Which of the following is a direct effect of cloud migration on an enterprise?

The correct answer is D. Utility costs will be reduced on premises.. When workloads move to the cloud, on-premises servers and data center infrastructure are decommissioned or scaled down.

Explanation

When workloads move to the cloud, on-premises servers and data center infrastructure are decommissioned or scaled down. This directly reduces electricity consumption for compute and cooling, lowering utility costs at the physical data center. This is a predictable, direct consequence of cloud migration. Option A is incorrect because cloud migration does not mandate organizational restructuring. Option B is incorrect because compatibility issues are addressed before or during migration, not afterward on premises. Option C is misleading - cloud solutions shift resource costs but do not inherently require fewer total resources; they often change the cost model rather than eliminating resource needs.
