A company is planning to migrate its on-premises VMware cluster, consisting of 120 VMs with various operating systems and numerous custom software packages, to AWS. Additionally, the company has a 10 TB on-premises NFS server and has established a 10 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection for the migration. What is the most efficient solution to complete this migration to AWS in the shortest time possible?
Explanation:
The correct answer is B. This solution leverages AWS Application Migration Service to connect to the VMware cluster and create replication jobs for the VMs, ensuring a smooth and automated migration process. Additionally, by configuring AWS DataSync to transfer the 10 TB of data to an Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) file system over the high-speed 10 Gbps Direct Connect connection, it ensures that the migration is completed in the least amount of time. This maximizes the bandwidth and efficiency of the data transfer, minimizing the overall migration time compared to other options.
