Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional topic 1 question 863 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional
Question #: 863
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional Questions]

A company is running several large workloads on Amazon EC2 instances. Each EC2 instance has multiple Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes attached to it. Once each day, an AWS Lambda function invokes the creation of EBS volume snapshots. These snapshots accumulate until an administrator manually purges them.
The company must maintain backups for a minimum of 30 days. A solutions architect needs to reduce the costs of this process.
Which solution meets these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

  • A. Search AWS Marketplace. Find a third-party solution to deploy to automatically manage the EBS volume backups.
  • B. Create a second Lambda function to move the EBS snapshots that are older than 30 days to Amazon S3 Glacier Deep Archive.
  • C. Set an Amazon S3 Lifecycle policy on the $3 bucket that contains the snapshots. Create a rule with an expiration action to delete EBS snapshots that are older than 30 days.
  • D. Migrate the backup functionality to Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager (Amazon DLM). Create a lifecycle policy for the daily backup of the EBS volumes. Set the retention period for the EBS snapshots to 30 days.
