Question #: 55
Topic #: 3

A company is running SAP on anyDB at a remote location that has slow and inconsistent internet connectivity. The company wants to migrate its system to AWS and wants to convert its database to SAP HANA during this process Because of the inconsistent internet connection the company has not established connectivity between the remote location and the company's VPC in the AWS Cloud.

How should the company perform this migration?

AMigrate by using SAP HANA system replication over the internet connection Specify a public IP address on the target system

BMigrate by using SAP Software Update Manager (SUM) Database Migration Option (DMO) with System Move Use an AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized device to transfer the SAP export files to AWS

CMigrate by using SAP HANA system replication with initialization through backup and restore Use an AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized device to transfer the SAP export files to AWS

DMigrate by using SAP Software Update Manager (SUM) Database Migration Option (DMO) with System Move Use Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EPS) to transfer the SAP export files to AWS

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Snowball Edge allows for offline data transfer, which is suitable for cases where there is slow and inconsistent internet connectivity. The data can be transferred to the Snowball Edge device, shipped to the AWS region, and then imported into the new SAP HANA system in the VPC. This is a suitable option for migrating large amounts of data from a remote location to AWS.

I think B is the winner. Who needs the internet when you've got a Snowball Edge, am I right?

I personally think option A is the way to go. Using SAP HANA system replication over the internet connection seems like a reliable method for migration.

I'm not sure about option B. I think option C could also work well with using AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized device for transferring the files.

C looks good to me. Initializing the system through backup and restore seems like a more reliable approach than trying to replicate over the internet.
