What would you recommend?

You are the new IT architect in a company that operates a mobile sleep tracking application.
When activated at night, the mobile app is sending collected data points of 1 kilobyte every 5 minutes to your
backend.
The backend takes care of authenticating the user and writing the data points into an Amazon DynamoDB
table.
Every morning, you scan the table to extract and aggregate last night’s data on a per user basis, and store the
results in Amazon S3. Users are notified via Amazon SNS mobile push notifications that new data is available,
which is parsed and visualized by the mobile app.
Currently you have around 100k users who are mostly based out of North America.
You have been tasked to optimize the architecture of the backend system to lower cost.

C & D. You want to optimize both Reads and Writes. C optimizes Writes, D optimizes Reads

You want to lower costs, taking the load off DynamoDB will do this.
