Which combination of solutions should a solutions architect recommend to support the storage needs of the application?
(Choose two.)
Amazon S3 for cold data storage
Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) for cold data storage
Amazon S3 for high-performance parallel storage
Amazon FSx for Lustre for high-performance parallel storage
Amazon FSx for Windows for high-performance parallel storage
Explanations:
Amazon S3 is a highly scalable object storage service ideal for cold data storage, making it suitable for the application’s needs when it is not actively running.
Amazon EFS is primarily designed for shared file storage and may not be the best fit for cold data storage compared to S3, which is optimized for such use cases.
Amazon S3 is not designed for high-performance parallel storage. While it is excellent for cold storage, it does not provide the necessary performance for HPC applications during active runs.
Amazon FSx for Lustre is specifically designed for high-performance computing workloads, providing the required performance and scalability for parallel storage during application runs.
Amazon FSx for Windows is optimized for Windows-based applications and general file sharing, but it is not specifically tailored for the high-performance parallel storage needs of HPC applications like FSx for Lustre.
