A startup company is designing a web application that will generate and handle large quantities of data that are sporadically accessed. The data once created will be mostly read, with very rare writes occurring after the initial creation. The company wants to store this data in a cost-effective manner while ensuring that it remains immediately accessible when needed. Which AWS storage solution should they primarily consider for this use case?
You selected this option
Implement Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) for their data storage requirements.
You selected this option
Use Amazon S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) for their data storage needs.
You selected this option
Store their data using Amazon S3 Glacier to ensure low-cost storage.
You selected this option
Utilize Amazon S3 Standard for high availability and rapid access to their data.
Amazon S3 Glacier is designed for long-term storage of data that is infrequently accessed and provides a cost-effective solution for data archiving and backup. However, it is not suitable for scenarios requiring immediate access, which is a requirement here. Amazon S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) is a storage class designed to provide high availability and low latency for infrequently accessed data with a lower storage cost compared to Amazon S3 Standard. Amazon S3 Standard is designed for frequently accessed data and does not offer the same cost benefits for infrequently accessed data as S3 Standard-IA. Amazon EBS is block storage that is used with EC2 instances for volumes that require frequent and rapid read/write operations and is not the cost-effective choice for infrequently accessed data.
