Amazon Amazon Certifications SAA-C02 Questions & Answers

  • Question 51:

    A marketing company is storing CSV files in an Amazon S3 bucket for statistical analysis An application on an Amazon EC2 instance needs permission to efficiently process the CSV data stored in the S3 bucket.

    Which action will MOST securely grant the EC2 instance access to the S3 bucket?

    A. Attach a resource-based policy to the S3 bucket

    C. Associate an IAM role with least privilege permissions to the EC2 instance profile

    D. Store AWS credentials directly on the EC2 instance for applications on the instance to use for API calls

  • Question 52:

    A company's website is used to sell products to the public The site runs on Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) There is also an Amazon CloudFront distribution and AWS WAF is being used to protect against SQL injection attacks The ALB is the origin for the CloudFront distribution A recent review of security logs revealed an external malicious IP that needs to be blocked from accessing the website What should a solutions architect do to protect the application?

    A. Modify the network ACL on the CloudFront distribution to add a deny rule for the malicious IP address

    B. Modify the configuration of AWS WAF to add an IP match condition to block the malicious IP address

    C. Modify the network ACL for the EC2 instances in the target groups behind the ALB to deny the malicious IP address

    D. Modify the security groups for the EC2 instances in the target groups behind the ALB to deny the malicious IP address

  • Question 53:

    A solutions architect has created a new AWS account and must secure AWS account root user access Which combination of actions will accomplish this? (Select TWO.)

    A. Ensure the root user uses a strong password

    B. Enable multi-factor authentication to the root user

    C. Store root user access keys in an encrypted Amazon S3 bucket

    D. Add the root user to a group containing administrative permissions.

    E. Apply the required permissions to the root user with an inline policy document

  • Question 54:

    An application is running on an Amazon EC2 instance and must have millisecond latency when running the workload. The application makes many small reads and writes to the file system, but the file system itself is small. Which Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume type should a solutions architect attach to their EC2 instance?

    A. Cold HDD (sc1)

    B. General Purpose SSD (gp2)

    C. Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1)

    D. Throughput Optimized HDD (st1)

  • Question 55:

    A company is creating a three-tier web application consisting of a web server, an application server, and a database server. The application will track GPS coordinates of packages as they are being delivered. The application will update the

    database every 0-5 seconds. The tracking will need to read a fast as possible for users to check the status of their packages. Only a few packages might be tracked on some days, whereas millions of package might be tracked on other days.

    Tracking will need to be searchable by tracking ID customer ID and order ID Order than 1 month no longer read to be tracked.

    What should a solution architect recommend to accomplish this with minimal cost of ownership?

    A. Use Amazon DynamoDB Enable Auto Scaling on the DynamoDB table. Schedule an automatic deletion script for items older than 1 month.

    B. Use Amazon DynamoDB with global secondary indexes. Enable Auto Scaling on the DynamoDB table and the global secondary indexes. Enable TTL on the DynamoDB table.

    C. Use an Amazon RDS On-Demand instance with Provisioned IOPS (PIOPS). Enable Amazon CloudWatch alarms to send notifications when PIOPS are exceeded. Increase and decrease PIOPS as needed.

    D. Use a Amazon RDS Reserved Instance with Provisioned IOPS (PIOPS). Enable Amazon CloudWatch alarms to send notification when PIOPS are exceeded. Increase and decrease PIOPS as needed.

  • Question 56:

    A company is building a website that relies on reading and writing to an Amazon DynamoDB database. The traffic associated with the website predictably peaks during business hours on weekdays and declines overnight and during weekends. A solutions architect needs to design a cost-effective solution that can handle the load.

    What should the solutions architect do to meet these requirements?

    A. Enable DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) to cache the data.

    B. Enable Multi-AZ replication for the DynamoDB database.

    C. Enable DynamoDB auto scaling when creating the tables.

    D. Enable DynamoDB On-Demand capacity allocation when creating the tables.

  • Question 57:

    A solutions architect is creating an application that will handle batch processing of large amounts of data.

    The input data will be held in Amazon S3 and the output data will be stored in a different S3 bucket. For processing, the application will transfer the data over the network between multiple Amazon EC2 instances.

    What should the solutions architect do to reduce the overall data transfer costs?

    A. Place all the EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group.

    B. Place all the EC2 instances in the same AWS Region.

    C. Place all the EC2 instances in the same Availability Zone.

    D. Place all the EC2 instances in private subnets in multiple Availability Zones.

  • Question 58:

    A solutions architect is designing the cloud architecture for a new application being deployed to AWS. The application allows users to interactively download and upload files. Files older than 2 years will be accessedless frequently. The

    solutions architect needs to ensure that the application can scale to any number of files while maintaining high availability and durability.

    Which scalable solutions should the solutions architect recommend? (Choose two.)

    A. Store the files on Amazon S3 with a lifecycle policy that moves objects older than 2 years to S3 Glacier.

    B. Store the files on Amazon S3 with a lifecycle policy that moves objects older than 2 years to S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA)

    C. Store the files on Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) with a lifecycle policy that moves objects older than 2 years to EFS Infrequent Access (EFS IA).

    D. Store the files in Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes. Schedule snapshots of the volumes. Use the snapshots to archive data older than 2 years.

    E. Store the files in RAID-striped Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes. Schedule snapshots of the volumes. Use the snapshots to archive data older than 2 years.

  • Question 59:

    A media company stores video content in an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume. A certain video file has become popular and a large number of users across the world are accessing this content. This has resulted in a cost

    increase.

    Which action will DECREASE cost without compromising user accessibility?

    A. Change the EBS volume to Provisioned IOPS (PIOPS).

    B. Store the video in an Amazon S3 bucket and create an Amazon CloudFront distribution.

    C. Split the video into multiple, smaller segments so users are routed to the requested video segments only.

    D. Clear an Amazon S3 bucket in each Region and upload the videos so users are routed to the nearest S3 bucket.

    B. Amazon EC2 instances in private subnets Configure Configure a public Application Load Balancer with multiple redundant Amazon CloudFront to deliver HTTPS content using the EC2 instances as the origin.

    C. Configure a public Application Load Balancer (ALB) with multiple redundant Amazon EC2 instances in private subnets Configure Amazon CloudFront to deliver HTTPS content using the public ALB as the origin

    D. Configure a public Application Load Balancer with multiple redundant Amazon EC2 instances in public subnets Configure Amazon CloudFront to deliver HTTPS content using the EC2 instances as the origin
