A company runs business applications in an on-premises data center and in the AWS Cloud.The company needs a shared file system that can be available to both environments.

Which AWS service meets these requirements?

Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS)

Amazon S3

Amazon ElastiCache

Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS)

Explanations:

Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) provides block storage for use with EC2 instances only and is not natively accessible from on-premises environments.

Amazon S3 is an object storage service and does not provide a shared file system interface, making it unsuitable for applications requiring file system access.

Amazon ElastiCache is a managed in-memory data store for caching purposes, not a shared file system for file-based workloads across environments.

Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) provides a scalable shared file system accessible from both AWS and on-premises environments via AWS Direct Connect or VPN connections.
