Question 1

A finance company wants to generate a daily report on their S3 buckets, listing all objects and their corresponding metadata along with access controls. What S3 feature should be used?

Correct Answer: S3 Inventory

S3 Inventory provides reports on the objects within an S3 bucket, including metadata, access control list (ACL) and encryption status. Other options, like S3 Lifecycle or S3 Cross-Region Replication, are not meant for daily reporting.

Question 2

A company stored CSV files in an S3 bucket and has an application that needs to query specific columns on demand. Which S3 feature should be used?

Correct Answer: Amazon S3 Select

Amazon S3 Select enables applications to retrieve only a specific set of columns from an object in an S3 bucket. Amazon S3 Inventory, Analytics, Transfer Acceleration, Lifecycle, and Replication do not provide the ability to query specific data within an object.

Question 3

A retail company needs to generate a weekly report on their S3 objects containing specific prefixes. The report should include object versions and deletion markers. Which S3 feature should be used?

Correct Answer: S3 Inventory

S3 Inventory can create a weekly report that includes both object versions and deletion markers for objects with specific prefixes. Other options like S3 Object Access Logs, S3 Lifecycle Policies, S3 Access Analyzer, CloudTrail Logs, and S3 Event Notifications do not provide the required functionality.
