The correct answer is C. Create a lifecycle rule to expireincomplete multipart uploadsafter 7 days. E. Create a lifecycle rule to transition objects toS3 Standard-IA after 180 days. These lifecycle rules optimize storage costs by automatically cleaning up incomplete multipart uploads and transitioning infrequently accessed objects to a lower-cost storage class after 180 days.
Question
A company has an application that stores user-uploaded videos in an Amazon S3 bucket using S3 Standard storage. Users access videos frequently for the first 180 days, and rarely after that. Most videos are over 100 MB. Users often have poor internet connectivity, and the company uses multipart uploads. A solutions architect needs tooptimize S3 storage costs. Which combination of actions will meet these requirements? ((Choose two.)
Options
- AConfigure the S3 bucket to be a Requester Pays bucket.
- BUse S3 Transfer Acceleration to upload the videos.
- CCreate a lifecycle rule to expireincomplete multipart uploadsafter 7 days.
- DCreate a lifecycle rule to transition objects toS3 Glacier Instant Retrieval after 1 day.
- ECreate a lifecycle rule to transition objects toS3 Standard-IA after 180 days.

Why each option
These lifecycle rules optimize storage costs by automatically cleaning up incomplete multipart uploads and transitioning infrequently accessed objects to a lower-cost storage class after 180 days.
Configuring a Requester Pays bucket shifts access costs to users and does not optimize the company's own storage costs.
S3 Transfer Acceleration speeds up uploads but incurs additional costs, thereby not optimizing storage costs.
Creating a lifecycle rule to expire incomplete multipart uploads after 7 days prevents unnecessary storage costs from data fragments that are never completed or cleaned up.
Transitioning objects to S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval after only 1 day contradicts the requirement that videos are frequently accessed for the first 180 days, which would lead to prohibitive retrieval costs and early deletion fees.
Transitioning objects to S3 Standard-IA after 180 days directly aligns with the access pattern where videos become rarely accessed after that period, significantly reducing storage costs for older content.
