Question #: 138
Topic #: 1

[All Professional Cloud Architect Questions]

Your company has developed a monolithic, 3-tier application to allow external users to upload and share files. The solution cannot be easily enhanced and lacks reliability. The development team would like to re-architect the application to adopt microservices and a fully managed service approach, but they need to convince their leadership that the effort is worthwhile. Which advantage(s) should they highlight to leadership?

A. The new approach will be significantly less costly, make it easier to manage the underlying infrastructure, and automatically manage the CI/CD pipelines.
B. The monolithic solution can be converted to a container with Docker. The generated container can then be deployed into a Kubernetes cluster.
C. The new approach will make it easier to decouple infrastructure from application, develop and release new features, manage the underlying infrastructure, manage CI/CD pipelines and perform A/B testing, and scale the solution if necessary.
D. The process can be automated with Migrate for Compute Engine.

Here they need to convince why the effort is worthwhile - to prove that you will talk on enhancements hence C. All of these lead to cost reduction/saving eventually.

Agree with you. Isn't A the simplest answer. It says all the same things as C, just without any technicality.

Selected Answer: B

There is very less discussion for this question. .I thing we are forgetting reliablity or HA. I am voting for B

HA is not mentioned in the question, reliability is, but decoupling the architecture improves reliability.

Devs will talk to their managers - so more technically, then the managers will talk to their managers (maybe CxO level) and they will talk 'money'. So I think the correct answer is C but A is still quite possible in very flat organizations. Again the question is asked in some context which is not expressed :(

and CxOs are not interested in 'easier' or 'automatically' which are parts of A answer, the job to make things easier/less cumbersome are on the low level managers or leads of the streams :)

C. "develop and release new features". Work as a dev in any environment. All leadership cares about is "first to market" and differentiators.

I vote A. Management is concerned about costs. A is the only option that touches on costs.

The answer should be between A or C. Choice is to be made between cost effective or Scaling respectively. They have to convince leadership on the effort and not cost so I think we can go for C.
