A company is migrating its SAP S/4HANA landscape from on premises to AWS. An SAP solutions architect is designing a backup solution for the SAP S/4HANA landscape on AWS. The backup solution will use AWS Backint Agent for SAP HANA (AWS Backint agent) to store backups in Amazon S3. The company's backup policy for source systems requires a retention period of 150 days for weekly full online backups. The backup policy requires a retention period of 30 days for daily transaction log backups. The company must keep the same backup policy on AWS while maximizing data resiliency. The company needs the ability to retrieve the backup data one or two times each year within 10 hours of the retrieval request. The SAP solutions architect must configure AWS Backint agent and S3 Lifecycle rules according to these parameters. Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?
- AConfigure the target S3 bucket to use S3 Glacier Deep Archive for the backup files. Create S3 Lifecycle rules on the S3 bucket to delete full online backup files that are older than 150 days and to delete log backup files that are older than 30 days.
- BConfigure the target S3 bucket to use S3 Standard storage for the backup files. Create an S3 Lifecycle rule on the S3 bucket to move all the backup files to S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval. Create additional S3 Lifecycle rules to delete full online backup files that are older than 150 days and to delete log backup files that are older than 30 days.
- CConfigure the target S3 bucket to use S3 One Zone-Infrequent Access (S3 One Zone-IA) for the backup files. Create S3 Lifecycle rules on the S3 bucket to move full online backup files that are older than 30 days to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval and to delete log backup files that are older than 30 days. Create an additional S3 Lifecycle rule to delete full online backup files that are older than 150 days.
- DConfigure the target S3 bucket to use S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) for the backup files. Create S3 Lifecycle rules on the S3 bucket to move full online backup files that are older than 30 days to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval and to delete log backup files that are older than 30 days. Create an additional S3 Lifecycle rule to delete full online backup files that are older than 150 days. (correct answer)

The correct answer is D. Option D: Configure the target S3 bucket to use S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) for the backup files. Create S3 Lifecycle rules on the S3 bucket to move full online backup files that are older than 30 days to S3...
Explanation
Amazon S3 Glacier offers low-cost archival storage for infrequently accessed data. S3 Standard-IA reduces cost for infrequently accessed data that still needs high availability. S3 Lifecycle policies automatically transition or expire objects to control storage cost. This option delivers the requirement at the lowest cost.
