    Which solution will meet this requirement?

    A. Configure AWS Systems Manager State Manager associations to bootstrap the EC2 instances with the required software at launch.
    B. Use the Amazon CloudWatch agent to detect EC2 InstanceStart events and to inject the required software. Modify the InstanceRole IAM role to add permissions for the StartTask API operation.
    C. Use Amazon Inspector to detect EC2 launch events. Configure Amazon Inspector to install the required software as part of lifecycle hooks for the EC2 launch events.
    D. Use AWS Security Hub remediation actions to install the required software at launch.

  • Question 372:

    A company is planning to host an application on a set of Amazon EC2 instances that are distributed across multiple Availability Zones. The application must be able to scale to millions of requests each second. A SysOps administrator must design a solution to distribute the traffic to the EC2 instances.

  • Question 373:

    A company is deploying a third-party unit testing solution that is delivered as an Amazon EC2 Amazon Machine Image (AMI). The company is deploying the testing solution on On- Demand Instances. The company wants to use an additional three Spot Instances when the Spot Instance prices drop to a specific threshold. A minimum of three instances are required at all times to operate the testing solution. A SysOps administrator must implement high availability for the architecture.

    Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST management overhead?

    A. Configure a launch template for the Spot Instances. Set the maximum price for the Spot Instances. Configure another launch template for the On-Demand Instances.
    B. Configure a launch template that uses the InstanceMarketOptions property for the Spot Instances and the On-Demand Instances. Set the maximum price for the Spot Instances.
    C. Configure a launch template that uses the MixedInstancesPolicy property for the Spot Instances and the On-Demand Instances. Set the maximum price for the Spot Instances.
    D. Configure a launch template that uses the InstanceMarketOptions property and the MixedInstancesPolicy property for the Spot Instances and the On-Demand Instances. Set the maximum price for the Spot Instances.

  • Question 374:

    A SysOps administrator needs to ensure that an Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL DB instance has available backups The DB instance has automated backups turned on with a backup retention period of 7 days. However, no automated backups for the DB instance have been created in the past month.

    A. The Amazon S3 bucket that stores the backups is full
    B. The DB instance is in the STORAGE_FULL state
    C. The DB instance is not configured for Multi-AZ.
    D. The backup retention period must be 30 days.

  • Question 375:

After adding and configuring the required components to the VPC. the administrator is unable to connect to any of the domains that reside on the internet.

    What additional route destination rule should the administrator add to the route tables?

    A. Route ;:/0 traffic to a NAT gateway
    B. Route ::/0 traffic to an internet gateway
    C. Route 0.0.0.0/0 traffic to an egress-only internet gateway
    D. Route ::/0 traffic to an egress-only internet gateway

  • Question 376:

    A company has implemented a Kubernetes cluster on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon ECS) to host a microservices-based application. The company expects application traffic to increase significantly for the next month and wants to prevent the application from crashing because of the high number of requests.

    Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST administrative overhead?

    A. Create a second EKS cluster. Load balance the workload between the two clusters.
    B. Implement the Kubernetes Horizontal Pod Autoscaler. Set a target CPU utilization percentage.
    C. Migrate the application from Amazon EKS to Amazon EC2 for the next month. Migrate the application back to Amazon EKS when the month ends.
    D. Implement the Kubernetes Vertical Pod Autoscaler. Set a target CPU utilization percentage.

  • Question 377:

    An ecommerce company uses an Amazon ElastiCache for Redis cluster for in-memory caching of popular product queries on a shopping website. The cache eviction policy is randomly evicting keys whether or not a TTL is set. A SysOps administrator must improve the cache hit ratio without increasing costs.
