Deploying SharePoint Server Hybrid (legacy) — Question 30

You have an on-premises file server that contains 30 TB of data.
You purchase a SharePoint Online subscription.
You need to recommend a solution to migrate your content to SharePoint Online. The solution must minimize network traffic.
What should you include in the recommendation?

Answer options

• A. the Microsoft OneDrive sync client
• B. Azure File Sync
• C. the Backup-SPFarm and Restore-SPFarm cmdlets
• D. Azure Data Box

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Azure Data Box is designed for large data transfers, allowing you to physically ship your data to Microsoft, which minimizes network traffic. The other options, such as the OneDrive sync client and Azure File Sync, would require significant bandwidth for transferring large amounts of data over the internet, making them less suitable for this scenario.
