Practice Test 1 | AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner | CLF-C01 | Dumps | Mock Test
A client has a set of On-Premise applications. He wishes to use his existing SQL Server licenses on AWS cloud provided on a CPU core basis. What pricing model will best suit the client’s requirements?
A. On demand EC2 Dedicated Instances
B. Shared Reserved EC2 Instances
C. On demand EC2 Dedicated Hosts
D. On demand EC2 shared Instance
Answer: C
On reading the question carefully, we can see that the existing SQL server licenses are hardware-driven, which means that the client needs to have dedicated hardware to host his existing SQL Server database.
- Option A is incorrect since dedicated instances can change the underlying host while stopping & starting the database server to invalidate his SQL server license.
- Option B is incorrect since Reserved Instances are normally used for continuous resource usage for a fixed time frame (1 – 3 years).
- Option C is CORRECT. Dedicated hosts will ensure that the underlying host will not change even when the server is stopped & started.
- Option D is incorrect. Using shared EC2 instances, you may create an AMI of an EC2 instance and install a SQL server database. But it may not be suitable for a client using a Bring Your Own License (BYOL) model.
