Questions # 92:

A software as a service (SaaS) company uses AWS to host a service that is powered by AWS PrivateLink. The service consists of proprietary software that runs on three Amazon EC2 instances behind a Network Load Balancer (NL B). The instances are in private subnets in multiple Availability Zones in the eu-west-2 Region. All the company's customers are in eu-west-2.

However, the company now acquires a new customer in the us-east-I Region. The company creates a new VPC and new subnets in us-east-I. The company establishes

inter-Region VPC peering between the VPCs in the two Regions.

The company wants to give the new customer access to the SaaS service, but the company does not want to immediately deploy new EC2 resources in us-east-I

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

Configure a PrivateLink endpoint service in us-east-I to use the existing NL B that is in eu-west-2. Grant specific AWS accounts access to connect to theSaaS service.

Create an NL B in us-east-I . Create an IP target group that uses the IP addresses of the company's instances in eu-west-2 that host the SaaS service.Configure a PrivateLink endpoint service that uses the NLB that is in us-east-I . Grant specific AWS accounts access to connect to the SaaS service.

Create an Application Load Balancer (ALB) in front of the EC2 instances in eu-west-2. Create an NLB in us-east-I . Associate the NLB that is in us-east-Iwith an ALB target group that uses the ALB that is in eu-west-2. Configure a PrivateLink endpoint service that uses the NLB that is in us-east-I . Grantspecific AWS accounts access to connect to the SaaS service.

Use AWS Resource Access Manager (AWS RAM) to share the EC2 instances that are in eu-west-2. In us-east-I , create an NLB and an instance targetgroup that includes the shared EC2 instances from eu-west-2. Configure a PrivateLink endpoint service that uses the NL B that is in us-east-I. Grant specific AWS accounts access to connect to the SaaS service.

Questions # 93:

An online magazine will launch its latest edition this month. This edition will be the first to be distributed globally. The magazine's dynamic website currently uses an Application Load Balancer in front of the web tier, a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances for web and application servers, and Amazon Aurora MySQL. Portions of the website include static content and almost all traffic is read-only.

The magazine is expecting a significant spike in internet traffic when the new edition is launched. Optimal performance is a top priority for the week following the launch.

Which combination of steps should a solutions architect take to reduce system response times for a global audience? (Choose two.)

Options:

Use logical cross-Region replication to replicate the Aurora MySQL database to a secondary Region. Replace the web servers with Amazon S3. Deploy S3 buckets in cross-Region replication mode.

Ensure the web and application tiers are each in Auto Scaling groups. Introduce an AWS Direct Connect connection. Deploy the web and application tiers in Regions across the world.

Migrate the database from Amazon Aurora to Amazon RDS for MySQL. Ensure all three of the application tiersג€" web, application, and databaseג€" are in private subnets.

Questions # 95:

A company stores a static website on Amazon S3. AWS Lambda functions retrieve content from an S3 bucket and serve the content as a website. An Application Load Balancer (ALB) directs incoming traffic to the Lambda functions. An Amazon CloudFront distribution routes requests to the ALB.

The company has set up an AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) certificate on the HTTPS listener of the ALB. The company needs all users to communicate with the website through HTTPS. HTTP users must not receive an error.

Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Select THREE.)

Options:

Configure the ALB with a TCP listener on port 443 for passthrough to backend systems.

Create an S3 bucket policy that denies access to the S3 bucket if the aws:SecureTransport request is false.

Configure HTTP to HTTPS redirection on the S3 bucket.

Set the origin protocol policy to HTTPS Only for CloudFront.

Set the viewer protocol policy to HTTPS Only for CloudFront.

Set the viewer protocol policy to Redirect HTTP to HTTPS for CloudFront.

Questions # 96:

A company has an application that runs on Amazon EC2 instances in an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group. The company uses AWS CodePipeline to deploy the application. The instances that run in the Auto Scaling group are constantly changing because of scaling events.

When the company deploys new application code versions, the company installs the AWS CodeDeploy agent on any new target EC2 instances and associates the instances with the CodeDeploy deployment group. The application is set to go live within the next 24 hours.

What should a solutions architect recommend to automate the application deployment process with the LEAST amount of operational overhead?

