Backup RDS using automated daily DB backups Backup the EC2 instances using AMIs and supplement
with file-level backup to S3 using traditional enterprise backup software to provide file level restore
B.
Backup RDS using a Multi-AZ Deployment Backup the EC2 instances using Amis, and supplement by
copying file system data to S3 to provide file level restore.
C.
Backup RDS using automated daily DB backups Backup the EC2 instances using EBS snapshots and
supplement with file-level backups to Amazon Glacier using traditional enterprise backup software to
provide file level restore
