A company stores a large volume of image files in an Amazon S3 bucket. The images need to be readily available for the first 180 days. The images are infrequently accessed for the next 180 days. After 360 days, the images need to be archived but must be available instantly upon request. After 5 years, only auditors can access the images. The auditors must be able to retrieve the images within 12 hours. The images cannot be lost during this process. A developer will use S3 Standard storage for the first 180 days. The developer needs to configure an S3 Lifecycle rule. Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Selected Answer: C "The developer needs to configure an S3 Lifecycle rule."--->One Zone-IA can't transfer to Glacier Instant Retrieval--->A is out. Check - Unsupported lifecycle transitions https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/lifecycle-transition-general-considerations.html "Images cannot be lost = high availability"--->Can't be One Zone-IA--->B is out. "the images need to be archived but must be available instantly upon request"--->Can't be "Flexible" Retrieval--->D is out. Only C is the correct answer. upvoted 3 times
