  • Question 542:

    A company has primary and secondary data centers that are 500 miles (804.7 km) apart and interconnected with high-speed fiber-optic cable. The company needs a highly available and secure network connection between its data centers and a VPC on AWS for a mission-critical workload. A solutions architect must choose a connection solution that provides maximum resiliency.

    Which solution meets these requirements?

    A. Two AWS Direct Connect connections from the primary data center terminating at two Direct Connect locations on two separate devices

    B. A single AWS Direct Connect connection from each of the primary and secondary data centers terminating at one Direct Connect location on the same device

    C. Two AWS Direct Connect connections from each of the primary and secondary data centers terminating at two Direct Connect locations on two separate devices

    D. A single AWS Direct Connect connection from each of the primary and secondary data centers terminating at one Direct Connect location on two separate devices

  • Question 543:

    A company is developing a file-sharing application that will use an Amazon S3 bucket for storage. The company wants to serve all the files through an Amazon CloudFront distribution. The company does not want the files to be accessible through direct navigation to the S3 URL.

    What should a solutions architect do to meet these requirements?

    A. Write individual policies for each S3 bucket to grant read permission for only CloudFront access.

    B. Create an IAM user. Grant the user read permission to objects in the S3 bucket. Assign the user to CloudFront.

    C. Write an S3 bucket policy that assigns the CloudFront distribution ID as the Principal and assigns the target S3 bucket as the Amazon Resource Name (ARN).

    D. Create an origin access identity (OAI). Assign the OAI to the CloudFront distribution. Configure the S3 bucket permissions so that only the OAI has read permission.

  • Question 544:

    A company hosts an application on AWS Lambda functions that are invoked by an Amazon API Gateway API. The Lambda functions save customer data to an Amazon Aurora MySQL database. Whenever the company upgrades the

    database, the Lambda functions fail to establish database connections until the upgrade is complete. The result is that customer data is not recorded for some of the event.

    A solutions architect needs to design a solution that stores customer data that is created during database upgrades.

    Which solution will meet these requirements?

    A. Provision an Amazon RDS proxy to sit between the Lambda functions and the database. Configure the Lambda functions to connect to the RDS proxy.

    B. Increase the run time of the Lambda functions to the maximum. Create a retry mechanism in the code that stores the customer data in the database.

    C. Persist the customer data to Lambda local storage. Configure new Lambda functions to scan the local storage to save the customer data to the database.

    D. Store the customer data in an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) FIFO queue. Create a new Lambda function that polls the queue and stores the customer data in the database.

  • Question 545:

    A company needs to ingested and handle large amounts of streaming data that its application generates. The application runs on Amazon EC2 instances and sends data to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, which is configured with default settings. Every other day, the application consumes the data and writes the data to an Amazon S3 bucket for business intelligence (BI) processing. The company observes that Amazon S3 is not receiving all the data that the application sends to Kinesis Data Streams.

    What should a solutions architect do to resolve this issue?

    A. Update the Kinesis Data Streams default settings by modifying the data retention period.

    B. Update the application to use the Kinesis Producer Library (KPL) to send the data to Kinesis Data Streams.

    C. Update the number of Kinesis shards to handle the throughput of the data that is sent to Kinesis Data Streams.

    D. Turn on S3 Versioning within the S3 bucket to preserve every version of every object that is ingested in the S3 bucket.

  • Question 546:

    An online photo-sharing company stores its photos in an Amazon S3 bucket that exists in the us-west-1 Region. The company needs to store a copy of all existing and new photos in another geographical location. Which solution will meet this requirement with the LEAST operational effort?

    A. Create a second S3 bucket in us-east-1. Enable S3 Cross-Region Replication from the existing S3 bucket to the second S3 bucket.

    B. Create a cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) configuration of the existing S3 bucket. Specify us-east-1 in the CORS rule's AllowedOrigin element.

    C. Create a second S3 bucket in us-east-1 across multiple Availability Zones. Create an S3 Lifecycle management rule to save photos into the second S3 bucket.

    D. Create a second S3 bucket in us-east-1 to store the replicated photos. Configure S3 event notifications on object creation and update events that invoke an AWS Lambda function to copy photos from the existing S3 bucket to the second S3 bucket.

  • Question 547:

    A company uses AWS Organizations to manage multiple AWS accounts for different departments. The management account has an Amazon S3 bucket that contains project reports. The company wants to limit access to this S3 bucket to only users of accounts within the organization in AWS Organizations.

    Which solution meets these requirements with the LEAST amount of operational overhead?

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

    B. Create an organizational unit (OU) for each department. Add the aws:PrincipalOrgPaths global condition key to the S3 bucket policy.

    C. Use AWS CloudTrail to monitor the CreateAccount, InviteAccountToOrganization, LeaveOrganization, and RemoveAccountFromOrganization events. Update the S3 bucket policy accordingly.

    D. Tag each user that needs access to the S3 bucket. Add the aws:PrincipalTag global condition key to the S3 bucket policy.

  • Question 548:

    A solutions architect is designing a two-tiered architecture that has separate private subnets for compute resources and the database. An AWS Lambda function that is deployed in the compute subnets needs connectivity to the database. Which solution will provide this connectivity in the MOST secure way?

    A. Configure the Lambda function to use Amazon RDS Proxy outside the VPC.

    B. Associate a security group with the Lambda function. Authorize this security group in the database's security group.

    C. Authorize the compute subnet's CIDR ranges in the database's security group.

    D. During the initialization phase, authorize all IP addresses in the database's security group temporarily. Remove the rule after the initialization is complete.

  • Question 549:

    A ride-sharing company stores historical service usage data as structured .csv data files in Amazon S3. A data analyst needs to perform SQL queries on this data. A solutions architect must recommend a solution that optimizes cost-effectiveness for the queries.
