Which AWS solution meets these requirements?
Create an AWS DataSync task that shares the data as a mountable file system. Mount the file system to the application server.
Create an Amazon EC2 Windows instance. Install and configure a Windows file share role on the instance. Connect the application server to the file share.
Create an Amazon FSx for Windows File Server file system. Attach the file system to the origin server. Connect the application server to the file system.
Create an Amazon S3 bucket. Assign an IAM role to the application to grant access to the S3 bucket. Mount the S3 bucket to the application server.
Explanations:
AWS DataSync is designed for data transfer tasks, not for providing SMB access to data. It cannot directly share data as a mountable file system.
Setting up an EC2 Windows instance and configuring a Windows file share role requires manual management and is not fully managed by AWS. This is not a fully managed solution.
Amazon FSx for Windows File Server provides a fully managed SMB file system that supports the required SMB access for shared storage. This is the correct solution.
Amazon S3 does not support SMB protocol. S3 is an object storage service, and although it can be mounted using certain tools, it is not designed for SMB access and is not a fully managed file system solution for this use case.
