Amazon Amazon Certifications CLF-C01 Questions & Answers

• Question 1941:

  How does AWS MOST effectively reduce computing costs for a growing start-up company?

  A. It provides on-demand resources for peak usage.

  B. It automates the provisioning of individual developer environments.

  C. It automates customer relationship management.

  D. It implements a fixed monthly computing budget.

  Correct Answer: A

  You can continue to optimize your spend and keep your development costs low by making sure you revisit your architecture often, to adjust to your startup growth. Manage your cost further by leveraging different options such as S3 CloudFront for caching and offloading to reduce cost of EC2 computing, as well as Elastic Load Balancing which prepares you for massive scale, high reliability and uninterrupted growth. Another way to keep costs down is to use AWS Identity and Access Management solutions (IAM) to manage governance of your cost drivers effectively and by the right teams.

• Question 1946:

  Which solution provides the FASTEST application response times to frequently accessed data to users in multiple AWS Regions?

  A. AWS CloudTrail across multiple Availability Zones

  B. Amazon CloudFront to edge locations

  C. AWS CloudFormation in multiple regions

  D. A virtual private gateway over AWS Direct Connect

  Correct Answer: B

  You can deliver content and decrease end-user latency of your web application using Amazon CloudFront. CloudFront speeds up content delivery by leveraging its global network of data centers, known as edge locations, to reduce delivery time by caching your content close to your end users. CloudFront fetches your content from an origin, such as an Amazon S3 bucket, an Amazon EC2 instance, an Amazon Elastic Load Balancing load balancer or your own web server, when it's not already in an edge location. CloudFront can be used to deliver your entire website or application, including dynamic, static, streaming, and interactive content.

• Question 1947:

  A. AWS provides users with full control over the underlying resources.

  B. AWS does not require long-term contracts and provides a pay-as-you-go model.

  C. AWS offers edge locations in every country, supporting global reach.

  D. AWS has no limits on the number of resources that can be created.

  Correct Answer: B

  AWS offers you a pay-as-you-go approach for pricing for over 160 cloud services. With AWS you pay only for the individual services you need, for as long as you use them, and without requiring long-term contracts or complex licensing. AWS pricing is similar to how you pay for utilities like water and electricity. You only pay for the services you consume, and once you stop using them, there are no additional costs or termination fees.

You can transfer up to 100PB per Snowmobile, a 45-foot long ruggedized shipping container, pulled by a semi-trailer truck. Snowmobile makes it easy to move massive volumes of data to the cloud, including video libraries, image repositories, or even a complete data center migration. All data is encrypted with 256bit encryption and you can manage your encryption keys with AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS). Snowmobile includes GPS tracking, alarm monitoring, 24/7 video surveillance and an optional escort security vehicle while in transit.
