Question 101
A company has a serverless application comprised of Amazon CloudFront, Amazon API Gateway, and AWS Lambda functions. The current deployment process of the application code is to create a new version number of the Lambda function and run an AWS CLI script to update. If the new function version has errors, another CLI script reverts by deploying the previous working version of the function. The company would like to decrease the time to deploy new versions of the application logic provided by the Lambda functions, and also reduce the time to detect and revert when errors are identified.
How can this be accomplished?
- A: Create and deploy nested AWS CloudFormation stacks with the parent stack consisting of the AWS CloudFront distribution and API Gateway, and the child stack containing the Lambda function. For changes to Lambda, create an AWS CloudFormation change set and deploy; if errors are triggered, revert the AWS CloudFormation change set to the previous version.
- B: Use AWS SAM and built-in AWS CodeDeploy to deploy the new Lambda version, gradually shift traffic to the new version, and use pre-traffic and post-traffic test functions to verify code. Rollback if Amazon CloudWatch alarms are triggered.
- C: Refactor the AWS CLI scripts into a single script that deploys the new Lambda version. When deployment is completed, the script tests execute. If errors are detected, revert to the previous Lambda version.
- D: Create and deploy an AWS CloudFormation stack that consists of a new API Gateway endpoint that references the new Lambda version. Change the CloudFront origin to the new API Gateway endpoint, monitor errors and if detected, change the AWS CloudFront origin to the previous API Gateway endpoint.
Question 102
A company runs a web application on AWS. The web application delivers static content from an Amazon S3 bucket that is behind an Amazon CloudFront distribution. The application serves dynamic content by using an Application Load Balancer (ALB) that distributes requests to a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances in Auto Scaling groups. The application uses a domain name setup in Amazon Route 53.
Some users reported occasional issues when the users attempted to access the website during peak hours. An operations team found that the ALB sometimes returned HTTP 503 Service Unavailable errors. The company wants to display a custom error message page when these errors occur. The page should be displayed immediately for this error code.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?
- A: Set up a Route 53 failover routing policy. Configure a health check to determine the status of the ALB endpoint and to fail over to the failover S3 bucket endpoint.
- B: Create a second CloudFront distribution and an S3 static website to host the custom error page. Set up a Route 53 failover routing policy. Use an active-passive configuration between the two distributions.
- C: Create a CloudFront origin group that has two origins. Set the ALB endpoint as the primary origin. For the secondary origin, set an S3 bucket that is configured to host a static website Set up origin failover for the CloudFront distribution. Update the S3 static website to incorporate the custom error page.
- D: Create a CloudFront function that validates each HTTP response code that the ALB returns. Create an S3 static website in an S3 bucket. Upload the custom error page to the S3 bucket as a failover. Update the function to read the S3 bucket and to serve the error page to the end users.
Question 103
A company is planning to migrate an application to AWS. The application runs as a Docker container and uses an NFS version 4 file share.
A solutions architect must design a secure and scalable containerized solution that does not require provisioning or management of the underlying infrastructure.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
- A: Deploy the application containers by using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) with the Fargate launch type. Use Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) for shared storage. Reference the EFS file system ID, container mount point, and EFS authorization IAM role in the ECS task definition.
- B: Deploy the application containers by using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) with the Fargate launch type. Use Amazon FSx for Lustre for shared storage. Reference the FSx for Lustre file system ID, container mount point, and FSx for Lustre authorization IAM role in the ECS task definition.
- C: Deploy the application containers by using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) with the Amazon EC2 launch type and auto scaling turned on. Use Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) for shared storage. Mount the EFS file system on the ECS container instances. Add the EFS authorization IAM role to the EC2 instance profile.
- D: Deploy the application containers by using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) with the Amazon EC2 launch type and auto scaling turned on. Use Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes with Multi-Attach enabled for shared storage. Attach the EBS volumes to ECS container instances. Add the EBS authorization IAM role to an EC2 instance profile.
