Topic #: 2

A data analysis company has two SAP landscapes that consist of sandbox development QA, pre-production and production servers. One landscape is on Windows and the other landscape is on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The servers reside in a room m a building that other tenants share.

An SAP solutions architect proposes to migrate the SAP applications to AWS The SAP solutions architect wants to move the production backups to AWS and wants to make the backups highly available to restore >n case of unavailability of an on-premises server.

Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

ATake a backup of the production servers Implement an AWS Storage Gateway Volume Gateway Create file shares by using the Storage Gateway Volume Gateway Copy the backup files to the file shares through NFS and 9MB.

BTake a backup of the production servers Send those backups to tape drives implement an AWS Storage Gateway Tape Gateway Send the backups to Amazon S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) through the S3 console Move the backups immediately to S3 Glacier Deep Archive

CImplement a third-party tool to take images of the SAP application servers and database server Take regular snapshots at 1-hour intervals send the snapshots to Amazon S3 Glacier directly through the S3 Glacier console Store the same images in different S3 buckets in different AWS Regions

DTake a backup of the production servers Implement an Amazon S3 File Gateway Create file shares by using the S3 File Gateway Copy the backup files lo the file shares through NFS and SMB Map backup files directly to Amazon S3 Configure an S3 Lifecycle policy to send the backup files to S3 Glacier based on the company's data retention policy

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

Take a backup of the production servers, Implement an Amazon S3 File Gateway, Create file shares by using the S3 File Gateway, Copy the backup files to the file shares through NFS and SMB, Map backup files directly to Amazon S3 and Configure an S3 Lifecycle policy to send the backup files to S3 Glacier based on the company's data retention policy. This option is cost-effective because it avoids the need for third-party tools, tape drives and storage gateways, and reduces the amount of time and resources needed for the migration process. Additionally, the S3 lifecycle policy allows you to automate the storage and archiving process and ensure that your data is stored in the most cost-effective way.

Option D seems like a good choice. The S3 File Gateway allows for easy integration with S3, and the lifecycle policy ensures the backups are stored in the most cost-effective way.

I disagree, I believe option C is better because it involves taking regular snapshots.

I think option B is the most cost-effective solution. Tape drives are a reliable and affordable way to store backups, and S3 Glacier provides long-term, low-cost storage for the backups.
