The correct answer is B. Reorganize the Oracle data files into a striped volume of three 3 TB General Purpose SSD (gp2). Since aach 3TB gp2 volume can provide a maximum of 9,000 IOPS (3 IOPS * 3,000 GB). Three of them combined can provide 27,000 IOPS.
Question
A company is running its on-premises SAP ERP Central Component (SAP ECC) system on an Oracle database on Oracle Enterprise Linux. The database is 1 TB in size and uses 27,000 IOPS for its peak performance Multiple SSD volumes are striped to store Oracle data files in separate sapdata directories to gain the required IOPS. The company is planning to move this workload to AWS. The company chooses high I/O bandwidth instances with a Nitro hypervisor to host the target database instance. Downtime is not a constraint for the migration. The company needs an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) storage layout that optimizes cost for the migration. How should the company reorganize the Oracle data files to meet these requirements?
Options
- AReorganize the Oracle data files into one 9 TB General Purpose SSD (gp2) EBS volume.
- BReorganize the Oracle data files into a striped volume of three 3 TB General Purpose SSD (gp2)
- CReorganize the Oracle data files into one 1 TB General Purpose SSD (gp3) EBS volume with
- DReorganize the Oracle data files into ten 100 GB General Purpose SSD (gp3) EBS volumes.
