Content Domain 4: Billing, Pricing, and Support

A company needs to use Amazon S3 to store audio files that are each 5 megabytes in size. The company will rarely access the files, but the company must be able to retrieve the files immediately.

Which S3 storage class will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

  • A S3 Standard
  • B S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA)
  • C S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval
  • D S3 Glacier Deep Archive
Explanation

S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) is cost-optimized for infrequently accessed data that requires immediate retrieval. It has lower storage costs than S3 Standard but can be retrieved instantly. S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval has 1–5 minute retrieval time and is suited for archival, not immediate access. Standard is too expensive for infrequent data.
