A bank's cloud steering committee wants three things from its migration.
Expected savings must be tracked against a target each quarter, cloud spending must be budgeted and reported by team, and risks, including those that could interrupt business services, must have named owners.
Which AWS Cloud Adoption Framework (AWS CAF) perspective focuses on these capabilities?
Choose one answer.
AA. Platform, covering the design and build of the cloud environment and its workloads
BB. Governance, covering business benefits, cloud spending and risk management
CC. Operations, covering how cloud services are run and monitored day to day
DD. People, covering skills, roles and organizational change for the cloud
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: B
A. Wrong: Platform covers building and modernizing the cloud environment and its workloads, such as landing zones and hybrid setups. It does not set benefit targets, cloud budgets or risk ownership, which the committee needs.
C. Wrong: Operations covers running cloud services day to day, including monitoring, incident response and service levels. It does not track migration savings or assign ownership of business benefits.
D. Wrong: People covers skills, roles and organizational change. Training staff matters for a migration, but the perspective does not describe tracking savings, budgets or risk ownership.
Explanation
The Governance perspective helps organizations orchestrate cloud initiatives, get the intended business benefits, manage spending and limit transformation risk. Platform, Operations and People each address other parts of the transformation.
