Q: 8
A company is running an application on premises and wants to use AWS for data backup. All of the
data must be available locally. The backup application can write only to block-based storage that is
compatible with the Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX).
Which backup solution will meet these requirements?

Option D saw this format in a practice set too. Stored volumes keep the full copy local while syncing to AWS, so matches the need for POSIX block and local access. Makes sense here.
Option D. encountered exactly similar question in my exam and D fits since stored volumes keep all data on-prem.
C/D? Official practice tests push the difference between cached vs stored volumes, so worth reviewing that section in the official guide.
Stored volumes is the only real option if you need all the data local. D
D , C is a trap if you don't notice the "all data local" part.
Not C, D fits better since stored volumes make sure everything stays local. C is just cache.
Its D
C Cached volumes should work since the hot data is what matters most for access.
Why wouldn't C work here? Cached volumes only keep hot data local, not the full dataset, right?
D imo. Stored volumes are the only way all data stays fully local for POSIX block-based backups. Cached just wouldn't work based on the question details.
