a. Christina's team leader asked her to store block-level data in AWS storage services. Which of the following AWS storage services should be used by Christina to store block-level data?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

1.Block-Level Storage: Block-level storage is a type of data storage typically used for storing file systems and handling raw storage volumes. It allows for individual management of data blocks1.

1.Amazon EBS: Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) provides high-performance block storage service designed for use with Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) for both throughput and transaction-intensive workloads at any scale2.

1.Data Types: Amazon EBS is suitable for structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data, making it a versatile choice for Christina's organization's needs2.

1.Use Cases: Common use cases for Amazon EBS include databases, enterprise applications, containerized applications, big data analytics engines, file systems, and media workflows2.

1.Exclusion of Other Options: Amazon Glacier is for long-term archival storage, Amazon EFS is for file storage, and Amazon S3 is for object storage. These services do not provide block-level storage like Amazon EBS does3.

I thought Amazon Glacier was for archiving data, so it definitely wouldn’t be block storage. I’m leaning towards EBS as well.

Hold up, isn't Amazon Glacier more for cold storage? I doubt that's the right choice here. I'd go with Amazon EBS, just like Cecilia said.

Hmm, I'm not sure. I'd have to double-check the details of each service, but I'm leaning towards option C, Amazon EFS, since it's a file storage service that can handle structured and unstructured data.
