Answer should be "D". To upload existing data to Amazon S3 Glacier (S3 Glacier), you might consider using one of the AWS Snowball device types to import data into Amazon S3, and then move it to the S3 Glacier storage class for archival using lifecycle rules. When you transition Amazon S3 objects to the S3 Glacier storage class, Amazon S3 internally uses S3 Glacier for durable storage at lower cost. Although the objects are stored in S3 Glacier, they remain Amazon S3 objects that you manage in Amazon S3, and you cannot access them directly through S3 Glacier. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazonglacier/latest/dev/uploading-an-archive.html

Selected Answer: D
Currently, there is no way of uploading objects directly to S3 Glacier using a Snowball Edge. Thus, you first have to upload your objects into S3 Standard, and then use S3 lifecycle policies to transition the files to S3 Glacier.29-Sept-2021

I think D should be the correct answer. You can only upload data to S3 and use lifecycle rules to move data to the S3 Glacier storage. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazonglacier/latest/dev/uploading-an-archive.html

• Snowball cannot import to Glacier directly • You must use Amazon S3 first, in combination with an S3 lifecycle policy so, it must be 'D'
