[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 Questions]

A company needs to gather data from an experiment in a remote location that does not have internet connectivity. During the experiment, sensors that are connected to a local network will generate 6 TB of data in a proprietary format over the course of 1 week. The sensors can be configured to upload their data files to an FTP server periodically, but the sensors do not have their own FTP server. The sensors also do not support other protocols. The company needs to collect the data centrally and move the data to object storage in the AWS Cloud as soon as possible after the experiment.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

A. Order an AWS Snowball Edge Compute Optimized device. Connect the device to the local network. Configure AWS DataSync with a target bucket name, and unload the data over NFS to the device. After the experiment, return the device to AWS so that the data can be loaded into Amazon S3.
B. Order an AWS Snowcone device, including an Amazon Linux 2 AMI. Connect the device to the local network. Launch an Amazon EC2 instance on the device. Create a shell script that periodically downloads data from each sensor. After the experiment, return the device to AWS so that the data can be loaded as an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume.
C. Order an AWS Snowcone device, including an Amazon Linux 2 AMI. Connect the device to the local network. Launch an Amazon EC2 instance on the device. Install and configure an FTP server on the EC2 instance. Configure the sensors to upload data to the EC2 instance. After the experiment, return the device to AWS so that the data can be loaded into Amazon S3.
D. Order an AWS Snowcone device. Connect the device to the local network. Configure the device to use Amazon FSx. Configure the sensors to upload data to the device. Configure AWS DataSync on the device to synchronize the uploaded data with an Amazon S3 bucket. Return the device to AWS so that the data can be loaded as an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume.

D sounds good to me.Option D proposes using an AWS Snowcone device: Configuring it to use Amazon FSx. Configuring the sensors to upload data to the device. Setting up AWS DataSync on the device to synchronize the uploaded data with an Amazon S3 bucket. This approach allows for seamless data collection, synchronization, and loading into Amazon S3 without requiring additional configuration or latency introduced by EC2 instances or shell scripts. Therefore, Option D is the most suitable choice given the requirements.

Selected Answer: C

Since the sensors only support FTP for data upload, installing and configuring an FTP server on the EC2 instance is essential. This setup allows the sensors to periodically upload their data files to the Snowcone device.

Selected Answer: C

Sensors only support FTP protocol. Leverage the native capabilities of Snowcone and EC2, providing an efficient method for collecting data.
