A company runs an application on Amazon EC2 instances. The company needs to implement a disaster recovery (DR) solution for the application. The DR solution needs to have a recovery time objective (RTO) of less than 4 hours. The DR solution also needs to use the fewest possible AWS resources during normal operations.

Which solution will meet these requirements in the MOST operationally efficient way?

A.
Create Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) to back up the EC2 instances. Copy the AMIs to a secondary AWS Region. Automate infrastructure deployment in the secondary Region by using AWS Lambda and custom scripts.

Answers
D.
Launch EC2 instances in a secondary Availability Zone. Keep the EC2 instances in the secondary Availability Zone active at all times.
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

it allows the company to implement a disaster recovery (DR) solution for the application that has a recovery time objective (RTO) of less than 4 hours and uses the fewest possible AWS resources during normal operations. By creating Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) to back up the EC2 instances and copying the AMIs to a secondary AWS Region, the company can create point-in-time snapshots of the application and store them in a different geographical location. By automating infrastructure deployment in the secondary Region by using AWS CloudFormation, the company can quickly launch a stack of resources from a template in case of a disaster. This is a cost-effective and operationally efficient way to implement a DR solution for EC2 instances. Reference:
