Planning and Administering Microsoft Azure for SAP Workloads — Question 13
Your company has an on-premises SAP environment.
Recently, the company split into two companies named Litware, Inc. and Contoso, Ltd. Litware retained the SAP environment.
Litware plans to export data that is relevant only to Contoso. The export will be 1.5 TB.
Contoso builds a new SAP environment on Azure.
You need to recommend a solution for Litware to make the data available to Contoso in Azure. The solution must meet the following requirements:
• Minimize the impact on the network.
• Minimize the administrative effort for Litware.
What should you include in the recommendation?
Answer options
- A. Azure Import/Export service
- B. Azure Migrate
- C. Azure Data Box
- D. Azure Site Recovery
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The Azure Import/Export service is the best option as it allows large amounts of data to be securely transferred to Azure using physical storage devices, thus minimizing network impact and administrative tasks for Litware. Azure Migrate is primarily focused on assessing and migrating workloads rather than direct data transfer, while Azure Data Box, although useful for large data transfers, is not as efficient as Import/Export for this specific use case. Azure Site Recovery is intended for disaster recovery and does not apply to data export in this context.
