Question
A company is running its SAP S/4HANA production system on AWS. The system is 5 TB in size and has a high performance and IOPS demand for the SAP HANA data storage. The company is using Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) General Purpose SSD (gp2) storage with burstable IOPS to meet this demand. An SAP solutions architect needs to review the current storage layout and recommend a more cost-effective solution without compromising storage performance. What should the SAP solutions architect recommend to meet these requirements?
Options
- ASwitch from burstable IOPS to allocated IOPS for the gp2 storage.
- BReplace all the gp2 storage with Provisioned IOPS SSD (io2) storage.
- CReplace all the gp2 storage with gp3 storage. Configure the required IOPS.
- DReplace all the gp2 storage with gp3 storage at baseline IOPS.

Explanation
Amazon EBS gp3 volumes offer the ability to independently increase IOPS and throughput without needing to provision additional block storage capacity. This means you can meet the performance requirements of your workloads and scale as needed without over-provisioning and paying for unused resources, making it more cost-effective than gp2. You should replace gp2 with gp3 and configure the required IOPS to meet the high performance and IOPS demand of your SAP HANA system.
