QuestionQ8

Resilient Cloud Solutions

A company hosts an application on a single Amazon EC2 instance. The application metadata is kept in Amazon S3 and must be retrieved whenever the instance is restarted. The instance must automatically restart or relaunch if it becomes unresponsive.

Which solution meets these requirements?

Explanation

AWS OpsWorks Stacks auto healing detects a failed or unresponsive instance through the OpsWorks agent and automatically heals it. For Amazon EBS-backed instances, the healing process stops and starts the instance. OpsWorks Stacks also runs lifecycle-event recipes during instance lifecycle operations, allowing a recipe to pull the required application metadata from Amazon S3 after recovery.
