Difficulty: EasyMigration Assessment and Strategy

You are planning to migrate several physical on-premises application servers to Azure. To prevent application downtime and network latency issues post-migration, you need to identify which servers have active network connections with each other so that they can be migrated in the same group. Which Azure Migrate feature should you use to map these server relationships?

  1. A
    Azure SQL Database single database deployment
  2. Dependency analysisAnswer
  3. C
    Azure Migrate basic server inventory discovery
  4. D
    Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) configuration

Answer

Dependency analysis
Dependency analysis is designed specifically to visualize and identify network connections between on-premises servers, which allows administrators to group dependent servers and minimize migration risks.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Determine the migration assessment requirement.
The requirement is to identify active network connections between on-premises physical servers to group them properly for migration.
Grouping dependent servers together prevents connection failures and latency issues post-migration.
2
Evaluate Azure Migrate discovery options.
Basic discovery collects metadata like CPU and memory, whereas dependency analysis actively maps network communication between servers.
Only dependency analysis captures the network traffic flows needed to establish server-to-server relationships.

Key Concept

Using Azure Migrate dependency analysis to identify server relationships prior to migration.
