What should the solutions architect do to meet these requirements?
Set up an AWS Storage Gateway file gateway.
Set up Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS)
Set up AWS Storage Gateway as a volume gateway
Set up an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume.
Explanations:
AWS Storage Gateway file gateway allows seamless integration of on-premises applications with cloud storage, providing file-based access to Amazon S3. It reduces the on-premises footprint while minimizing storage costs.
Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) is a scalable file storage service designed for use with Amazon EC2. It is not suitable for extending on-premises file shares to the cloud.
AWS Storage Gateway as a volume gateway is used for block-level storage (not file storage), which is not suitable for managing large numbers of files like in a document management application.
Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) provides block-level storage, which is more suitable for databases or applications requiring a file system to mount as a disk. It is not ideal for managing large-scale file shares like in the document management use case.
