWS. Convert the replicated volumes to AMIs to launch EC2 instances.
  • D. Use AWS Migration Hub to migrate the Windows servers to AWS. Create a project in Migration Hub. Track the progress of server migration by using the built- in dashboard.

A. Use AWS Application Migration Service (CloudEndure Migration) to migrate the Windows servers to AWS. Create a Replication Settings template. Install the AWS Replication Agent on the source servers. This solution will meet the requirements as it allows to replicate servers to AWS with minimal downtime using CloudEndure Migration. It also allows to encrypt data in transit and at rest. Additionally, it allows to monitor the migration process using Amazon CloudWatch and AWS CloudTrail. It allows to create a Replication Setting template, which means that you can set the replication settings for the servers in advance and minimize the cutover window. You can also install the AWS Replication Agent on the source servers, so that the migration process is automatic, minimizing the downtime.

From the FAQ : Q: What are the main differences between AWS Application Migration Service and AWS Server Migration Service? Application Migration Service (MGN) utilizes continuous, block-level replication and enables short cutover windows measured in minutes. Server Migration Service (SMS) utilizes incremental, snapshot-based replication and enables cutover windows measured in hours. Application Migration Service is the primary service recommended to migrate your applications to AWS
