Question
A company discovers that its production environment and disaster recovery (DR) environment are deployed to the same AWS Region. All the production applications run on Amazon EC2 instances and are deployed by AWS CloudFormation. The applications use an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP volume for application storage. No application data resides on the EC2 instances. A DevOps engineer copies the required AMIs to a new DR Region. The DevOps engineer also updates the CloudFormation code to accept a Region as a parameter. The storage needs to have an RPO of 10 minutes in the DR Region. Which solution will meet these requirements?
Options
- ACreate an Amazon S3 bucket in both Regions. Configure S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) for
- BUse AWS Backup to create a backup vault and a custom backup plan that has a 10-minute
- CCreate an AWS Lambda function to create snapshots of the instance store volumes that are
- DCreate an FSx for ONTAP instance in the DR Region. Configure a 5-minute schedule for a

Explanation
Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP provides SnapMirror, a data replication technology specifically designed for ONTAP volumes. It can replicate volumes from one region to another with a low RPO. By configuring SnapMirror with a 5-minute schedule, you ensure that the replication to the DR Region happens frequently enough to meet the requirement of a 10-minute RPO. Since no application data resides on the EC2 instances and all data is stored in the FSx for ONTAP volume, using SnapMirror to replicate the storage directly ensures data consistency between regions without impacting the EC2 instances.
