A software development company is preparing to launch a new application. Instead of purchasing and setting up physical servers in a local facility, the company decides to deploy the application on AWS and pay for resources on a monthly basis based on active consumption. Which of the following best describes this financial change?
- AA shift from Operating Expenses (OpEx) to Capital Expenses (CapEx)
- BA shift from Variable Costs to Fixed Costs
- A shift from Capital Expenses (CapEx) to Operating Expenses (OpEx)Cevap
- DA shift from Loose Coupling to Monolithic Design
Cevap
A shift from Capital Expenses (CapEx) to Operating Expenses (OpEx)
The correct answer is the shift from Capital Expenses (CapEx) to Operating Expenses (OpEx). Physical server purchases require upfront financial investment in long-term assets (CapEx). In contrast, AWS operates on a consumption-based pricing model where costs are treated as day-to-day operating expenses (OpEx).
