A company has 500 TB of data in an S3 Standard bucket. Access patterns are unpredictable; some objects are accessed daily, while others haven't been touched in months. How can the company optimize storage costs with the LEAST operational overhead?

Answer options:

Create an S3 Lifecycle policy to move objects older than 30 days to S3 Standard-IA.

Create an S3 Lifecycle policy to transition all objects to S3 Intelligent-Tiering.

Use S3 Storage Lens to manually identify and delete unused objects.

Transition all data to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval.

How to approach this question

Identify the S3 storage class designed for unpredictable access patterns.

B.Create an S3 Lifecycle policy to transition all objects to S3 Intelligent-Tiering.✓ Correct

Create an S3 Lifecycle policy to transition all objects to S3 Intelligent-Tiering.

S3 Intelligent-Tiering is designed specifically for data with unknown or changing access patterns.

Choosing Standard-IA for unpredictable workloads, risking high retrieval fees.
