Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 822 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03
Question #: 822
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 Questions]

A company recently migrated its application to AWS. The application runs on Amazon EC2 Linux instances in an Auto Scaling group across multiple Availability Zones. The application stores data in an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system that uses EFS Standard-Infrequent Access storage. The application indexes the company's files. The index is stored in an Amazon RDS database.

The company needs to optimize storage costs with some application and services changes.

Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

  • A. Create an Amazon S3 bucket that uses an Intelligent-Tiering lifecycle policy. Copy all files to the S3 bucket. Update the application to use Amazon S3 API to store and retrieve files.
  • B. Deploy Amazon FSx for Windows File Server file shares. Update the application to use CIFS protocol to store and retrieve files.
  • C. Deploy Amazon FSx for OpenZFS file system shares. Update the application to use the new mount point to store and retrieve files.
  • D. Create an Amazon S3 bucket that uses S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval. Copy all files to the S3 bucket. Update the application to use Amazon S3 API to store and retrieve files as standard retrievals.

Since the company is ok with "some application and services changes", then A is definitely the most cost-effective option. D can take up to few hours to complete retrievals.
