AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) — Question 304

In AWS, which service provides a reliable and inexpensive way to backup and archive CloudTrail log files?

Answer options

• A. Amazon Archiver
• B. Amazon Glacier
• C. AWS Storage Gateway
• D. Amazon Elastic Block Store

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Amazon Glacier is designed specifically for secure, durable, and extremely low-cost data archiving and backup, making it the ideal choice for storing long-term CloudTrail logs. Amazon Elastic Block Store and AWS Storage Gateway are not intended for low-cost, long-term cold storage archiving, while Amazon Archiver is a non-existent AWS service.
