A company has a financial application that produces reports. The reports average 50 KB in size and are stored in Amazon S3. The reports are frequently accessed during the first week after production and must be stored for several years. The reports must be retrievable within 6 hours.

Which solution meets these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

  • A. Use S3 Standard. Use an S3 Lifecycle rule to transition the reports to S3 Glacier after 7 days.
  • B. Use S3 Standard. Use an S3 Lifecycle rule to transition the reports to S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) after 7 days.
  • C. Use S3 Intelligent-Tiering. Configure S3 Intelligent-Tiering to transition the reports to S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) and S3 Glacier.

Selected Answer: C
All the "....after 7 days" options are wrong. Before you transition objects to S3 Standard-IA or S3 One Zone-IA, you must store them for at least 30 days in Amazon S3 https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/lifecycle-transition-general-considerations.html#:~:text=Minimum%20Days%20for%20Transition%20to%20S3%20Standard%2DIA%20or%20S3%20One%20Zone%2DIA

After reading the document from your link, it's clear that NONE of the restrictions apply to S3 standard, but to S3 Standard IA. A is the correct answer.

Selected Answer: A
C is incorrect. Unsupported lifecycle transitions Amazon S3 does not support any of the following lifecycle transitions. You can't transition from the following: Any storage class to the S3 Standard storage class. Any storage class to the Reduced Redundancy Storage (RRS) class. The S3 Intelligent-Tiering storage class to the S3 Standard-IA storage class. The S3 One Zone-IA storage class to the S3 Intelligent-Tiering, S3 Standard-IA, or S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval storage classes. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/lifecycle-transition-general-considerations.html

Selected Answer: A
Any option with S3 Intelligent-Tiering is out, this is only required when the access patterns are unknown. From the question the access patterns are well known, enough to tie the frequently accessed reports to S3 standard and transition them to S3 glacier after 7days.
