Topic 4: Exam Pool D

A company runs demonstration environments for its customers on Amazon EC2 instances. Each environment is isolated in its own VPThe company’s operations team needs to be notified when RDP or SSH access to an environment has been established.


A. Configure Amazon CloudWatch Application Insights to create AWS Systems Manager OpsItems when RDP or SSH access is detected.


B. Configure the EC2 instances with an IAM instance profile that has an IAM role with the AmazonSSMManagedInstanceCore policy attached.


C. Publish VPC flow logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Create required metric filters. Create an Amazon CloudWatch metric alarm with a notification action for when the alarm is in the ALARM state.


D. Configure an Amazon EventBridge rule to listen for events of type EC2 Instance State- change Notification. Configure an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic as a target. Subscribe the operations team to the topic.





C.
  Publish VPC flow logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Create required metric filters. Create an Amazon CloudWatch metric alarm with a notification action for when the alarm is in the ALARM state.

A company stores data in PDF format in an Amazon S3 bucket The company must follow a legal requirement to retain all new and existing data in Amazon S3 for 7 years. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?


A. Turn on the S3 Versionmg feature for the S3 bucket Configure S3 Lifecycle to delete the data after 7 years. Configure multi-factor authentication (MFA) delete for all S3 objects.


B. Turn on S3 Object Lock with governance retention mode for the S3 bucket Set the retention period to expire after 7 years. Recopy all existing objects to bring the existing data into compliance


C. Turn on S3 Object Lock with compliance retention mode for the S3 bucket. Set the retention period to expire after 7 years. Recopy all existing objects to bring the existing data into compliance


D. Turn on S3 Object Lock with compliance retention mode for the S3 bucket. Set the retention period to expire after 7 years. Use S3 Batch Operations to bring the existing data into compliance





C.
  Turn on S3 Object Lock with compliance retention mode for the S3 bucket. Set the retention period to expire after 7 years. Recopy all existing objects to bring the existing data into compliance

Explanation: S3 Object Lock enables a write-once-read-many (WORM) model for objects stored in Amazon S3. It can help prevent objects from being deleted or overwritten for a fixed amount of time or indefinitely1. S3 Object Lock has two retention modes: governance mode and compliance mode. Compliance mode provides the highest level of protection and prevents any user, including the root user, from deleting or modifying an object version until the retention period expires. To use S3 Object Lock, a new bucket with Object Lock enabled must be created, and a default retention period can be optionally configured for objects placed in the bucket2. To bring existing objects into compliance, they must be recopied into the bucket with a retention period specified. Option A is incorrect because S3 Versioning and S3 Lifecycle do not provide WORM protection for objects. Moreover, MFA delete only applies to deleting object versions, not modifying them. Option B is incorrect because governance mode allows users with special permissions to override or remove the retention settings or delete the object if necessary. This does not meet the legal requirement of retaining all data for 7 years. Option D is incorrect because S3 Batch Operations cannot be used to apply compliance mode retention periods to existing objects. S3 Batch Operations can only apply governance mode retention periods or legal holds.

A company hosts a website on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) The website serves static content Website traffic is increasing and the company is concerned about a potential increase in cost. What should a solutions architect do to reduce the cost of the website?


A. Create an Amazon CloudFront distribution to cache static files at edge locations.


B. Create an Amazon ElastiCache cluster Connect the ALB to the ElastiCache cluster to serve cached files.


C. Create an AWS WAF web ACL and associate it with the ALB. Add a rule to the web ACL to cache static files.


D. Create a second ALB in an alternative AWS Region Route user traffic to the closest Region to minimize data transfer costs





A.
  Create an Amazon CloudFront distribution to cache static files at edge locations.

Explanation: Amazon CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN) that can improve the performance and reduce the cost of serving static content from a website. CloudFront can cache static files at edge locations closer to the users, reducing the latency and data transfer costs. CloudFront can also integrate with Amazon S3 as the origin for the static content, eliminating the need for EC2 instances to host the website. CloudFront meets all the requirements of the question, while the other options do not.

A company’s reporting system delivers hundreds of .csv files to an Amazon S3 bucket each day. The company must convert these files to Apache Parquet format and must store the files in a transformed data bucket. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST development effort?


A. Create an Amazon EMR cluster with Apache Spark installed. Write a Spark application to transform the data. Use EMR File System (EMRFS) to write files to the transformed data bucket.


B. Create an AWS Glue crawler to discover the data. Create an AWS Glue extract, transform, and load (ETL) job to transform the data. Specify the transformed data bucket in the output step.


C. Use AWS Batch to create a job definition with Bash syntax to transform the data and output the data to the transformed data bucket. Use the job definition to submit a job. Specify an array job as the job type.


D. Create an AWS Lambda function to transform the data and output the data to the transformed data bucket. Configure an event notification for the S3 bucket. Specify the Lambda function as the destination for the event notification.





B.
  Create an AWS Glue crawler to discover the data. Create an AWS Glue extract, transform, and load (ETL) job to transform the data. Specify the transformed data bucket in the output step.

A solutions architect is designing a new API using Amazon API Gateway that will receive requests from users. The volume of requests is highly variable; several hours can pass without receiving a single request. The data processing will take place asynchronously, but should be completed within a few seconds after a request is made. Which compute service should the solutions architect have the API invoke to deliver the requirements at the lowest cost?


A. An AWS Glue job


B. An AWS Lambda function


C. A containerized service hosted in Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS)


D. A containerized service hosted in Amazon ECS with Amazon EC2





B.
  An AWS Lambda function
