Amazon SAA-C03 Exam - Topic 1 Question 62 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's SAA-C03 exam
Question #: 62
Topic #: 1
[All SAA-C03 Questions]

A company needs to retain application logs files for a critical application for 10 years. The application team regularly accesses logs from the past month for troubleshooting, but logs older than 1 month are rarely accessed. The application generates more than 10 TB of logs per month.

Which storage option meets these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

You need S3 to be able to archive the logs after one month. Cannot do that with CloudWatch Logs.

I recall that S3 Lifecycle policies are generally more efficient for this kind of log management, but I can't remember if CloudWatch would complicate things.

I’m a bit confused about whether AWS Backup is necessary here. I feel like we might have covered that in a different context.

I think using S3 with lifecycle policies makes sense since it automates the moving of logs to Glacier. That sounds familiar from our practice questions.

Option B all the way! S3 and Glacier Deep Archive are a match made in heaven. Though I do wonder if the logs will haunt the developers in their dreams, like ghosts of bugs past.

I agree with Bobbye. Option B is the way to go. S3 is reliable and Glacier Deep Archive is dirt cheap for cold storage. Plus, no need to mess with CloudWatch Logs or AWS Backup, which adds unnecessary complexity.
