CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-004) — Question 13

Which of the following strategies requires the development of new code before an application can be successfully migrated to a cloud provider?

Answer options

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

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Refactoring involves modifying existing code to improve its structure and performance, which is essential for adapting the application to a cloud environment. In contrast, rearchitecting may require design changes but not necessarily new code, while rehosting and replatforming focus on moving the application with minimal changes, so they do not require code development.
