Same concept, more angles
2 more ways this is tested on PAS-C01
These questions test the same concept from different angles. Work through them to make sure you can recognise it however the exam phrases it.
Variation 1. A company is migrating a SAP BusinessObjects environment to AWS. Which AWS service can be used to automate the deployment of the SAP BusinessObjects components?
easy- A.AWS OpsWorks
- B.AWS Elastic Beanstalk
- C.AWS CodePipeline
- ✓ D.AWS CloudFormation
Why D: AWS CloudFormation allows infrastructure as code to automate the deployment of SAP BusinessObjects. Option A is wrong because AWS OpsWorks is for Chef/Puppet, not directly for SAP. Option B is wrong because AWS Elastic Beanstalk is for web applications, not SAP. Option C is wrong because AWS CodePipeline is for CI/CD, not infrastructure deployment.
