Question 639 - CLF-C02 discussion

When a company moves from on-premises IT architecture to the AWS Cloud, it gains several benefits:

A . Reduced or eliminated tasks for hardware troubleshooting, capacity planning, and procurement: In an on-premises environment, companies must maintain their own hardware, which involves procuring servers, configuring them, managing capacity, and troubleshooting hardware failures. Moving to the AWS Cloud eliminates or greatly reduces these tasks since AWS is responsible for the underlying infrastructure.

E . Faster deployment of new features and applications: AWS provides scalable resources and automation tools that allow companies to deploy applications faster. Services like AWS Elastic Beanstalk, AWS CloudFormation, and AWS Lambda help streamline the deployment process, enabling quicker time-to-market for new features and applications.

Why other options are not suitable:

B Elimination of the need for trained IT staff: While the cloud reduces certain operational burdens, it does not eliminate the need for skilled IT professionals to manage cloud services, ensure proper configurations, handle security, and manage applications.

C . Automatic security configuration of all applications that are migrated to the cloud: AWS provides security tools and services, but security configurations and management still require input from the customer to tailor them to specific application requirements.

D . Elimination of the need for disaster recovery planning: While AWS offers robust disaster recovery options, companies must still plan and implement disaster recovery strategies, such as backups and multi-region deployments.
