AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 121

A retail company is migrating its IT infrastructure applications from on premises to the AWS Cloud.
Which costs will the company eliminate with this migration? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Cost of data center operations
• B. Cost of application licensing
• C. Cost of marketing campaigns
• D. Cost of physical server hardware
• E. Cost of network management

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

The correct answers, A and D, represent costs directly associated with maintaining physical infrastructure, which will no longer be necessary after migrating to the cloud. Options B, C, and E do not relate to physical infrastructure expenses; application licensing may still be needed, marketing campaigns are unrelated, and network management costs can still exist in a cloud environment.
