1Z0-1072-25 Question 224
Select 2Your team needs to store a growing analytics data set in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage. About 20% of this data will be accessed frequently, while the remaining 80% will likely only be accessed a few times a year for auditing and compliance. The team wants to reduce storage costs without losing the ability to retrieve archived data when necessary. Which two statements accurately describe how to manage data across the Standard and Archive tiers in this scenario?
- A
You can configure a lifecycle management policy to move objects from Standard tier to Archive tier automatically after a specified age.
- B
Archived objects become permanently locked in Archive tier and cannot be restored to Standard tier if needed.
- C
Objects stored in Archive tier can be immediately downloaded without any additional actions or delays.
- D
Restoring objects from the Archive tier requires a retrieval process, which takes some time before you can access the files.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, D
Explanation
In Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, the Standard tier is intended for frequently accessed data, while the Archive tier is designed for data that is rarely accessed, offering lower storage costs. Lifecycle management policies automate the movement of objects between tiers based on age or other criteria. When data is stored in the Archive tier, it must be restored before it can be used, which introduces a delay. For detailed guidance on configuring lifecycle policies and retrieving archived objects, refer to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage documentation.
- A. Correct.
Option 1 is correct. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure allows you to set lifecycle rules that automatically transition objects from Standard to Archive, thereby reducing costs for data that is not frequently accessed. This helps manage the storage lifecycle effectively.
- B. Incorrect.
Option 2 is incorrect. You can restore archived objects back to the Standard tier. Archived objects are not locked permanently. A restore request is required, after which the data becomes available again in Standard tier for a limited time window.
- C. Incorrect.
Option 3 is incorrect. You cannot download archived objects right away. There is a restore process that must be initiated. Once data is restored to the Standard tier, it becomes available for download.
- D. Correct.
Option 4 is correct. Retrieval from the Archive tier involves a restore operation, which can take some time (for example, several hours) depending on your restore request before the data is accessible.
