Which solution meets these requirements?
Create an AWS Storage Gateway file gateway. Create a file share that uses the required client protocol. Connect the application server to the file share.
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 Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system, and configure it to support Lustre. Attach the file system to the origin server. Connect the application server to the file system.
Create an Amazon FSx for Lustre file system. Attach the file system to the origin server. Connect the application server to the file system.
Explanations:
AWS Storage Gateway file gateway does not natively support Lustre clients. It primarily supports SMB and NFS protocols, which do not meet the requirement for Lustre access.
While a Windows file share on an EC2 instance could be set up, it would not provide the necessary Lustre support as the solution is not fully managed and lacks native integration with Lustre clients.
Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) does not support Lustre. EFS is a general-purpose file system optimized for a wide range of use cases but lacks the specific capabilities required for Lustre client access.
Amazon FSx for Lustre is a fully managed service designed specifically to support Lustre file systems. It can be easily attached to the origin server and allows Lustre clients to access data seamlessly, meeting all the requirements.
To the best of my knowledge, the answer is:
Create an Amazon FSx for Lustre file system. Attach the file system to the origin server. Connect the application server to the file system.
