Large binary objects are usually more cost-effective inAmazon S3than in a relational database. AWS S3 documentation describes S3 as highly durable object storage, and AWS storage guidance commonly uses a database to holdmetadatawhile S3 stores the objects themselves. Moving the documents out of the Oracle database reduces expensive database storage growth and can improve database performance by shrinking the amount of blob data managed inside the DB engine. The existing database can continue to store metadata and relational records, preserving application structure while improving cost efficiency and resilience. The other options either increase database cost further or shift to a much bigger redesign than needed.

============

The requirements emphasize high availability across multiple Availability Zones, automatic recovery, and least operational overhead. The simplest way to achieve this for containerized microservices is to use a fully managed container orchestration service with serverless compute. Amazon ECS with the Fargate launch type provides exactly that.

With ECS Fargate, AWS manages the underlying compute infrastructure (no EC2 instances to provision, patch, scale, or secure at the OS level). You define task definitions and services, and ECS schedules tasks across Availability Zones based on your networking configuration (multiple subnets in different AZs). If a container fails, ECS service scheduling automatically replaces it, fulfilling the “recover from failures” requirement. Fargate also integrates with load balancing, CloudWatch logging, and scaling policies, reducing the operational burden of keeping the platform healthy.

Option A (ECS on EC2) is still managed orchestration, but it requires managing the EC2 capacity layer: AMI updates, instance patching, cluster capacity planning, and instance scaling. Option B (EKS with self-managed nodes) typically carries even more operational responsibility because you manage node groups, upgrades, and Kubernetes operational complexity in addition to the underlying instances. Option D is the highest operational overhead because it lacks managed scheduling and self-healing; you would need to build and maintain your own process manager and failover mechanisms.

Therefore, C is the best answer because it provides a managed, multi-AZ capable, self-healing container platform with minimal infrastructure management—matching the operational efficiency goal while maintaining high availability.