Options:

Configure Amazon EventBridge to invoke an AWS Lambda function when a new EC2 instance is launched into the Auto Scaling group. Code the Lambda function to associate the EC2 instances with the CodeDeploy deployment group.

Write a script to suspend Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling operations before the deployment of new code When the deployment is complete, create a new AMI and configure the Auto Scaling group's launch template to use the new AMI for new launches. Resume Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling operations.

Create a new AWS CodeBuild project that creates a new AMI that contains the new code Configure CodeBuild to update the Auto Scaling group's launch template to the new AMI. Run an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling instance refresh operation.

Create a new AMI that has the CodeDeploy agent installed. Configure the Auto Scaling group's launch template to use the new AMI. Associate the CodeDeploy deployment group with the Auto Scaling group instead of the EC2 instances.

Questions # 97:

A financial services company runs a complex, multi-tier application on Amazon EC2 instances and AWS Lambda functions. The application stores temporary data in Amazon S3. The S3 objects are valid for only 45 minutes and are deleted after 24 hours.

The company deploys each version of the application by launching an AWS CloudFormation stack. The stack creates all resources that are required to run the application. When the company deploys and validates a new application version, the company deletes the CloudFormation stack of the old version.

The company recently tried to delete the CloudFormation stack of an old application version, but the operation failed. An analysis shows that CloudFormation failed to delete an existing S3 bucket. A solutions architect needs to resolve this issue without making major changes to the application's architecture.

Which solution meets these requirements?

Options:

Implement a Lambda function that deletes all files from a given S3 bucket. Integrate this Lambda function as a custom resource into the CloudFormation stack. Ensure that the custom resource has a DependsOn attribute that points to the S3 bucket's resource.

Modify the CloudFormation template to provision an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system to store the temporary files there instead of in Amazon S3. Configure the Lambda functions to run in the same VPC as the file system. Mount the file system to the EC2 instances and Lambda functions.

Modify the CloudFormation stack to create an S3 Lifecycle rule that expires all objects 45 minutes after creation. Add a DependsOn attribute that points to the S3 bucket's resource.

Modify the CloudFormation stack to attach a DeletionPolicy attribute with a value of Delete to the S3 bucket.

Questions # 98:

A company uses AWS Organizations for a multi-account setup in the AWS Cloud. The company uses AWS Control Tower for governance and uses AWS Transit Gateway for VPC connectivityacross accounts.

In an AWS application account, the company's application team has deployed a web application that uses AWS Lambda and Amazon RDS. The company's database administrators have a separate DBA account and use the account to centrally manage all the databases across the organization. The database administrators use an Amazon EC2 instance that is deployed in the DBA account to access an RDS database that is deployed in the application account.

The application team has stored the database credentials as secrets in AWS Secrets Manager in the application account. The application team is manually sharing the secrets with the database administrators. The secrets are encrypted by the default AWS managed key for Secrets Manager in the application account. A solutions architect needs to implement a solution that gives the database administrators access to the database and eliminates the need to manually share the secrets.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

Use AWS Resource Access Manager (AWS RAM) to share the secrets from the application account with the DBA account. In the DBA account, create an IAM role that is named DBA-Admin. Grant the role the required permissions to access the shared secrets. Attach the DBA-Admin role to the EC2 instance for access to the cross-account secrets.

In the application account, create an IAM role that is named DBA-Secret. Grant the role the required permissions to access the secrets. In the DBA account, create an IAM role that is named DBA-Admin. Grant the DBA-Admin role the required permissions to assume the DBA-Secret role in the application account. Attach the DBA-Admin role to the EC2 instance for access to the cross-account secrets.

In the DBA account, create an IAM role that is named DBA-Admin. Grant the role the required permissions to access the secrets and the default AWS managed key in the application account. In the application account, attach resource-based policies to the key to allow access from the DBA account. Attach the DBA-Admin role to the EC2 instance for access to the cross-account secrets.

In the DBA account, create an IAM role that is named DBA-Admin. Grant the role the required permissions to access the secrets in the application account. Attach an SCP to the application account to allow access to the secrets from the DBA account. Attach the DBA-Admin role to the EC2 instance for access to the cross-account secrets.

Questions # 99:

A company is expanding. The company plans to separate its resources into hundreds of different AWS accounts in multiple AWS Regions. A solutions architect must recommend a solution that denies access to any operations outside of specifically designated Regions.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

Create IAM roles for each account. Create IAM policies with conditional allow permissions that include only approved Regions for the accounts.

