A company wants external partners to use SAP GUI without installing and maintaining the client on every partner workstation. Which AWS service fits?
Show answer and explanation
Answer: D
AppStream 2.0 streams a Windows desktop or a single application from AWS to a browser, so SAP GUI runs in the managed environment and only pixels and input travel to the user. Patches, SAP GUI versions, and access policies are centralized, which suits contractors and partners on managed or unmanaged devices. Direct Connect is a network link, Lambda runs code, and CloudWatch monitors metrics; none delivers a GUI session.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. Direct Connect provides private network connectivity but does not stream or host the SAP GUI application.
- B. Lambda is an event-driven compute service and cannot deliver an interactive desktop session.
- C. CloudWatch collects metrics and logs and has no application streaming capability.
Exam tip. SAP GUI without local installs means application streaming with AppStream 2.0.
