A rural courthouse has petabytes of case scans and poor WAN bandwidth for uploading to AWS. Which migration approach is most appropriate?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
When the pipe is a garden hose and the pile is a mountain of scans, you ship the mountain. AWS Snow Family devices are built for large offline transfers when the network cannot keep up. A random USB stick, retyping petabytes, or freezing forever are not serious migration plans.
Full Explanation
AWS Snow Family devices support physically moving large datasets to AWS when network bandwidth is insufficient or transfers would take impractically long. That pattern is a recognized migration and data-transfer strategy for constrained sites such as a rural courthouse with petabyte-scale archives. Ad hoc consumer media without a controlled process, manual re-entry, or indefinite postponement are not appropriate alternatives for that scale.
