Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 topic 1 question 401 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02
Question #: 401
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 Questions]

A company wants to design a disaster recovery (DR) solution for an application that runs in the company’s data center. The application writes to an SMB file share and creates a copy on a second file share. Both file shares are in the data center. The application uses two types of files: metadata files and image files.

The company wants to store the copy on AWS. The company needs the ability to use SMB to access the data from either the data center or AWS if a disaster occurs. The copy of the data is rarely accessed but must be available within 5 minutes.

  • A. Deploy AWS Outposts with Amazon S3 storage. Configure a Windows Amazon EC2 instance on Outposts as a file server.
  • B. Deploy an Amazon FSx File Gateway. Configure an Amazon FSx for Windows File Server Multi-AZ file system that uses SSD storage.
  • C. Deploy an Amazon S3 File Gateway. Configure the S3 File Gateway to use Amazon S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) for the metadata files and to use S3 Glacier Deep Archive for the image files.
  • D. Deploy an Amazon S3 File Gateway. Configure the S3 File Gateway to use Amazon S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) for the metadata files and image files.

Selected Answer: D
Answer is D = S3 File Gateway. For those that have chosen B, they are right of course as FSx File Gateway will work as well. But if you read the requirements (The company wants to store the copy on AWS. The company needs the ability to use SMB to access the data from either the data center or AWS if a disaster occurs. The copy of the data is rarely accessed but must be available within 5 minutes.) it is only about storing the data with rare access. So why would you choose option B that has a Multi-AZ + SSD over a cheaper option for DR?

and of course C would be wrong because for glacier, it would take more than 5 minutes to get the files out

Vote for D: 1. Amazon S3 File Gateway is suitable for SMB file share https://docs.aws.amazon.com/filegateway/latest/files3/CreatingAnSMBFileShare.html 2. S3 One Zone-IA is for data that is accessed less frequently, but requires rapid access when needed. https://aws.amazon.com/s3/storage-classes/

Option D is correct because it: Deploys an Amazon S3 File Gateway, which enables SMB access to stored objects in Amazon S3. Configures the S3 File Gateway to use: Amazon S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) for both metadata and image files, providing fast access and reducing storage costs.

Selected Answer: D
Amazon S3 File Gateway provides a seamless way to connect to the cloud to store application data files and backup images as durable objects in Amazon S3 cloud storage. Amazon S3 File Gateway offers SMB or NFS-based access to data in Amazon S3 with local caching. It can be used for on-premises data-intensive Amazon EC2-based applications that need file protocol access to S3 object storage. https://aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/file/s3/

https://www.amazonaws.cn/en/storagegateway/faqs/ With S3 File Gateway, your configured S3 buckets will be available as Network File System (NFS) mount points or Server Message Block (SMB) file shares. Your applications read and write files and directories over NFS or SMB, interfacing to the gateway as a file server. In turn, the gateway translates these file operations into object requests on your S3 buckets.

While S3 File Gateway options (C and D) are cost-effective for long-term storage, they introduce retrieval delays that don't meet the 5-minute availability requirement.

Answer is B. Although S3 filegateway supports both NFS and SMB, D cannot be the right answer since question does not mention it to be cost efficient.

Selected Answer: D
Amazon S3 File Gateway supports SMB and can be used to store and retrieve files in Amazon S3 using file-based interfaces. Using S3 Standard-Infrequent Access for both metadata and image files ensures that the data is available within the required 5 minutes while optimizing costs for infrequently accessed data.

D is incorrect because deploying an Amazon S3 File Gateway and configuring the S3 File Gateway to use Amazon S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) for the metadata files and image files does not provide the ability to use SMB to access the data from either the data center or AWS if a disaster occurs.
