An educational technology (EdTech) company is expanding its online learning platform to serve school districts across Europe, Asia, and South America. Instead of renting space in physical colocation facilities and purchasing server racks in each region, the company deploys its web servers and databases using AWS infrastructure. This deployment enables the company to provide low-latency access to students globally within hours, while eliminating overhead costs such as facility power, cooling, and hardware maintenance.
Which of the following benefits of the AWS Cloud are directly demonstrated by this migration? (Select TWO.)
- Go global in minutesAnswer
- Stop spending money running and maintaining data centersAnswer
- CTrade variable expenses for capital expenses to ensure predictable IT spending
- DDeploy monolithic, tightly coupled systems to simplify application management
- ERely on manual provisioning to achieve elasticity for predictable workloads
Answer
The correct benefits demonstrated are 'Go global in minutes' and 'Stop spending money running and maintaining data centers'.
The scenario highlights two distinct benefits of migrating to AWS. First, deploying web servers and databases to serve school districts across Europe, Asia, and South America to achieve low-latency access within hours demonstrates the benefit of 'Go global in minutes'. Second, eliminating overhead costs such as facility power, cooling, and hardware maintenance demonstrates the benefit of 'Stop spending money running and maintaining data centers' because AWS manages the underlying physical infrastructure.
