A company wants to run a static website served through Amazon CloudFront.What is an advantage of storing the website content in an S3 bucket instead of an EBS volume?

• A. S3 buckets are replicated globally, allowing for large scalability. EBS volumes are replicated only within a region.

• B. S3 is an origin for CloudFront. EBS volumes would need EC2 instances behind an Elastic Load Balancing load balancer to be an origin.

• C. S3 buckets can be encrypted, allowing for secure storage of the web files. EBS volumes cannot be encrypted.

• D. S3 buckets support object-level read throttling, preventing abuse. EBS volumes do not provide object-level throttling.
