Amazon Amazon Certifications SAA-C02 Questions & Answers

  • Question 221:

    A company has an on-premises business application that generates hundreds of files each day. These files are stored on an SMB file share and require a low-latency connection to the application servers. A new company policy states all application-generated files must be copied to AWS. There is already a VPN connection to AWS.

    The application development team does not have time to make the necessary code modifications to move the application to AWS.

    Which service should a solutions architect recommend to allow the application to copy files to AWS?

    A. Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS)

    B. Amazon FSx for Windows File Server

    C. AWS Snowball

    D. AWS Storage Gateway

  • Question 222:

    A company is running a multi-tier web application on AWS. The application runs its database tier on Amazon Aurora MySQL. The application and database tiers are in the us-east-1 Region A database administrator who regularly monitors the Aurora DB cluster finds that an intermittent increase in read traffic is creating high CPU utilization on the read replica and causing increased read latency of the application What should a solutions architect do to improve read scalability?

    A. Reboot the Aurora DB cluster

    B. Create a cross-Region read replica

    C. Increase the instance class of the read replica

    D. Configure Aurora Auto Scaling for the read replica

  • Question 223:

    A solutions architect is designing storage for a high performance computing (HPC) environment based on Amazon Linux. The workload stores and processes a large amount of engineering drawings that require shared storage and heavy

    computing.

    Which storage option would be the optimal solution?

    A. Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS)

    B. Amazon FSx for Lustre

    C. Amazon EC2 instance store

    D. Amazon EBS Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1)

  • Question 224:

    A company maintains about 300 TB m Amazon S3 Standard storage month after month. The S3 objects are each typically around 50 GB m size and are frequently replaced with multipart uploads by their global application. The number and size of S3 objects remain constant but the company's S3 storage costs are increasing each month.

    How should a solutions architect reduce costs in this situation?

    A. Switch from multipart uploads to Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration

    B. Enable an S3 Lifecycle policy that deletes incomplete multipart uploads

    C. Configure S3 inventory to prevent objects from being archived too quickly

    D. Configure Amazon CloudFront to reduce the number of objects stored in Amazon S3

  • Question 225:

    A company hosts a website on premises and wants to migrate it to the AWS Cloud The website exposes a single hostname to the internet but it routes its functions to different on-premises server groups based on the path of the URL The server groups are scaled independently depending on the needs of the functions they support The company has an AWS Direct Connect connection configured to its on-premises network What should a solutions architect do to provide path-based routing to send the traffic to the correct group of servers?

    A. Route all traffic to an internet gateway Configure pattern matching rules at the internet gateway to route traffic to the group of servers supporting that path

    B. Route all traffic to a Network Load Balancer (NLB) with target groups for each group of servers Use pattern matching rules at the NLB to route traffic to the correct target group

    C. Route all traffic to an Application Load Balancer (ALB) Configure path-based routing at the ALB to route traffic to the correct target group for the servers supporting that path.

    D. Use Amazon Route 53 as the DNS server Configure Route 53 path-based alias records to route traffic to the correct Elastic Load Balancer for the group of servers supporting that path

  • Question 226:

    A company is building an application on Amazon EC2 instances that generates temporary transactional data

    The application requires access to data storage that can provide configurable and consistent IOPS What should a solutions architect recommend*?

    A. Provision an EC2 instance with a Throughput Optimized HDD (st1) root volume and a Cold HDD (set) data volume

    B. Provision an EC2 instance with a Throughput Optimized HDD (st1) volume that will serve as the root and data volume

    C. Provision an EC2 instance with a General Purpose SSD (gp2) root volume and Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1) data volume

    D. Provision an EC2 instance with a General Purpose SSD (gp2) root volume Configure the application to store its data in an Amazon S3 bucket

  • Question 227:

    A company's order fulfillment service uses a MySQL database. The database needs to support a large number of concurrent queries and transactions Developers are spending time patching and tuning the database This is causing delays in releasing new product features The company wants to use cloud-based services to help address this new challenge

    The solution must allow the developers to migrate the database with little or no code changes and must optimize performance.

    Which service should a solutions architect use to meet these requirements?

    A. Amazon Aurora

    B. Amazon DynamoDB

    C. Amazon ElastiCache

    D. MySQL on Amazon EC2

  • Question 228:

    A company's website hosted on Amazon EC2 instances processes classified data stored in Amazon S3 Due to security concerns, the company requires a private and secure connection between its EC2 resources and Amazon S3 Which solution meets these requirements?

    A. Set up S3 bucket policies to allow access from a VPC endpoint.

    B. Set up an IAM policy to grant read-write access to the S3 bucket.

    C. Set up a NAT gateway to access resources outside the private subnet.

    D. Set up an access key ID and a secret access key to access the S3 bucket

  • Question 229:

    A company is selling up an application to use an Amazon RDS MySQL DB instance. The database must be architected for high availability across Availability Zones and AWS Regions with minimal downtime. How should a solutions architect meet this requirement?

    B. Set up an RDS MySQL Multi-AZ DB instance. Configure a read replica in a different Region.

    C. Set up an RDS MySQL Single-AZ DB instance. Configure a read replica in a different Region.

    D. Set up an RDS MySQL Single-AZ DB instance. Copy automated snapshots to at least one other Region.

  • Question 230:

    A solution architect is designing a solution that involves orchestrating a series of Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) task types running on Amazon EC2 instances that are part of an ECS cluster. The output and state data for all

    tasks needs to be stored. The amount of data output by each task is approximately 10 MB, and there could be hundreds of tasks running at a time. The system should be optimized for high frequency reading and writing. As old outputs are

    archived and deleted the storage size is not expected to exceed 1 TB.

    Which storage solution should the solution architect recommend?

    A. An Amazon DynamoDB table accessible by all ECS cluster instances.

    B. An Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) with Provisioned Throughput mode.
