Question

A company needs to migrate 60 on-premises legacy applications to AWS. The applications are based on the NET Framework and run on Windows. The company needs a solution that minimizes migration time and requires no application code changes. The company also does not want to manage the infrastructure. Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options

• ARefactor the applications and containerize them by using AWS Toolkit for NET Refactoring. Use
• BUse the Windows Web Application Migration Assistant to migrate the applications to AWS Elastic
• CUse the Windows Web Application Migration Assistant to migrate the applications to Amazon EC2
• DRefactor the applications and containerize them by using AWS Toolkit for NET Refactoring. Use

Explanation

To migrate 60 on-premises .NET Framework applications running on Windows to AWS with minimal migration time, no code changes, and no infrastructure management, AWS Elastic Beanstalk is the most suitable platform. The Windows Web Application Migration Assistant can facilitate packaging these existing applications for deployment to Elastic Beanstalk, which is a fully managed platform as a service.

Common mistakes.

• A. "Refactor the applications" contradicts the requirement for "no application code changes" and would increase migration time.
• C. Migrating applications to Amazon EC2 instances would require the company to manage the underlying Windows Server infrastructure, which contradicts the requirement for "no infrastructure management."
• D. "Refactor the applications" contradicts the requirement for "no application code changes" and would increase migration time.

Concept tested. Lift-and-shift migration, PaaS, .NET application migration.
