An organization wants to migrate legacy applications currently hosted (Digital Leader)
An organization wants to migrate legacy applications currently hosted in their data center to the cloud.
The current architecture dictates that each application needs its own operating system (OS) instead of sharing an OS.
Which infrastructure solution should they choose?
A) Virtual machines
B) Open source
C) Serverless computing
D) Containers
Solution
Correct answer: A) Virtual machines.
Virtual machines (VMs) would be the most suitable infrastructure solution for migrating legacy applications that require each application to have its own operating system. VMs provide a way to run multiple independent operating systems on a single physical server, allowing each application to have its own isolated environment with its own OS.
This approach maintains the existing architecture where each application has its own OS while still leveraging the benefits of cloud infrastructure.
Therefore, option A is the best choice for this scenario.
