https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2020/07/aws-snowball-edge-compute-optimized-now-available-additional-aws-regions/: "Snowball Edge Compute Optimized is a secure, rugged device that brings AWS computing and storage capabilities, such as Amazon EC2, Amazon EBS, Amazon S3, AWS IoT Greengrass, AWS Lambda functions, and AWS IAM to your edge environments for machine learning, data analytics, processing, and local storage." Answer is D

D. AWS Snowball Edge Compute Optimize

easiest question of this dump

D. AWS Snowball Edge Compute Optimize

complicated transformations->use Edge Snowball Edge Storage Optimised can store upto 80 TB data for moving to S3 Snowball Edge Compute Optimised can store 4o TB so both support 'many gigabytes' (not going to 10s of TBs) 'complicated transformations' implies Compute Optimized Answer is D

Snowball Edge Storage Optimized • 80 TB of HDD capacity for block volume and S3 compatible object storage • Snowball Edge Compute Optimized • 42 TB of HDD capacity for block volume and S3 compatible object storage • Use cases:

The answer is A. In the question ,it is at a ship which has connectivity limitations and also snowball transports multiple terabytes of data .

I am leaning towards D What is the difference between the Snowball Edge Storage Optimized and Snowball Edge Compute Optimized options? Snowball Edge Storage Optimized is the optimal choice if you need to securely and quickly transfer dozens of terabytes to petabytes of data to AWS. It is also a good fit for running general purpose analysis such as IoT data aggregation and transformation. It provides up to 80 TB of usable HDD storage, 40 vCPUs, 1 TB of SATA SSD storage, and up to 40 Gb network connectivity to address large scale data transfer and pre-processing use cases. We recommend using Snowball Edge Compute Optimized for use cases that require access to powerful compute and high-speed storage for data processing before transferring it into AWS. It features 52 vCPUs, 7.68 TB of NVMe SSD, and up to 100 Gb networking to run applications such as high-resolution video processing, advanced IoT data analytics, and real-time optimization of machine learning models in environments with limited connectivity.

paraphrase "run complex transformation before transferring the data" --> Compute Optimize --> Answer. D

Definitely D
