AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 87

A media company produces new video files on-premises every day with a total size of around 100 GBS after compression All files have a size of 1 -2 GB and need to be uploaded to Amazon S3 every night in a fixed time window between 3am and 5am Current upload takes almost 3 hours, although less than half of the available bandwidth is used.
What step(s) would ensure that the file uploads are able to complete in the allotted time window?

Answer options

• A. Increase your network bandwidth to provide faster throughput to S3
• B. Upload the files in parallel to S3
• C. Pack all files into a single archive, upload it to S3, then extract the files in AWS
• D. Use AWS Import/Export to transfer the video files

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as uploading files in parallel will significantly reduce the time required to complete the uploads, allowing for multiple files to be sent simultaneously. Option A would only provide marginal improvements if the current setup is already underutilized. Option C may simplify the upload process but does not guarantee completion within the time frame, while D is not suitable for regular daily uploads since it requires physical shipment of data.