Create an organization in AWS Organizations. Create IAM users for each account. Attach a policy to each user to block access to Regions where an account cannot deploy infrastructure.

Launch an AWS Control Tower landing zone. Create OUs and attach SCPs that deny access to run services outside of the approved Regions.

Enable AWS Security Hub in each account. Create controls to specify the Regions where an account can deploy infrastructure.

Questions # 100:

A company is deploying a new API to AWS. The API uses Amazon API Gateway with a Regional API endpoint and an AWS Lambda function for hosting. The API retrieves data from an external vendor API, stores data in an Amazon DynamoDB global table, and retrieves data from the DynamoDB global table. The API key for the vendor's API is stored in AWS Secrets Manager and is encrypted with a customer managed key in AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS). The company has deployed its own API into a single AWS Region.

A solutions architect needs to change the API components of the company's API to ensure that the components can run across multiple Regions in an active-active configuration.

Which combination of changes will meet this requirement with the LEAST operational overhead? (Choose three.)

Options:

Deploy the API to multiple Regions. Configure Amazon Route 53 with custom domain names that route traffic to each Regional API endpoint. Implement a Route 53 multivalue answer routing policy.

Create a new KMS multi-Region customer managed key. Create a new KMS customer managed replica key in each in-scope Region.

Replicate the existing Secrets Manager secret to other Regions. For each in-scope Region's replicated secret, select the appropriate KMS key.

Create a new AWS managed KMS key in each in-scope Region. Convert an existing key to a multi-Region key. Use the multi-Region key in other Regions.

Create a new Secrets Manager secret in each in-scope Region. Copy the secret value from the existing Region to the new secret in each in-scope Region.

Modify the deployment process for the Lambda function to repeat the deployment across in-scope Regions. Turn on the multi-Region option for the existing API. Select the Lambda function that is deployed in each Region as the backend for the multi-Region API.

Answer

A, B, C

Explanation

The combination of changes that will meet the requirement with the least operational overhead are:

A. Deploy the API to multiple Regions. Configure Amazon Route 53 with custom domain names that route traffic to each Regional API endpoint.Implement a Route 53 multivalue answer routing policy.

B. Create a new KMS multi-Region customer managed key. Create a new KMS customer managed replica key in each in-scope Region.

C. Replicate the existing Secrets Manager secret to other Regions. For each in-scope Region’s replicated secret, select the appropriate KMS key.

These changes will enable the company to have an active-active configuration for its API across multiple Regions, while minimizing the complexity and cost of managing the secrets and keys.

A. This change will allow the company to use Route 53 to distribute traffic across multiple Regional API endpoints, based on the availability and latency of each endpoint.This will improve the performance and availability of the API for global customers12

B. This change will allow the company to use KMS multi-Region keys, which are KMS keys in different Regions that can be used interchangeably.This will simplify the encryption and decryption of secrets across Regions, as the same key material and key ID can be used in any Region34

C. This change will allow the company to use Secrets Manager replication, which replicates the encrypted secret data and metadata across the specified Regions.This will ensure that the secrets are consistent and accessible in any Region, andthat any update made to the primary secret will be propagated to the replica secrets automatically56

Questions # 102:

A company has migrated an application from on premises to AWS. The application frontend is a static website that runs on two Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The application backend is a Python application that runs on three EC2 instances behind another ALB. The EC2 instances are large, general purpose On-Demand Instances that were sized to meet the on-premises specifications for peak usage of the application.

The application averages hundreds of thousands of requests each month. However, the application is used mainly during lunchtime and receives minimal traffic during the rest of the day.

A solutions architect needs to optimize the infrastructure cost of the application without negatively affecting the application availability.

Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

Options:

Change all the EC2 instances to compute optimized instances that have the same number of cores as the existing EC2 instances.

Move the application frontend to a static website that is hosted on Amazon S3.

Deploy the application frontend by using AWS Elastic Beanstalk. Use the same instance type for the nodes.

Change all the backend EC2 instances to Spot Instances.

Deploy the backend Python application to general purpose burstable EC2 instances that have the same number of cores as the existing EC2 instances.

