Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
SAP Landscape Transformation (SLT)
(SAP Landscape Transformation) is correct because SLT can replicate data in real-time from an on-premises SAP system to SAP HANA on AWS, enabling minimal downtime migration. Option E (SAP HANA System Replication) is correct because HSR provides native, continuous database replication with automatic failover, allowing migration with minimal downtime. Options B (AWS Backup), C (AWS DMS), and D (CloudEndure) are incorrect: AWS Backup is for backup/restore, not continuous replication; DMS does not support SAP HANA as a source; CloudEndure is not recommended for SAP HANA workloads.
