Explanation

AIX (IBM's UNIX operating system) is not available on any AWS EC2 instance type, so a homogeneous migration (same OS, same DB) is impossible. A heterogeneous migration is required to move to a supported OS (Linux or Windows). The goal of 'minimal changes' means retaining Oracle Database rather than converting to another database. Answer C represents a heterogeneous migration (OS change from AIX to Linux) while keeping the Oracle Database engine, which satisfies both the AWS compatibility requirement and the minimal-change constraint. Options A and D describe heterogeneous migrations but with different database or application server configurations that do not best align with retaining Oracle. Option B (homogeneous) is not feasible because AIX is unsupported on AWS.
