A company’s infrastructure includes Amazon EC2 instances and an Amazon RDS DB instance in a single AWS Region. The company wants to back up data in a different Region with the least operational overhead. Which solution meets this requirement?

AWS Backup provides a centralized, automated backup service across AWS services, including EC2 instances and RDS databases. It supports cross-Region backup copies, directly addressing the requirement for backing up data to a different Region with minimal operational overhead. You can define backup plans to automatically create and copy backups. Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager (DLM) is primarily for automating the creation, retention, and deletion of EBS snapshots and AMIs, not RDS backups directly, and it doesn't natively handle cross-service backup orchestration like AWS Backup. Creating AMIs and RDS read replicas involves more manual steps and ongoing management than a unified backup service. Manually creating EBS snapshots, copying them, creating RDS snapshots, exporting them to S3, and then configuring S3 CRR is a multi-step, complex process with high operational overhead, making it less efficient than AWS Backup.
