Correct answer & explanation
✓
SAP Central Services (ASCS/SCS).
When migrating an SAP workload to AWS, the key components that are typically migrated include SAP Central Services (ASCS/SCS) and the SAP HANA database. These are core parts of the SAP system. Option A is incorrect because AWS KMS encryption keys are infrastructure security components, not part of the workload itself. Option C is incorrect because AWS Direct Connect is a network connectivity service, not migrated. Option D is incorrect because IAM roles and policies are AWS access control mechanisms, not workload components.
