A company requires a durable storage service to archive infrequently accessed data for long-term retention with a retrieval time ranging from minutes to several hours. Which option should the company select to optimally meet its requirements?
Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS)
Amazon S3 One Zone-Infrequent Access (One Zone-IA)
Amazon S3 Glacier is the best choice for archiving data that is infrequently accessed and which allows for longer retrieval times. It is designed for long-term backup and archival storage needs, providing high durability at a lower cost. Amazon S3 Standard and One Zone-Infrequent Access (One Zone-IA) are designed for more frequent access, thus resulting in higher costs for storage and might not be as cost-effective for the described use case. Amazon EBS is block storage primarily used for persistent storage for Amazon EC2 instances, so it is not optimized for archival purposes.
