You plan to move all the virtual machines to Azure.
You need to recommend how many and what size Azure virtual machines will be required to move
the current workloads to Azure. The solution must minimize administrative effort.

B/D? Azure Pricing Calculator (B) helps estimate costs but doesn’t analyze actual workloads or recommend sizes. Azure Advisor (D) mainly gives best practice recommendations after resources are deployed, not for initial sizing. Since the question wants to minimize admin effort and get sizing recommendations, C seems best, but if you don’t have VM usage data yet, then C’s assessment might be limited. Still, among these, only C offers a built-in tool for migration assessment and sizing. So I’d rule out A/B/D pretty quickly.

None but C offers automated right-sizing based on actual workload data.

C, since it provides detailed assessment and sizing recommendations automatically.

It’s C because Azure Migrate actually analyzes your existing VMs and suggests the right Azure VM sizes, which fits the need to minimize admin work way better than the others.

Makes sense to skip A and B since they focus more on cost estimation, not actual sizing. C fits best because it handles discovery and sizing automatically, so I’d go with C too.

Option D doesn’t really fit because Azure Advisor mainly gives best practices and optimization tips after you’ve already migrated. It’s not really meant for initial sizing or planning, which is key here. So I’d rule that out to narrow it down more quickly. That makes C the clear choice since it specifically helps with migration assessments and sizing recommendations based on your existing VMs.
