A company has a single Amazon EC2 instance with an attached EBS volume that is not part of an AWS Backup plan. The company needs to create a one-time backup before a major application upgrade and retain it for 90 days. What is the most efficient way to accomplish this?

Create a manual snapshot of the EBS volume using the AWS Management Console or AWS CLI.

Enable termination protection on the instance to prevent accidental deletion during the upgrade.

Copy the EBS volume to an Amazon S3 bucket using the AWS CLI.

Create an AWS Backup plan with a one-time schedule and 90-day retention.

A company stores critical documents in an Amazon S3 bucket with versioning enabled. An employee accidentally deleted an object, and the company needs to recover it. What is the most efficient way to recover the deleted object?

Enable versioning on the bucket and then restore the object.

Contact AWS Support to recover the deleted object from the underlying storage.

Use the S3 console to view the versions of the object and restore the latest version.

Use the AWS CLI to copy the object from the bucket's recycle bin.
