[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 Questions]

A company runs a website that stores images of historical events. Website users need the ability to search and view images based on the year that the event in the image occurred. On average, users request each image only once or twice a year. The company wants a highly available solution to store and deliver the images to users.

Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

  • A. Store images in Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS). Use a web server that runs on Amazon EC2.
  • B. Store images in Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS). Use a web server that runs on Amazon EC2.
  • C. Store images in Amazon S3 Standard. Use S3 Standard to directly deliver images by using a static website.
  • D. Store images in Amazon S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA). Use S3 Standard-IA to directly deliver images by using a static website.

"On average, users request each image only once or twice a year." S3 Infrequent Access is more than enough for this.

Say, you have 1 TB of files that you access twice a year. Yearly cost: C, S3 Standard: 276 USD for storage, free retrieval = 276 USD D, S3 Standard-IA: 138 USD for storage, 20 € for retrieval = 158 USD

Option D: Store images in Amazon S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA). Use S3 Standard-IA to directly deliver images by using a static website. S3 Standard-IA is designed specifically for infrequently accessed data, offering lower storage costs compared to S3 Standard while still providing the necessary durability and availability.

Selected Answer: C
Suppose there are thousands or millions of users, each image should be recovered once or twice a year X total users... makes it more expensive than the standard class since the recovery price of Standard-IA is $0.01 per GB + price of the requests which is also more expensive too.

Not sure if you understood what IA class does. "Recovery price is 0.001 per GB", what's the issue with that if images are requested "only once or twice a year"? Say, you have 1 TB of files that you access twice a year. S3 Standard: 276 USD for storage, free retrieval = 276 USD S3 Standard-IA: 138 USD for storage, 20 € for retrieval = 158 USD

I believe the correct answer is option D, but ChatGPT mentioned option C. I didn't understand. I'm curious about the actual correct answer.

Might be the fact the a user is requesting to view a image once or twice a year but how many users are there ? :) that's why it points to C i think. I still think that the correct answer is D due to lack of information in the description

"Users request each image only once or twice per year", this refers to all users together, it does not say "EACH user". In other words, every image is accessed once or twice a year.
