AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 390

A company wants to define a central data protection policy that works across AWS services for compute, storage, and database resources.

Which AWS service will meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. AWS Batch
• B. AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery
• C. AWS Backup
• D. Amazon FSx

Correct answer: C

Explanation

AWS Backup is a fully managed service that centralizes and automates data protection across multiple AWS services, including compute, storage, and databases. AWS Batch is designed for containerized batch computing workloads, while AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery focuses on minimizing downtime and data loss through continuous replication. Amazon FSx is a fully managed file system service and does not function as a centralized, cross-service backup policy manager.
