Zorluk: KolayUnderstand concepts of cloud economics

An online tutoring company is migrating its student portal to AWS to reduce overall infrastructure costs. Which TWO of the following statements correctly describe the economic benefits of this migration?

  1. Replacing upfront capital expenses with variable operating expenses that scale with usageCevap
  2. Paying only for the resources that are actually consumed, reducing waste from idle capacityCevap
  3. C
    Increasing upfront capital expenses to completely eliminate variable operating expenses
  4. D
    Committing to fixed, long-term contracts for all cloud services to ensure predictability in billing
  5. E
    Overprovisioning resources permanently to ensure the system can handle future growth without scaling

Cevap

The correct options are the statements explaining that migrating to AWS replaces upfront capital expenses with variable operating expenses, and that you pay only for the resources that are actually consumed, which reduces waste from idle capacity.
Migrating to AWS provides significant economic benefits by replacing upfront capital expenses (such as purchasing physical hardware) with variable operating expenses that are paid based on usage. Furthermore, AWS enables a pay-as-you-go model where organizations pay only for the resources they consume, eliminating the waste associated with paying for idle, overprovisioned capacity.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Understand the shift in expense models during a cloud migration.
Identify that migrating to AWS shifts costs from CapEx (upfront capital expenses) to OpEx (variable operating expenses).
This is a fundamental concept of cloud economics where you pay as you go instead of investing in physical data centers upfront.
2
Understand how AWS pricing models handle resource utilization.
Identify that pay-as-you-go pricing and elasticity prevent paying for idle, overprovisioned resources.
Elasticity allows resources to grow and shrink with demand, ensuring you only pay for what you actually use.

Anahtar Kavram

AWS cloud economics allows organizations to replace upfront capital expenses (CapEx) with variable operating expenses (OpEx) and reduce waste by paying only for active resource consumption rather than idle capacity.
