A municipal risk committee wants fewer single-datacenter outage scenarios after the city migrates workloads to AWS. Which CAF benefit theme best describes that outcome?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
One basement datacenter is like keeping all the city’s spare keys on a single hook — lose that hook and everything stalls. Spreading risk with cloud resilience patterns is the CAF “reduced business risk” idea. Migration does not erase every bug, but it can shrink single-facility outage scenarios.
Full Explanation
Reduced business risk through more resilient cloud deployment patterns than a single on-premises facility best describes a municipal risk committee’s desire for fewer single-datacenter outage scenarios after migrating to AWS.
Increased risk by forcing every workload into one physical rack forever worsens the problem. Removal of all backup and recovery responsibilities from the city permanently misstates shared responsibility. Guaranteed immunity from every application bug after cutover is fantasy.
Exam caveat: Reduced business risk is a CAF benefit; architecture still matters and shared responsibility remains. Operational check: migrate a critical workload to multi-AZ patterns, retire the single-datacenter SPOF narrative in the risk register, and evidence a failover test.
Municipal teams should keep a one-page decision record linking this Cloud Practitioner concept to resident outcomes, revisit it after major traffic or compliance changes, and ensure runbooks still match the chosen design.
