Your organization is planning to build a BigData project on AWS. They need high data transfer rates for huge workloads to stream through with better performance.They are also looking for a cost-effective solution. Which EBS storage type would you choose in this scenario?

Answer options:

A.General Purpose SSD
B.Provisioned IOPS SSD
C.Throughput Optimized HDD
D.Cold HDD

Answer: C
Amazon EBS provides the following volume types, which differ in performance characteristics and price, so that you can tailor your storage performance and cost to the needs of your applications. The volumes types fall into two categories:
SSD-backed volumes optimized for transactional workloads involving frequent read/write operations with small I/O size, where the dominant performance attribute is IOPS.
HDD-backed volumes optimized for large streaming workloads where throughput (measured in MiB/s) is a better performance measure than IOPS.
