Question 356 - SAP-C02 discussion

Report
Export

A company is planning to migrate its on-premises VMware cluster of 120 VMS to AWS. The VMS have many different operating systems and many custom software packages installed. The company also has an on-premises NFS server that is 10 TB in size. The company has set up a 10 GbpsAWS Direct Connect connection to AWS for the migration

Which solution will complete the migration to AWS in the LEAST amount of time?

A.
Export the on-premises VMS and copy them to an Amazon S3 bucket. Use VM Import/Export to create AMIS from the VM images that are stored in Amazon S3. Order an AWS Snowball Edge device. Copy the NFS server data to the device. Restore the NFS server data to an Amazon EC2 instance that has NFS configured.

D.
Order two AWS Snowball Edge devices. Copy the VMS and the NFS server data to the devices. Run VM Import/Export after the data from the devices is loaded to an Amazon S3 bucket. Create an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system. Copy the NFS server data from Amazon S3 to the EFS file system.

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

This option will complete the migration to AWS in the least amount of time because it uses two AWS services that are designed to simplify and accelerate data transfers and migrations.AWS Application Migration Service (AWS MGN) is a highly automated lift-and-shift solution that helps you migrate applications from any source infrastructure that runs supported operating systems to AWS1.It replicates your source servers into your AWS account and automatically converts and launches them on AWS so you can quickly benefit from the cloud1.You can use AWS MGN to migrate your on-premises VMware VMs to AWS by configuring a connection to your VMware cluster and creating a replication job for the VMs2. This process will minimize the time-intensive, error-prone manual processes of exporting and importing VM images.

AWS DataSync is an online data movement and discovery service that simplifies and accelerates data migrations to AWS and helps you move data quickly and securely between on-premises storage, edge locations, other cloud providers, and AWS Storage3.It can transfer data between Network File System (NFS) shares, Server Message Block (SMB) shares, Hadoop Distributed File Systems (HDFS), self-managed object storage, AWS Snowcone, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets, Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file systems, Amazon FSx for Windows File Server file systems, Amazon FSx for Lustre file systems, Amazon FSx for OpenZFS file systems, and Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file systems3.You can use AWS DataSync to copy your on-premises NFS server data to an Amazon EFS file system over the Direct Connect connection4. This process will leverage the high bandwidth and low latency of Direct Connect and the encryption and data integrity validation of DataSync.
