AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 650

What is the total volume of data that can be stored in Amazon S3?

Answer options

• A. 10 PB
• B. 50 PB
• C. 100 PB
• D. Virtually unlimited

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Amazon S3 is designed to provide highly scalable storage, meaning there is no maximum limit on the total volume of data or number of objects you can store. While individual objects are restricted to a maximum size of 5 TB, the overall bucket and account storage capacity remains virtually unlimited. Therefore, fixed limits like 10 PB, 50 PB, or 100 PB are incorrect.
