A company plans to migrate many on-premises applications (Linux and Windows) to AWS. They have physical machines and VMs and need to capture system configuration, performance metrics, running processes, and network connections; group on-premises applications into migration sets; and receive recommended EC2 instance types and costs for running workloads on AWS. Which combination of steps should the solutions architect take? (Choose three.)

Correct answer: Assess the existing applications by installing the AWS Application Discovery Agent on the physical machines and VMs., Group servers into applications for migration by using AWS Migration Hub., Generate recommended instance types and associated costs by using AWS Migration Hub..
Why this is the answer
The AWS Application Discovery Agent is designed to collect system configuration, performance metrics, running processes, and network connections from on-premises servers, which directly addresses the company's need for comprehensive data capture. AWS Migration Hub is the central service for planning and tracking migrations, allowing you to group servers into applications and generate recommended EC2 instance types and associated costs based on the collected data. AWS Systems Manager Agent is primarily for operational management of instances, not for initial discovery and migration planning. AWS Systems Manager Application Manager is for managing applications after they are on AWS, not for grouping on-premises applications for migration. AWS Trusted Advisor provides cost optimization recommendations but doesn't directly import server size data for migration planning or generate instance type recommendations based on discovery data.
