AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 — Topic 1 Question 606

Question

A solutions architect is designing an application that will allow business users to upload objects to Amazon S3. The solution needs to maximize object durability. Objects also must be readily available at any time and for any length of time. Users will access objects frequently within the first 30 days after the objects are uploaded, but users are much less likely to access objects that are older than 30 days. Which solution meets these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The correct answer is B. Option B: Store all the objects in S3 Standard with an S3 Lifecycle rule to transition the objects to S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) after 30 days. S3 Standard-IA reduces cost for infrequently accessed data that still needs high availability. S3 Lifecycle policies automatically transition or expire objects to control storage cost. Amazon S3 provides durable, scalable object storage that is fully managed. This option delivers the requirement at the lowest cost.
