Risk Optimization

An enterprise plans to migrate its IT infrastructure to a cloud-based solution but has no experience with this technology. Which action should be performed FIRST to reduce the risk of IT service disruptions when adopting this new technology?

  • A Evaluate the sourcing options.
  • B Reflect the change in the enterprise architecture (EA).
  • C Implement key performance indicators (KPIs).
  • D Engage an experienced IT consultant to perform the migration.
Explanation

Cloud adoption transfers IT capabilities to an externally sourced service model, so evaluating sourcing options first enables the enterprise to assess provider capabilities, service levels, continuity arrangements, contractual protections, and alignment with business requirements before committing to or migrating to a solution. This early due diligence reduces the likelihood of disruption; enterprise-architecture updates and KPIs are subsequent governance activities, while a consultant is an implementation resource rather than the foundational sourcing decision.
