AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 147

A company wants to modernize and convert a monolithic application into microservices. The company wants to move the application to AWS.

Which migration strategy should the company use?

Answer options

• A. Rehost
• B. Replatform
• C. Repurchase
• D. Refactor

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Refactor, because this strategy involves modifying the existing application to better suit a microservices architecture. The other options, such as Rehost and Replatform, typically involve less significant changes to the application's structure, while Repurchase implies buying a new solution altogether, which does not align with the goal of modernizing the existing application.
