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

A company collects data for temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure in cities across multiple continents. The average volume of data that the company collects from each site daily is 500 GB. Each site has a high-speed Internet connection.
The company wants to aggregate the data from all these global sites as quickly as possible in a single Amazon S3 bucket. The solution must minimize operational complexity.
Which solution meets these requirements?

  • A. Turn on S3 Transfer Acceleration on the destination S3 bucket. Use multipart uploads to directly upload site data to the destination S3 bucket.
  • B. Upload the data from each site to an S3 bucket in the closest Region. Use S3 Cross-Region Replication to copy objects to the destination S3 bucket. Then remove the data from the origin S3 bucket.
  • C. Schedule AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized device jobs daily to transfer data from each site to the closest Region. Use S3 Cross-Region Replication to copy objects to the destination S3 bucket.
  • D. Upload the data from each site to an Amazon EC2 instance in the closest Region. Store the data in an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume. At regular intervals, take an EBS snapshot and copy it to the Region that contains the destination S3 bucket. Restore the EBS volume in that Region.

Keyword: From GLOBAL sites as quickly as possible in a SINGLE S3 bucket. Minimize operational complexity A. is correct because S3 Transfer Acceleration is support for high speed transfer in Edge location and you can upload it immediately. Also with multipart uploads your big file can be uploaded in parallel. B, C, D. is not minimize operational and fast when compare to answer A

General line: Collect huge amount of the files across multiple continents Conditions: High speed Internet connectivity Task: aggregate the data from all in a single S3 bucket Requirements: as quick as possible, minimize operational complexity Correct answer A: S3 Transfer Acceleration because: - ideally works with objects for long-distance transfer (uses Edge Locations) - can speed up content transfers to and from S3 as much as 50-500% - use cases: mobile & web application uploads and downloads, distributed office transfers, data exchange with trusted partners. Generally for sharing of large data sets between companies, customers can set up special access to their S3 buckets with accelerated uploads to speed data exchanges and the pace of innovation. B - about disaster recovery C - about transferring data between your local environment and the AWS Cloud D - about disaster recovery

C, we DO have a "local environment" (a "site") that collect data, and THAT data must go to "the AWS cloud". Why not C? The stem says nothing about large objects, which would be a requirement for the "multipart upload" that is mentioned.

Selected Answer: A
Options B and D are technically possible solutions, but. B. The cost is high, the process is slower, and it is more complex. C. This option is not feasible. You would need to purchase Snowball devices, wait for them to arrive, upload the 500GB of data, and then ship them back. This process is not practical for daily use. Snowball devices are designed for one-time uploads of terabytes of data, not for routine or smaller-scale transfers. D. Using EC2 instances, EBS volumes, and cross-Region snapshots is also not ideal. The cost is significantly higher, and the process is overly complex for this scenario.

Hi All, I have gone through the exam today and it was bit tough, none of the questions in the exam came from examtopics, i have gone mostly around 150 questions. The questions we go through here are quite easy compared to actual ones. i just suggest everyone to go through some youtube ( sthithapragna) videos as well apart from examtopics. YT videos were found quite accurate to the exams which i have attempted today.(1/13/2025).Hope this review helps everyone.

Explanation: Option B suggests uploading the data from each site to an S3 bucket in the closest Region. This ensures that the data is transferred quickly over high-speed Internet connections. By using S3 Cross-Region Replication, the objects can be automatically copied to the destination S3 bucket, allowing for easy aggregation

Selected Answer: A
AWS Global Accelerator is a networking service that improves the performance and availability of your applications by leveraging the global infrastructure of AWS. It provides two key benefits: Improved Performance: Global Accelerator uses the AWS global network to direct user traffic to the nearest AWS Region or endpoint, reducing latency. It supports TCP and UDP traffic and can significantly enhance the performance of latency-sensitive applications, such as gaming, IoT, or streaming. Increased Availability: Global Accelerator provides automatic failover between endpoints in multiple AWS Regions or Availability Zones. If one endpoint becomes unavailable, the traffic is rerouted to the next best endpoint.
