SAA-C03 · Question #797

A company uses Amazon Redshift for its data warehouse. The company wants to ensure high durability for its data in case of any component failure. What should a solutions architect recommend?

The correct answer is B. Enable cross-Region snapshots. Enabling cross-Region snapshots copies Redshift snapshots to another AWS Region, providing high durability and protection against component failures or Region-wide outages. This ensures the data can be recovered even if the primary Region experiences a failure.
