Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 topic 1 question 425 discussion

A company is planning to migrate an application from on premises to the AWS Cloud. The company will begin the migration by moving the application’s underlying data storage to AWS. The application data is stored on a shared file system on premises, and the application servers connect to the shared file system through SMB.

A solutions architect must implement a solution that uses an Amazon S3 bucket for shared storage. Until the application is fully migrated and code is rewritten to use native Amazon S3 APIs, the application must continue to have access to the data through SMB. The solutions architect must migrate the application data to AWS to its new location while still allowing the on-premises application to access the data.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • A. Create a new Amazon FSx for Windows File Server file system. Configure AWS DataSync with one location for the on-premises file share and one location for the new Amazon FSx file system. Create a new DataSync task to copy the data from the on-premises file share location to the Amazon FSx file system.
  • B. Create an S3 bucket for the application. Copy the data from the on-premises storage to the S3 bucket.
  • C. Deploy an AWS Server Migration Service (AWS SMS) VM to the on-premises environment. Use AWS SMS to migrate the file storage server from on premises to an Amazon EC2 instance.
  • D. Create an S3 bucket for the application. Deploy a new AWS Storage Gateway file gateway on an on-premises VM. Create a new file share that stores data in the S3 bucket and is associated with the file gateway. Copy the data from the on-premises storage to the new file gateway endpoint.

Option D meets all the requirements: • Create an S3 bucket for the application: This provides a shared storage location for the application's data. • Deploy a new AWS Storage Gateway file gateway on an on-premises VM: The file gateway is used to enable SMB access to the S3 bucket, allowing the on-premises application to continue accessing the data through SMB. • Create a new file share that stores data in the S3 bucket and is associated with the file gateway: This creates a bridge between the on-premises file system and the S3 bucket, allowing data to be copied from one location to another. • Copy the data from the on-premises storage to the new file gateway endpoint: This ensures that all application data is migrated to the new shared storage location.

Option A For me it's quite clear: "The solutions architect must migrate the application data to AWS to its new location WHILE STILL ALLOWING the on-premises application to access the data."

I guess that proper answer is - D We need to implement solition that uses Amazon S3 bucket for shared storage, but during migration phase - data should be avliable throught SMB. Only D option fits in this requirements
