In this lesson

Prepare for the SAP-C03 exam (AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional). In this lesson: object and file storage with lifecycle rules, Intelligent-Tiering, and Glacier, block storage with gp3 and Provisioned IOPS, database costs with DynamoDB capacity modes, reserved DB instances, Database Savings Plans, and Aurora Serverless, and the cost of backups and logs. Includes three original practice questions.

Preview the topics
  • Twenty petabytes of customer documents sit in S3 Standard, and nobody can predict which ones will be opened again, or when. What should the architect choose to cut storage costs without retrieval fees?
  • Database servers use four-terabyte gp2 volumes to get 12,000 IOPS, although each one holds far less data. What should the architect use for the new volumes?
  • Three hundred accounts send application logs to CloudWatch Logs, most log groups have no retention setting, and the logs are only searched during rare investigations. What should the architect do?
