Question

A company is planning to migrate workloads from its on-premises data center to Amazon EC2 instances. The workloads run on physical servers and VMware virtual servers. The company has gathered details about each on-premises server and virtual server, including server specification, CPU utilization, and memory utilization. The company has stored these details in a .csv file named onprem.csv. Before the migration, the company must estimate the cost of running the servers on AWS and must determine recommended EC2 instance types for the servers. The company must export this information to a different .csv file. Which solution will meet these requirements?

Why each option

To estimate AWS costs and get EC2 instance recommendations from existing on-premises server data in a CSV file, and then export this information, the most suitable service is AWS Migration Evaluator. It specializes in analyzing on-premises workload data to provide right-sizing and cost projections for AWS, supporting CSV imports and exports.

AConfigure AWS Compute Optimizer to generate recommendations from an external source.

AWS Compute Optimizer primarily provides recommendations for *existing* AWS resources and is not specifically designed for cost estimation and EC2 right-sizing based on imported raw CSV data of on-premises servers before migration.

BImport the onprem.csv file into AWS Migration Hub by using AWS Migration Hub import. Use EC2

AWS Migration Hub is mainly for tracking migration progress and does not natively provide the cost estimation and EC2 instance type recommendations from imported raw CSV data.

CDeploy AWS Application Discovery Service Agentless Collector on premises. Use Agentless

AWS Application Discovery Service Agentless Collector is used to *collect* data from on-premises environments, but the problem states the data is *already collected* and available in a CSV file, making a collector redundant.

DUpload the onprem.csv file to an Amazon S3 bucket. Configure Migration Evaluator to import theCorrect

AWS Migration Evaluator is purpose-built to analyze existing on-premises server data, including CPU and memory utilization, to provide cost estimates for running workloads on AWS and recommend appropriate EC2 instance types. It supports importing this data via CSV files, typically stored in Amazon S3, and can export the analysis results to a CSV file, directly meeting all stated requirements.
