SAA-C03 Practice Test

B.   Enable versioning on the bucket.

D.   Enable MFA Delete on the bucket.

Explanation: Versioning is a feature of Amazon S3 that allows users to keep multiple versions of the same object in a bucket. It can help prevent accidental deletion of the documents and ensure that all versions of the documents are available1. MFA Delete is a feature of Amazon S3 that adds an extra layer of security by requiring two forms of authentication to delete a version or change the versioning state of a bucket. It can help prevent unauthorized or accidental deletion of the documents2. By enabling both versioning and MFA Delete on the bucket, the solution can meet the requirements.

Enable a read-only bucket ACL. This solution will not meet the requirement of allowing users to download, modify, and upload documents, as a read-only bucket ACL will prevent write access to the bucket3.

C. Attach an IAM policy to the bucket. This solution will not meet the requirement of preventing accidental deletion of the documents and ensuring that all versions of the documents are available, as an IAM policy is used to grant or deny permissions to users or roles, not to enable versioning or MFA Delete4.

E. Encrypt the bucket using AWS KMS. This solution will not meet the requirement of preventing accidental deletion of the documents and ensuring that all versions of the documents are available, as encrypting the bucket using AWS KMS is a method of protecting data at rest, not enabling versioning or MFA Delete.

D.   Use the ChangeMessageVisibility APi call to increase the visibility timeout

Explanation: The visibility timeout begins when Amazon SQS returns a message. During this time, the consumer processes and deletes the message. However, if the consumer fails before deleting the message and your system doesn't call the DeleteMessage action for that message before the visibility timeout expires, the message becomes visible to other consumers and the message is received again. If a message must be received only once, your consumer should delete it within the duration of the visibility timeout.
Keyword: SQS queue writes to an Amazon RDS From this, Option D best suite & other Options ruled out [Option A - You can't intruduce one more Queue in the existing one; Option B - only Permission & Option C - Only Retrieves Messages] FIF O queues are designed to never introduce duplicate messages. However, your message producer might introduce duplicates in certain scenarios: for example, if the producer sends a message, does not receive a response, and then resends the same message. Amazon SQS APIs provide deduplication functionality that prevents your message producer from sending duplicates. Any duplicates introduced by the message producer are removed within a 5-minute deduplication interval. For standard queues, you might occasionally receive a duplicate copy of a message (at-least- once delivery). If you use a standard queue, you must design your applications to be idempotent (that is, they must not be affected adversely when processing the same message more than once).

A.   Deploy compute optimized EC2 instances into a cluster placement group.

E.   Attach the EC2 instances to an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file system.

Explanation: A cluster placement group is a logical grouping of EC2 instances within a single Availability Zone that are placed close together to minimize network latency. This is suitable for latency-sensitive HPC workloads that require high network performance. A compute optimized EC2 instance is an instance type that has a high ratio of vCPUs to memory, which is ideal for compute-intensive applications. Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP is a fully managed service that provides NFS and SMB multi-protocol access from the file system, as well as features such as data deduplication, compression, thin provisioning, and snapshots. This solution will meet the requirements with the least latency, as it leverages the low-latency network and storage performance of AWS.

A.   Add the aws:PrincipalOrgID global condition key with a reference to the organization ID to the S3 bucket policy.

D.   Group members are allowed the ec2:Stoplnstances and ec2:Terminatelnstances permissions for the us-east-1 Region only when logged in with multi-factor authentication (MFA). Group members are permitted any other Amazon EC2 action within the us-east-1 Region.

Explanation: This answer is correct because it reflects the effect of the IAM policy on the group members. The policy has two statements: one with an Allow effect and one with a Deny effect. The Allow statement grants permission to perform any EC2 action on any resource within the us-east-1 Region. The Deny statement overrides the Allow statement and denies permission to perform the ec2:StopInstances and ec2:TerminateInstances actions on any resource within the us-east-1 Region, unless the group member is logged in with MFA. Therefore, the group members can perform any EC2 action except stopping or terminating instances in the us-east-1 Region, unless they use MFA.
