1Z0-1072-25 Question 237
Select 3You manage an Object Storage bucket in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure that holds critical financial reports. The company's compliance policy requires the following: (1) All updates must create a new version of the object; (2) Older versions must be moved to Archive Storage 30 days after they become non-current; and (3) Older versions must not be deleted or modified for at least 90 days. Which three actions should you configure to meet these requirements?
- A
Enable versioning on the bucket.
- B
Create a life cycle policy with an 'Archive' action for previous object versions after 30 days.
- C
Configure a retention rule with a minimum retention period of 90 days to prevent deletion or modification of older versions.
- D
Enable pre-authenticated requests (PARs) for the bucket so older versions cannot be accessed without authorization.
- E
Enable Cross-Region Replication to automatically copy older versions to another region for archival.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, C
Explanation
To meet compliance needs for version retention, you must enable bucket versioning so that each change creates a new version. Then, you configure a life cycle policy to move older versions to Archive Storage after 30 days. Finally, you apply a retention rule preventing deletion or modification for 90 days. Refer to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure documentation on 'Object Storage Versioning,' 'Lifecycle Rules for Object Storage,' and 'Retention Rules' for step-by-step guidance on these features.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Enabling versioning on the bucket is required so that each update to an object creates a new version rather than overwriting the existing one. This is fundamental for later applying life cycle and retention rules on older versions.
- B. Correct.
Correct. A life cycle policy with an 'Archive' action will automatically move older (non-current) object versions to Archive Storage after 30 days. This setup helps reduce costs by archiving data that isn�t accessed frequently.
- C. Correct.
Correct. A retention rule with a minimum retention period of 90 days ensures that no one can delete or modify object versions for at least that duration. This rule satisfies the compliance requirement of preserving older versions.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. While pre-authenticated requests (PARs) can restrict access, they do not enforce storage tier changes or data retention. PARs are used to grant time-limited public access, not to uphold a regulatory hold.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Cross-Region Replication copies data to another region for redundancy and availability but does not manage how or when objects are archived, nor does it enforce a retention period on versions.
