Amazon FSx has native support for Windows file system features and for the industry-standard Server Message Block (SMB) protocol to access file storage over a network. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/fsx/latest/WindowsGuide/what-is.html

All the answers are wrong here by people. We don't know whether the user is using Windows based applications. AWS Storage Gateway also supports SMB protocol. This is the answer.

Selected Answer: D
A. involves using Storage Gateway, but it does not specifically mention support for SMB clients. It may not meet the requirement of using SMB clients to access data. B. involves using Storage Gateway with tape gateway configuration, which is primarily used for archiving data to S3. It does not provide native support for SMB clients to access data. C. involves manually setting up and configuring a Windows file share on an EC2 Windows instance. While it allows SMB clients to access data, it is not a fully managed solution as it requires manual setup and maintenance. D. involves creating an FSx for Windows File Server file system, which is a fully managed Windows file system that supports SMB clients. It provides an easy-to-use shared storage solution with native SMB support. Based on the requirements of using SMB clients and needing a fully managed solution, option D is the most suitable choice.
