Question 270
For the enterprise requirement "External trading partners depend on SFTP interfaces, but the receiving application will store files in S3", the team implemented this change: Use AWS Transfer Family with a supported SFTP endpoint and appropriate identity and S3 permissions. Which evidence confirms the intended behavior under test?
Explanation
Correct Answer
This measures the behavior required by the specific solution, rather than simply checking that it was configured. AWS Transfer Family exposes managed file-transfer protocols to supported AWS storage. The acceptance condition is linked directly to the scenario: External trading partners depend on SFTP interfaces, but the receiving application will store files in S3.
Incorrect Answers
Eligible file changes are transferred and verified by a scheduled DataSync task. However, this does not establish the required outcome: partners connect over SFTP and transferred objects appear in assigned bucket prefixes.
Replicated servers boot in AWS test VPCs with verified application functionality before cutover. However, this does not establish the required outcome: partners connect over SFTP and transferred objects appear in assigned bucket prefixes.
Vendor-certified testing proves that the appliance runs on the selected target or requires retain/replace decision. However, this does not establish the required outcome: partners connect over SFTP and transferred objects appear in assigned bucket prefixes.
