Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 583 discussion

If you have made it to the end of the exam dump, you will definitely pass your exams in Jesus name. After over a year of Procrastination, I am finally ready to write my AWS Solutions Architect Exam. Thank you Exam Topics

Ready for the exam tomorrow. Wish you guys all the best. BTW Snowball Device comes in handy when you need to move a huge amount of data but cant afford any bandwidth loss

Oh, to think now we have to study 904 questions instead of just 583 lol

5PB over 1GB connection will take approximately 15 months so anything with "transfer" is invalid. ABD are not practical. C: Just order snowball

Though we'll need more than 60 Snowball devices, C is the only option that works. The internet uplink could transport less than 2 PB in 6 months (otherwise, say with a 10 Gb uplink, D would work).

transfer 5 PB data in 1Gbps link, assume 0 overhead and drop packet, need 485 days, 10 hours, 50 minutes, 40 seconds to complete. Snowball it is. C

C https://docs.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/latest/tgw/using-tape-gateway-snowball.html

Migrate petabyte-scale data stored on physical tapes to AWS using AWS Snowball https://aws.amazon.com/snowball/#:~:text=Migrate-,petabyte%2Dscale,-data%20stored%20on

5 PB data is too huge for using 1Gbps uplink. With this uplink, it takes more than 1 year to migrate this data.

Answer: D for most cost effective. If you are looking for a cost-effective, durable, long-term, offsite alternative for data archiving, deploy a Tape Gateway. With its virtual tape library (VTL) interface, you can use your existing tape-based backup software infrastructure to store data on virtual tape cartridges that you create - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/latest/tgw/WhatIsStorageGateway.html

D https://aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/vtl/ the bandwidth and available time is ample

The most cost-effective solution to meet the requirements is to read the data from the tapes on premises. Stage the data in a local NFS storage. Use AWS DataSync to migrate the data to Amazon S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval. This solution is the most cost-effective because it uses the least amount of bandwidth. AWS DataSync is a service that transfers data between on-premises storage and Amazon S3. It uses a variety of techniques to optimize the transfer speed and reduce c

Only thing that makes sense given the 1Gbps limitation

Option C is likely the most cost-effective solution given the large data size and limited internet bandwidth. The physical data transfer and integration with the existing tape infrastructure provides efficiency benefits that can optimize the cost.

Went through this dump twice now. Exam is in about an hour. Will update with results.

Finished the dump today - taking my exam tomorrow :-) Wish me luck!

My rational: question is about which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively, not MOST time or effectively, then, my response is D (using Tape Gateways)
