Option A, DB Migration utility, is not the recommended service for migrating Hyper-V machines and VMware virtual machines to AWS. The DB Migration utility is primarily used for migrating database workloads to AWS.
Option C, Use AWS Migration Tools, is too broad and not specific enough. AWS Migration Tools is a suite of services and tools that are designed to help you migrate your data, applications, and other resources to AWS. While AWS Server Migration Service is included in AWS Migration Tools, it is the recommended service for migrating Hyper-V machines and VMware virtual machines.
Option D, Use AWS Config Tools, is also not the recommended service for migrating Hyper-V machines and VMware virtual machines to AWS. AWS Config Tools is a service that allows you to monitor and track changes to your AWS resources, ensuring that your configurations comply with your policies and standards. It is not used for migrating workloads to AWS.
