AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 Practice Question
Your company needs to securely receive files via SFTP from external clients. They want to avoid managing any servers and minimize operational overhead. Which managed service should you use to meet these requirements?
AWS Transfer Family provides fully managed service for file transfers directly into and out of Amazon S3 using Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), FTPS, and FTP. With AWS Transfer Family, you can set up an SFTP server without needing to manage any servers, thus minimizing operational overhead and eliminating the need to handle infrastructure.
AWS DataSync is used for transferring large amounts of data online between on-premises storage and AWS storage services but does not provide SFTP endpoints.
AWS Storage Gateway helps integrate on-premises environments with cloud storage for hybrid deployments but doesn't offer SFTP functionality.
Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration speeds up file uploads and downloads to and from Amazon S3 by leveraging Amazon CloudFront's globally distributed edge locations. It does not provide SFTP access or serverless file transfer capabilities.
