Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
Explanation -
Reduced Redundancy Storage (RRS) was introduced in order to reduce storage costs. When first developed, you could use reduced redundancy storage for noncritical, reproducible data at lower levels of redundancy than Amazon S3 provides with standard storage. Now Standard is a more af-fordable from a cost perspective, because Amazon is deprecating RRS and has changed the pricing structure.

Selected Answer: B
Before its planned deprecation, the recommended use case for S3 Reduced Redundancy Storage (RRS) was to reduce storage costs for noncritical data. S3 RRS offered a lower level of redundancy compared to the standard storage class, which made it more cost-effective. It was suitable for data that could be easily reproduced or had other backup mechanisms in place, making it ideal for noncritical or easily replaceable data.