Questions # 103:

A company has a new application that needs to run on five Amazon EC2 instances in a single AWS Region. The application requires high-through put. low-latency network connections between all to the EC2 instances where the application will run. There is no requirement for the application to be fault tolerant.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

Launch five new EC2 instances into a cluster placement group. Ensure that the EC2instance type supports enhanced networking.

Launch five new EC2 instances into an Auto Scaling group in the same Availability Zone. Attach an extra elastic network interface to each EC2 instance.

Launch five new EC2 instances into a partition placement group. Ensure that the EC2 instance type supports enhanced networking.

Launch five new EC2 instances into a spread placement group Attach an extra elastic network interface to each EC2 instance.

Questions # 104:

A company that uses AWS Organizations allows developers to experiment on AWS. As part of the landing zone that the company has deployed, developers use their company email address to request an account. The company wants to ensure that developers are not launching costly services or running services unnecessarily. The company must give developers a fixed monthly budget to limit their AWS costs.

Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Choose three.)

Options:

Create an SCP to set a fixed monthly account usage limit. Apply the SCP to the developer accounts.

Use AWS Budgets to create a fixed monthly budget for each developer's account as part of the account creation process.

Create an SCP to deny access to costly services and components. Apply the SCP to the developer accounts.

Create an IAM policy to deny access to costly services and components. Apply the IAM policy to the developer accounts.

Create an AWS Budgets alert action to terminate services when the budgeted amount is reached. Configure the action to terminate all services.

Create an AWS Budgets alert action to send an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification when the budgeted amount is reached. Invoke an AWS Lambda function to terminate all services.

Answer

B, C, F

Explanation

Option A is incorrect because creating an SCP to set a fixed monthly account usage limit is not possible. SCPs are policies that specify the services and actions that users and roles can use in the member accounts of an AWS Organization. SCPscannot enforce budget limits or prevent users from launching costly services or running services unnecessarily1

Option B is correct because using AWS Budgets to create a fixed monthly budget for each developer’s account as part of the account creation process meets the requirement of giving developers a fixed monthly budget to limit their AWS costs. AWS Budgets allows you to plan your service usage, service costs, and instance reservations. You can create budgets that alert you when your costs or usage exceed (or are forecasted to exceed) your budgeted amount2

Option C is correct because creating an SCP to deny access to costly services and components meets the requirement of ensuring that developers are not launching costly services or running services unnecessarily. SCPs can restrict access to certain AWS services or actions based on conditions such as region, resource tags, or request time. For example, an SCP can deny access to Amazon Redshift clusters or Amazon EC2 instances with certain instance types1

Option D is incorrect because creating an IAM policy to deny access to costly services and components is not sufficient to meet the requirement of ensuring that developers are not launching costly services or running services unnecessarily. IAM policies can only control access to resources within a single AWS account. If developers have multiple accounts or can create new accounts, they can bypass the IAMpolicy restrictions. SCPs can apply across multiple accounts within an AWS Organization and prevent users from creating new accounts that do not comply with the SCP rules3

Option E is incorrect because creating an AWS Budgets alert action to terminate services when the budgeted amount is reached is not possible. AWS Budgets alert actions can only perform one of the following actions: apply an IAM policy, apply an SCP, or send a notification through Amazon SNS.AWS Budgets alert actions cannot terminate services directly.

Option F is correct because creating an AWS Budgets alert action to send an Amazon SNS notification when the budgeted amount is reached and invoking an AWS Lambda function to terminate all services meets the requirement of giving developers a fixed monthly budget to limit their AWS costs. AWS Budgets alert actions can send notifications through Amazon SNS when a budget threshold is breached. Amazon SNS can trigger an AWS Lambda function that can perform custom logic such as terminating all services in the developer’s account. This way, developers cannot exceed their budget limit and incur additional costs.

Questions # 105:

The company needs to determine which costs on the monthly AWS bill are attributable to each application or team. The company also must be able to create reports to compare costs from the last 12 months and to help forecast costs for the next 12 months.

Which combination of actions will meet these requirements? (Select THREE.)

Options:

Activate the user-defined cost allocation tags that represent the application and the team.

Activate the AWS generated cost allocation tags that represent the application and the team.

Create a cost category for each application in Billing and Cost Management.

Activate IAM access to Billing and Cost Management.

Create a cost budget.

Enable Cost Explorer.
