PAS-C01 Technology Practice Question
Which THREE of the following are valid methods to automate the installation of SAP HANA on AWS? (Choose three.)
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse AWS Systems Manager Automation (Option A) with a general-purpose automation tool, but it lacks the SAP-specific logic and lifecycle management required for HANA installation, making AWS Launch Wizard for SAP and SAP Cloud Appliance Library the correct SAP-focused automation methods.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
AWS Launch Wizard for SAP
AWS Launch Wizard for SAP (Option B) is a valid method to automate SAP HANA installation because it provides a guided, automated deployment experience that collects input for infrastructure sizing, configuration, and software installation, then orchestrates the provisioning of AWS resources and the SAP HANA software setup. It reduces manual effort by automating the deployment of SAP HANA on AWS, making it a correct choice for this question.
