Topic #: 4

[All Professional Cloud Architect Questions]

For this question, refer to the Dress4Win case study.

Dress4Win has asked you to recommend machine types they should deploy their application servers to. How should you proceed?

APerform a mapping of the on-premises physical hardware cores and RAM to the nearest machine types in the cloud.

BRecommend that Dress4Win deploy application servers to machine types that offer the highest RAM to CPU ratio available.

CRecommend that Dress4Win deploy into production with the smallest instances available, monitor them over time, and scale the machine type up until the desired performance is reached.

DIdentify the number of virtual cores and RAM associated with the application server virtual machines align them to a custom machine type in the cloud, monitor performance, and scale the machine types up until the desired performance is reached.

Hmm, the Dress4Win case study, you say? I bet they could use some 'Dress4Success' machine types. Get it? Dress4Win? Dress4Success? I'll see myself out.

Option A - the ol' 'lift and shift' approach. Can't go wrong with that, right? It's the cloud equivalent of 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'.

Option B is intriguing, but I'm not sure the highest RAM to CPU ratio is always the best choice. Gotta consider the application's specific needs.

Option C is interesting - starting small and then scaling up as needed. I like the idea of monitoring the performance before making changes.

I'm thinking Option D is the way to go. Identifying the specific resource requirements and then scaling up as needed is a more thoughtful approach.

That's a valid point, but I still think starting with the smallest instances and scaling up gradually, as mentioned in option C, could be a more cost-effective strategy.
