A digital marketing company is looking to store a vast amount of static content which includes images, videos, and marketing materials that are accessed irregularly but must be preserved indefinitely. They require a cost-effective solution with high durability. Which of the following storage options would best meet the company's needs?
You selected this option
Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS)
You selected this option
Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) with BLOB storage
Amazon S3 Glacier is a storage service optimized for infrequently accessed data, or 'cold data', where retrieval times of several hours are suitable. It is designed for long-term storage of data that is infrequently accessed and provides high durability at a lower cost than storage options engineered for frequent access. This aligns with the company's needs to store static content that is accessed irregularly yet must be kept indefinitely. Amazon EBS and Amazon EFS are not as cost-effective as Amazon S3 for infrequently accessed and fully managed object storage. Although Amazon RDS supports BLOB storage, it is primarily used for structured data within a database and is not a cost-effective solution for the use case described.
