Which of the following is an example of a cloud-transformation result described by the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF)?
Show answer and explanation
Answer: C
CAF frames transformation outcomes around realistic value: reduced business risk, increased operational efficiency, revenue growth, and improved environmental and sustainability performance. Gaining efficiency from cloud-enabled capabilities fits squarely among these, because the framework is about measurable improvement, not absolutes.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. Risk is reduced for known concerns, never eliminated — cloud adoption cannot promise zero risk.
- B. No cost guarantee accompanies the cloud; poorly matched or unmanaged workloads can end up more expensive, and CAF claims no blanket cost guarantee.
- D. AWS absorbs infrastructure duties, but the customer's own responsibilities — data security, permissions, and application design — remain theirs under the shared model.
