A development team has decided to implement an efficient logging system and use AWS S3 as storage to manage large volumes of logs in a scalable way.
The team followed these steps:
* Set the WORKSPACE_NAMESPACE variable to the namespace copied in the previous step.
* Created a config that overrode ConfigMap to update the storage configuration.
* Updated the grafana-loki AppDeployment to apply the configuration override.However the implementation failed.What should the team do to be able to manage log storage in AWS?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

As stated in the NKPA 6.10 documentation, when using external storage (such as AWS S3) with Loki for log storage, AWS credentials must be provided securely. This typically involves creating a Kubernetes Secret containing the static AWS credentials (access key ID and secret access key), which are referenced in the override ConfigMap to authenticate Loki's S3 storage backend.
Key reference from documentation:
"For Loki to store logs in an S3 bucket, AWS credentials must be created as a Kubernetes secret and referenced in the storage configuration." Reference:
