A Company Has an On-Premises Application That Collects Data and Stores

question 208

Multiple Choice

A company has an on-premises application that collects data and stores it to an on-premises NFS server. The company recently set up a 10 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection. The company is running out of storage capacity on premises. The company needs to migrate the application data from on premises to the AWS Cloud while maintaining low-latency access to the data from the on-premises application. What should a solutions architect do to meet these requirements?

• A) Deploy AWS Storage Gateway for the application data, and use the file gateway to store the data in Amazon S3. Connect the on-premises application servers to the file gateway using NFS.
• B) Attach an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system to the NFS server, and copy the application data to the EFS file system. Then connect the on-premises application to Amazon EFS.
• C) Configure AWS Storage Gateway as a volume gateway. Make the application data available to the on-premises application from the NFS server and with Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) snapshots.
• D) Create an AWS DataSync agent with the NFS server as the source location and an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system as the destination for application data transfer. Connect the on-premises application to the EFS file system.
