Zorluk: OrtaConsumption-Based Model (CapEx vs OpEx)

A company plans to migrate its e-commerce platform from an on-premises data center to Azure. The website experiences highly variable traffic, with major spikes during seasonal sales events and minimal traffic otherwise. By moving to Azure's consumption-based model, which of the following describes the financial impact on the company?

  1. The company transitions from Capital Expenditure (CapEx) to Operational Expenditure (OpEx), paying only for the computing resources they actively consume.Cevap
  2. B
    The company transitions from Operational Expenditure (OpEx) to Capital Expenditure (CapEx), allowing them to deduct the full cost of cloud resources as an upfront physical asset.
  3. C
    The company continues to incur Capital Expenditure (CapEx) because they must pre-allocate and pay for peak capacity upfront to ensure website availability.
  4. D
    The company's financial model remains unchanged because Azure virtual machines are classified as physical capital assets with fixed monthly depreciation.

Cevap

The company transitions from Capital Expenditure (CapEx) to Operational Expenditure (OpEx), paying only for the computing resources they actively consume.
Migrating to a consumption-based model in Azure allows the company to eliminate upfront infrastructure costs (CapEx) and instead pay for cloud resources as they are consumed (OpEx). This aligns their operational costs directly with the demand spikes and valleys of their e-commerce website.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the financial characteristics of the current on-premises data center model.
On-premises infrastructure requires buying physical hardware upfront, which is classified as Capital Expenditure (CapEx).
To establish the baseline financial model before migration.
2
Analyze the financial characteristics of the Azure consumption-based model.
Azure resources do not require upfront hardware purchases. Instead, they are billed based on actual usage, which is classified as Operational Expenditure (OpEx).
To identify the target financial model after migration.
3
Compare the on-premises model with the Azure consumption-based model under a variable workload.
The company shifts spending from upfront hardware (CapEx) to a pay-as-you-go model (OpEx), aligning costs directly with traffic peaks and valleys.
To determine the correct financial impact described in the choices.

Anahtar Kavram

Under a consumption-based model, organizations do not pay upfront costs for physical infrastructure. Instead, they classify cloud spending as Operational Expenditure (OpEx), aligning costs directly with resource consumption.
