What is the primary purpose of handling SLAs during application decommissioning?

To create a new SLA for the decommissioned application.

To formally terminate or transition service commitments in accordance with the agreement.

To ignore the SLA and focus only on technical decommissioning.

To extend the SLA for a final period to ensure all users are satisfied.

Which of the following is a key step in managing SLA termination during decommissioning?

Transferring the SLA to another application without notifying the provider.

Deleting all records of the SLA to avoid termination fees.

Notifying the service provider in writing of the intent to terminate the SLA.

Continuing to pay for the service until the provider decides to stop it.

A transportation agency is decommissioning a legacy fare-collection application. The application authenticates via a shared service account that is also used by the real-time arrival system. The fare-collection application sends data to a third-party analytics platform under an SLA that requires 45 days' notice for feed termination. The decommissioning must be completed in 30 days. What is the MOST critical dependency to resolve first?

The fare-collection application's data must be archived before the analytics feed is terminated.

The shared service account must be replaced with a dedicated account for the real-time arrival system.

The real-time arrival system may fail if the shared service account is disabled before the fare-collection app is decommissioned.

The third-party analytics platform's SLA requires 45 days' notice, which exceeds the 30-day decommissioning window.

What is the primary goal of credential removal during application decommissioning?

To document all credentials in the decommissioning report.

To archive all credentials in a secure vault for future reference.

To transfer all credentials to the new system administrator.

To ensure that no active credentials or access rights remain that could be used to access the decommissioned system or its data.

Which activity is typically governed by an End of Life (EOL) policy for an application?

Deciding when and how to retire the application after it reaches the end of its useful life.

Monitoring application performance during peak usage.

Performing daily backups of the application's database.

Developing new features for the application's next release.
