Select 2You have been tasked with migrating 50 on-premises servers hosting multiple Java-based applications to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The organization emphasizes a thorough discovery and inventory process, followed by a well-structured planning and assessment phase to minimize risk. Which two actions should you take first to design a successful migration plan?
- A
Automate the discovery of existing infrastructure and application dependencies using a suitable tool.
- B
Skip evaluating current license usage and decide on licenses after the migration is complete.
- C
Document critical inter-application communication flows and resource utilization patterns.
- D
Deploy all applications to a test environment in OCI before performing any discovery tasks.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C
Explanation
Discovery and inventory are foundational steps in any successful OCI migration project. Automating the discovery process and documenting dependencies ensures an accurate understanding of the current environment. This inventory feeds into detailed planning, which includes license assessment and resource sizing. For more guidance, refer to Oracle's migration best practices in the official OCI documentation.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Using an automated discovery tool helps you identify the existing application footprint, server configurations, and dependent services. This insight is crucial for accurate inventory creation and planning.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Ignoring license usage upfront can cause unexpected costs and compliance issues later. It is important to assess licenses as part of the initial planning.
- C. Correct.
Correct. Understanding inter-application flows and metrics, such as CPU, memory, and network utilization, is essential for designing an effective migration plan and ensuring that performance requirements will be met.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Deploying applications in OCI without first performing proper discovery and inventory can lead to misconfigurations, overlooked dependencies, and ultimately migration failures.
