Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 topic 1 question 20 discussion

A company is planning to store a large number of archived documents and make the documents available to employees through the corporate intranet. Employees will access the system by connecting through a client VPN service that is attached to a VPC. The data must not be accessible to the public.
The documents that the company is storing are copies of data that is held on physical media elsewhere. The number of requests will be low. Availability and speed of retrieval are not concerns of the company.
Which solution will meet these requirements at the LOWEST cost?

  • A. Create an Amazon S3 bucket. Configure the S3 bucket to use the S3 One Zone-Infrequent Access (S3 One Zone-IA) storage class as default. Configure the S3 bucket for website hosting. Create an S3 interface endpoint. Configure the S3 bucket to allow access only through that endpoint.
  • B. Launch an Amazon EC2 instance that runs a web server. Attach an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system to store the archived data in the EFS One Zone-Infrequent Access (EFS One Zone-IA) storage class Configure the instance security groups to allow access only from private networks.
  • C. Launch an Amazon EC2 instance that runs a web server Attach an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume to store the archived data. Use the Cold HDD (sc1) volume type. Configure the instance security groups to allow access only from private networks.
  • D. Create an Amazon S3 bucket. Configure the S3 bucket to use the S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage class as default. Configure the S3 bucket for website hosting. Create an S3 interface endpoint. Configure the S3 bucket to allow access only through that endpoint.

A - Glacier Deep Archive can't be used for web hosting, regardless if the company says retrieval time is no concern.

Nevermind, I go for D. It should be technically possible - and mostly dependent on the intranet web application logic - It could present users with the ability to start file retrieval, for then to later access the data.

A is correct. HA is not required here. D use Glacier deep archive that need hours to access that will cause time out for web

A (S3 One Zone-IA): More expensive than Glacier Deep Archive for long-term archival. B (EFS One Zone-IA) & C (EBS sc1): Higher cost for large archival storage, unnecessary compute.

Selected Answer: D
Although option D mentions configuring the S3 bucket for website hosting, the key part is restricting access via an S3 VPC endpoint, ensuring data is not publicly exposed. The website hosting configuration can be ignored or omitted if only intranet access is required, or simply means enabling bucket policies for the intranet use

There is no practical way to serve a website directly from Glacier Deep Archive storage class objects due to retrieval delays and costs.

Even though Option D includes a technically incompatible feature (website hosting), the rest of the solution matches the requirements best - lowest cost, secure private access, and appropriate storage class.

i liked D but it has "Configure the S3 bucket for website hosting." as part of the answer and that is a deal breaker You can not do it if you configured your Bucket as Glacier deep

A questão não aborda hospedagem. A intranet já existe e fará a consulta no S3. Geralmente armazenamento MENOR custo e que não tenha tempo de recuperação a resposta é o Glacier.

"speed of retrieval does not matter" = s3 glacier deep archive. Although S3 Glacier Deep Archive can't be used for website hosting, you also don't need it because you're accessing the documents via the S3 interface endpoint via the intranet.

Selected Answer: D
Why D is correct: S3 Glacier Deep Archive is the lowest-cost storage class designed for rarely accessed data, which fits the use case perfectly. Access through an S3 interface endpoint ensures that data is not exposed to the public internet, meeting the security requirement. Hosting the files through S3 website hosting (even though retrieval is slow) provides a simple mechanism for access via intranet (assuming internal DNS can resolve the endpoint). There’s no need to run or manage EC2 instances, no web servers, and no block or file storage, reducing both operational overhead and cost.

Why are people bringing in webhosting here, it said it would be accessible over corporate intranet. So their they can implement to raise a request for accessing any archive and once it's ready they can share a link that can be accessed over the intranet. So D is the right answer.

The question does not require website hosting. Its focus is on securely storing documents so employees can access them via VPN without exposing them to the public Internet. So Glacier Deep Archive is more cost-saving

Selected Answer: D
Buckets do not have a storage class... objects do! You can enable web hosting on any bucket and retrieve the objects (when available) over HTTP, whether the objects are available instantly or not that is another question. For glacier, you will have to request a restore and wait but when the object is eventually ready, you can download it directly over HTTP. So, the answer is D.
