Q367. A company stores a large volume of image files in an Amazon S3 bucket. The images need to be readily available for the first 180 days. The images are infrequently accessed for the next 180 days After 360 days, the images need to be archived but must be available instantly upon request After 5 years, only auditors can access the images. The auditors must be able to retrieve the images within 12 hours. The images cannot be lost during this process.A developer will use S3 Standard storage for the first 180 days. The developer needs to configure an S3 Lifecycle ruleWhich solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Correct Answer: C. Transition the objects to S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) after 180 days. S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval after 360 days. and S3 Glacier Deep Archive after 5 years

Explanation

The most cost-effective solution that meets the given requirements would be option C: Transition the objects to S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) after 180 days, S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval after 360 days, and S3 Glacier Deep Archive after 5 years.Here's how this solution aligns with the requirements:For the first 180 days, the images need to be readily available.oring them in S3 Standard storage ensures immediate access.After 180 days, the images are infrequently accessed for the next 180 days. Transitioning them to S3 Standard-IA reduces the storage cost while still providing quick access when needed. After 360 days, the images need to be archived but must be available instantly upon request. Moving them to S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval provides a lower-cost archival storage option while maintaining fast retrieval times.After 5 years, only auditors can access the images within 12 hours. Archiving the images in S3 Glacier Deep Archive allows long-term storage at the lowest cost, while still meeting the requirement of retrieval within 12 hours.By using a combination of S3 Standard-IA, S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval, and S3 Glacier Deep Archive, you can optimize costs based on the access patterns and retention requirements of the images.
