IBM Cloud Sales Professional Engineer: Common Use Cases Flashcards
Explain Monolithic
defined as an enterprise architecture that includes all the necessary components and applications combined, runs on a single physical server or series of physical servers
Explain application modernization
You identify and implement a sequence for moving enterprise applications to the cloud.
The choice of applications to move to the cloud impacts the resulting improved operation efficiency and cost reductions
