A company is presenting the business case for moving to AWS to its board. Which TWO statements about the AWS Cloud are accurate? (Choose two.)

Choose two answers.

  1. A. AWS becomes responsible for securing the company's data and controlling who can access it.
  2. B. Applications can be deployed in Regions around the world within minutes.
  3. C. Customers must sign a contract of at least three years before using AWS.
  4. D. Moving to AWS removes the need for the company to employ any IT staff.
  5. E. Capacity can be increased or reduced within minutes as demand changes.
Show the answer and explanation

Answers: B, E

  • A. Wrong: Under the shared responsibility model the customer remains responsible for its data, identities and access permissions.
  • B. Right: Correct. Going global in minutes is one of the six advantages of cloud computing: you can deploy to multiple Regions with a few clicks.
  • C. Wrong: Most AWS services are pay-as-you-go with no long-term contract. Commitments such as Savings Plans are optional discounts.
  • D. Wrong: Customers still design, configure, secure and operate their workloads. AWS removes data centre work, not all IT work.
  • E. Right: Correct. Because you can scale up or down with only a few minutes' notice, you stop having to guess capacity in advance.

Explanation

Two of the six advantages of cloud computing are going global in minutes and no longer guessing capacity, because resources can be added or removed quickly. Moving to AWS does not hand over responsibility for the customer's data and access control, does not require long-term contracts, and does not remove the need for people to run the workloads.
