Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 topic 1 question 165 discussion

A company is migrating a document processing workload to AWS. The company has updated many applications to natively use the Amazon S3 API to store, retrieve, and modify documents that a processing server generates at a rate of approximately 5 documents every second. After the document processing is finished, customers can download the documents directly from Amazon S3.

During the migration, the company discovered that it could not immediately update the processing server that generates many documents to support the S3 API. The server runs on Linux and requires fast local access to the files that the server generates and modifies. When the server finishes processing, the files must be available to the public for download within 30 minutes.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST amount of effort?

  • A. Migrate the application to an AWS Lambda function. Use the AWS SDK for Java to generate, modify, and access the files that the company stores directly in Amazon S3.
  • B. Set up an Amazon S3 File Gateway and configure a file share that is linked to the document store. Mount the file share on an Amazon EC2 instance by using NFS. When changes occur in Amazon S3, initiate a RefreshCache API call to update the S3 File Gateway.
  • C. Configure Amazon FSx for Lustre with an import and export policy. Link the new file system to an S3 bucket. Install the Lustre client and mount the document store to an Amazon EC2 instance by using NFS.
  • D. Configure AWS DataSync to connect to an Amazon EC2 instance. Configure a task to synchronize the generated files to and from Amazon S3.

B is correct imo C is incorrect, FSx for Luster doesn't support NFS protocol It actually support only POSIX protocol: Custom (POSIX-compliant) protocol optimized for performance

Selected Answer: C
C: Amazon FSx for Lustre is a fully managed service that provides cost-effective, high-performance, scalable storage for compute workloads. Powered by Lustre, the world’s most popular high-performance file system, FSx for Lustre offers shared storage with sub-ms latencies, up to terabytes per second of throughput, and millions of IOPS. FSx for Lustre file systems can also be linked to Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) buckets, allowing you to access and process data concurrently from both a high-performance file system and from the S3 API.

I wouldnt choose Lustre.. would only pick it if its related to HPC (high performance computing), the amount of files generated here is nothing..

I disagree with option C. This is an example of how to mount a Lustre from an EC2 Linux system. it does not use NFS sudo mount -t lustre <fsx-dns-name>@tcp:/<mount-point> Amazon FSx for Lustre provides its own Lustre-specific mount command and protocol for mounting the file system on Linux instances. The lustre file system type in the mount command indicates that it is specifically for mounting Lustre-based file systems, such as Amazon FSx for Lustre. I would still go for option B

Note that it keeps saying "The Server" implying 1 server and not a fleet or multiple. NFS is from 1 client to 1 server. So C is incorrect

Option C is not possible: how will you mount the document store on the EC2 instance through the Lustre client using NFS? Lustre is not compatible with NFS!

B is right. Though it is meant to be used to with on-premise in Hybrid environment, it is possible to use it on EC2.

B is right. If it wasn't possible to update that Linux server at that moment it implies they would have to remain it on premises for a while, in this case Amazon S3 File Gateway is the way to go.

just because NFS mentioned with Lustre, but everything else is pointing to the Lustre: Linux, fast, read/writes to S3

B. Extra effort due to refreshCache API D. DataSync runs in task schedule, which can't run faster than once per hour. So remaining answer is C

The core of the problem is make the file available in S3 for When the server finishes processing, the files must be available to the public for download within 30 minutes. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST amount of effort? I think Option D (AWS DataSync) is a more straightforward and efficient choice.

DataSync task cannot run faster than 1 hour. "Even with a cron expression, you can't schedule a task to run at an interval faster than 1 hour." https://docs.aws.amazon.com/datasync/latest/userguide/task-scheduling.html

Selected Answer: B
B as file gateway seems simple working solution for this. Lustre does not support NFS and might be an overkill for this solution - its primary used for HPC clusters. DataSync is rather for batch daad migrations and periodic data migration jobs, isn't it?