Question 104
A company is running an application in the AWS Cloud. The core business logic is running on a set of Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group. An Application Load Balancer (ALB) distributes traffic to the EC2 instances. Amazon Route 53 record api.example.com is pointing to the ALB.
The company's development team makes major updates to the business logic. The company has a rule that when changes are deployed, only 10% of customers can receive the new logic during a testing window. A customer must use the same version of the business logic during the testing window.
How should the company deploy the updates to meet these requirements?
- A: Create a second ALB, and deploy the new logic to a set of EC2 instances in a new Auto Scaling group. Configure the ALB to distribute traffic to the EC2 instances. Update the Route 53 record to use weighted routing, and point the record to both of the ALBs.
- B: Create a second target group that is referenced by the ALDeploy the new logic to EC2 instances in this new target group. Update the ALB listener rule to use weighted target groups. Configure ALB target group stickiness.
- C: Create a new launch configuration for the Auto Scaling group. Specify the launch configuration to use the AutoScalingRollingUpdate policy, and set the MaxBatchSize option to 10. Replace the launch configuration on the Auto Scaling group. Deploy the changes.
- D: Create a second Auto Scaling group that is referenced by the ALB. Deploy the new logic on a set of EC2 instances in this new Auto Scaling group. Change the ALB routing algorithm to least outstanding requests (LOR). Configure ALB session stickiness.
Question 105
A large education company recently introduced Amazon Workspaces to provide access to internal applications across multiple universities. The company is storing user profiles on an Amazon FSx for Windows File Server file system. The file system is configured with a DNS alias and is connected to a self-managed Active Directory. As more users begin to use the Workspaces, login time increases to unacceptable levels.
An investigation reveals a degradation in performance of the file system. The company created the file system on HDD storage with a throughput of 16 MBps. A solutions architect must improve the performance of the file system during a defined maintenance window.
What should the solutions architect do to meet these requirements with the LEAST administrative effort?
- A: Use AWS Backup to create a point-in-time backup of the file system. Restore the backup to a new FSx for Windows File Server file system. Select SSD as the storage type. Select 32 MBps as the throughput capacity. When the backup and restore process is completed, adjust the DNS alias accordingly. Delete the original file system.
- B: Disconnect users from the file system. In the Amazon FSx console, update the throughput capacity to 32 MBps. Update the storage type to SSD. Reconnect users to the file system.
- C: Deploy an AWS DataSync agent onto a new Amazon EC2 instance. Create a task. Configure the existing file system as the source location. Configure a new FSx for Windows File Server file system with SSD storage and 32 MBps of throughput as the target location. Schedule the task. When the task is completed, adjust the DNS alias accordingly. Delete the original file system.
- D: Enable shadow copies on the existing file system by using a Windows PowerShell command. Schedule the shadow copy job to create a point-in-time backup of the file system. Choose to restore previous versions. Create a new FSx for Windows File Server file system with SSD storage and 32 MBps of throughput. When the copy job is completed, adjust the DNS alias. Delete the original file system.
Question 106
A company hosts an application on AWS. The application reads and writes objects that are stored in a single Amazon S3 bucket. The company must modify the application to deploy the application in two AWS Regions.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?
- A: Set up an Amazon CloudFront distribution with the S3 bucket as an origin. Deploy the application to a second Region Modify the application to use the CloudFront distribution. Use AWS Global Accelerator to access the data in the S3 bucket.
- B: Create a new S3 bucket in a second Region. Set up bidirectional S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) between the original S3 bucket and the new S3 bucket. Configure an S3 Multi-Region Access Point that uses both S3 buckets. Deploy a modified application to both Regions.
- C: Create a new S3 bucket in a second Region Deploy the application in the second Region. Configure the application to use the new S3 bucket. Set up S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) from the original S3 bucket to the new S3 bucket.
- D: Set up an S3 gateway endpoint with the S3 bucket as an origin. Deploy the application to a second Region. Modify the application to use the new S3 gateway endpoint. Use S3 Intelligent-Tiering on the S3 bucket.
