DOP-C02 practice question 18 of 35

A DevOps engineer needs to back up sensitive Amazon S3 objects that are stored within an S3 bucket with a private bucket policy using S3 cross-Region replication functionality.

Explanation

S3 cross-Region replication (CRR) automatically replicates data between buckets across different AWS Regions. To enable CRR, you need to add a replication configuration to your source bucket that specifies the destination bucket, the IAM role, and the encryption type (optional). You also need to grant permissions to the IAM role to perform replication actions on both the source and destination buckets. Additionally, you can choose the destination storage class and enable additional replication options such as S3 Replication Time Control (S3 RTC) or S3 Batch Replication. https://medium.com/cloud-techies/s3-same-region-replication-srr-and-cross-region-replication-crr34d446806bab https://aws.amazon.com/getting-started/hands-on/replicate-data-using-amazon-s3- replication/ https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/replication.html
