A township ships encrypted drives of GIS archives to AWS because uploading over the available network would take months. Which AWS migration approach does that describe?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
When the upload clock says "months," you put the GIS pile on a truck — Snow Family style. Physical, secured devices move bulk data offline when the network cannot. VPC peering, password rotation, and CloudWatch alarms are useful tools, but they are not how you ship petabyte archives.
Full Explanation
AWS Snow Family provides ruggedized devices that customers load with data on premises and ship to AWS for import, which is appropriate when network transfers would take impractically long. That is a physical offline migration pattern for large GIS archives. VPC peering connects networks, IAM password rotation manages credentials, and CloudWatch alarms notify on metrics — none of those replace bulk physical data transfer for this scenario.
