A company is transitioning its application from on-premises infrastructure to the AWS Cloud. During the planning phase, they have raised concerns about ensuring high availability and effective disaster recovery for their legacy Windows file server. This server holds sensitive, business-critical data that is irreplaceable in case of corruption or loss. Compliance mandates that this data must not be transmitted over the public internet. The company prefers to utilize AWS managed services whenever feasible. They have chosen to store their data in an Amazon FSx for Windows File Server system. A solutions architect is tasked with designing a solution to replicate this data to another AWS Region for disaster recovery purposes. Which of the following solutions will fulfill these requirements?
Explanation:
The correct answer is C. This option suggests creating an FSx for Windows File Server file system in the Disaster Recovery (DR) Region and establishing connectivity between the VPC in the primary Region and the VPC in the DR Region using VPC peering. It also involves configuring AWS DataSync to communicate using interface VPC endpoints with AWS PrivateLink. This setup ensures that data does not travel across the public internet, meeting the compliance requirement. Additionally, using DataSync allows for efficient and secure data transfer between the two regions, fulfilling the requirement for disaster recovery and data protection.
