Question

A company wants to use Amazon S3 to back up its on-premises file storage solution. The company’s on-premises file storage solution supports NFS, and the company wants its new solution to support NFS. The company wants to archive the backup files after 5 days. If the company needs archived files for disaster recovery, the company is willing to wait a few days for the retrieval of those files. Which solution meets these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: D. The correct answer is D. Option D: Deploy an AWS Storage Gateway file gateway that is associated with an S3 bucket. Move the files from the on-premises file storage solution to the file gateway. Create an S3 Lifecycle rule to move the files to S3 Glaci... S3 Glacier Deep Archive is the lowest-cost storage for long-term archival with retrieval in hours. Amazon S3 Glacier offers low-cost archival storage for infrequently accessed data. S3 Lifecycle policies automatically transition or expire objects to control storage cost. This option delivers the requirement at the lowest cost.
