  • Question 154:

    A ride-hailing application stores bookings in a persistent Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instance. This program is very popular, and the corporation anticipates a tenfold rise in the application's user base over the next several months. The application receives a higher volume of traffic in the morning and evening.

    This application is divided into two sections:

    An internal booking component that takes online reservations in response to concurrent user queries.

    A component of a third-party customer relationship management (CRM) system that customer service professionals utilize. Booking data is accessed using queries in the CRM.

    To manage this workload effectively, a database professional must create a cost-effective database system.

    Which solution satisfies these criteria?

    A. Use Amazon ElastiCache for Redis to accept the bookings. Associate an AWS Lambda function to capture changes and push the booking data to the RDS for MySQL DB instance used by the CRM.

    B. Use Amazon DynamoDB to accept the bookings. Enable DynamoDB Streams and associate an AWS Lambda function to capture changes and push the booking data to an Amazon SQS queue. This triggers another Lambda function that pulls data from Amazon SQS and writes it to the RDS for MySQL DB instance used by the CRM.

    C. Use Amazon ElastiCache for Redis to accept the bookings. Associate an AWS Lambda function to capture changes and push the booking data to an Amazon Redshift database used by the CRM.

    D. Use Amazon DynamoDB to accept the bookings. Enable DynamoDB Streams and associate an AWS Lambda function to capture changes and push the booking data to Amazon Athena, which is used by the CRM.

  • Question 155:

    A large gaming company is creating a centralized solution to store player session state for multiple online games. The workload required key-value storage with low latency and will be an equal mix of reads and writes. Data should be written into the AWS Region closest to the user across the games' geographically distributed user base. The architecture should minimize the amount of overhead required to manage the replication of data between Regions.

    Which solution meets these requirements?

    A. Amazon RDS for MySQL with multi-Region read replicas

    B. Amazon Aurora global database

    C. Amazon RDS for Oracle with GoldenGate

    D. Amazon DynamoDB global tables

  • Question 156:

    A company with branch offices in Portland, New York, and Singapore has a three-tier web application that leverages a shared database. The database runs on Amazon RDS for MySQL and is hosted in the us-west-2 Region. The application has a distributed front end deployed in the us-west-2, ap-southheast-1, and us-east-2 Regions.

    This front end is used as a dashboard for Sales Managers in each branch office to see current sales statistics. There are complaints that the dashboard performs more slowly in the Singapore location than it does in Portland or New York. A solution is needed to provide consistent performance for all users in each location.

    Which set of actions will meet these requirements?

    A. Take a snapshot of the instance in the us-west-2 Region. Create a new instance from the snapshot in the ap-southeast-1 Region. Reconfigure the ap-southeast-1 front-end dashboard to access this instance.

    B. Create an RDS read replica in the ap-southeast-1 Region from the primary RDS DB instance in the us- west-2 Region. Reconfigure the ap-southeast-1 front-end dashboard to access this instance.

    C. Create a new RDS instance in the ap-southeast-1 Region. Use AWS DMS and change data capture (CDC) to update the new instance in the ap-southeast-1 Region. Reconfigure the ap-southeast-1 front-end dashboard to access this instance.

    D. Create an RDS read replica in the us-west-2 Region where the primary instance resides. Create a read replica in the ap-southeast-1 Region from the read replica located on the us- west-2 Region. Reconfigure the ap-southeast-1 front-end dashboard to access this instance.

  • Question 157:

    A company has an application environment that deploys Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL databases as part of its CI/CD process that uses AWS CloudFormatlon. The company's database administrator has received reports of performance Issues from the resulting database but has no way to investigate the issues.

    Which combination of changes must the database administrator make to the database deployment to automate the collection of performance data? (Select TWO.)
