Question #846

Which perspective in the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework (AWS CAF) encompasses capabilities related to incident management and disaster recovery planning?

A

Platform

B

Operations

C

Security

D

Governance

Explanation

The correct answer is B. Operations. The AWS Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) Operations perspective includes capabilities related to day-to-day IT management, such as incident management (resolving disruptions) and disaster recovery planning (ensuring business continuity during major outages).

- Why Operations? The Operations perspective emphasizes running workloads reliably, monitoring systems, and maintaining operational readiness. Incident management and disaster recovery are core operational processes.
- Other Options:
- A. Platform: Focuses on cloud infrastructure (e.g., compute, storage, networking), not operational processes.
- C. Security: Deals with data protection, access control, and compliance, not operational recovery.
- D. Governance: Manages risk and compliance policies, not day-to-day incident handling.

Key Points: Operations in AWS CAF ensures systems are monitored, maintained, and recovered during disruptions. Disaster recovery planning is a critical operational capability.

Answer

The correct answer is: B
