CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 46
Company A just acquired Company B and needs to migrate critical applications to Company A's private cloud infrastructure. Company B's applications are running on legacy servers and cannot be removed from the current datacenter where they reside. Which of the following migration strategies should the cloud administrator use?
Answer options
- A. V2V
- B. P2V
- C. V2P
- D. P2P
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C (V2P), which stands for Virtual to Physical migration, appropriate for moving applications from virtualized environments to physical servers, especially when dealing with legacy systems. Options A (V2V) and B (P2V) involve virtual-to-virtual and physical-to-virtual migrations, respectively, which are not suitable since the legacy applications cannot be removed from their current location. Option D (P2P) is not applicable in this context as it refers to peer-to-peer connections.
