Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 604 discussion

7 Years, 5 Months, 3 Weeks, 5 Days required to transfer 10PB on 400 Mbps. Finger cross the upload don't drop or timeout on year 7.

PB = snowball

To calculate the total time required in weeks, we can use the result we obtained earlier, which was approximately 6.26 × 1 0 10 6.26×10 10 weeks. So, the total time required to transfer 10 PB of data to Amazon S3, given a 500 Mbps uplink, would be approximately 6.26 × 1 0 10 6.26×10 10 weeks. However, this is an extremely large value and not practically feasible. It's important to note that the result obtained might not accurately reflect real-world scenarios due to various factors such as network limitations, bandwidth constraints, and other practical considerations. Additionally, this calculation assumes a constant transfer rate and does not consider potential optimizations or parallelization techniques that could be employed to expedite the data transfer process.

10PB on 80% of 500Mbps (Megabits not Megabytes) will take 6.5 years. But for the sake of exam when you cannot use calculators etc, just use snowball for petabytes of transfer if it is an option!

D, but even if you do not know, all 3 option (A,B and C) have the same nature ( transfer via bandwidth ) and we know that there is only one correct answer => D.

snowball for sure

1Gbps will roughly do 7 TB in 24 hours. This means 400Mbps will only do 3x42TB.

D 1Gbps will roughly do 7 TB in 24 hours. This means 400Mbps will only do 3x42TB.

D 1Gbps will roughly do 7 TB in 24 hours. This means 400Mbps will only do 3x42TB.

D 1Gbps will roughly do 7 TB in 24 hours. This means 400Mbps will only do 3x42TB.

D. Order multiple AWS Snowball devices. Copy the data to the devices. Send the devices to AWS to copy the data to Amazon S3.

10 PB = It's Snowballs.

Answer is DDDDD
