A DevOps team manages infrastructure for an application. The application uses long-running processes to process items from an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue. The application is deployed to an Auto Scaling group.

The application recently experienced an issue where items were taking significantly longer to process. The queue exceeded the expected size, which prevented various business processes from functioning properly. The application records all logs to a third-party tool.

The team is currently subscribed to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic that the team uses for alerts. The team needs to be alerted if the queue exceeds the expected size.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the MOST operational efficiency?

A.

Create an Amazon CloudWatch metric alarm with a period of 1 hour and a static threshold to alarm if the average of the ApproximateNumberOfMessagesDelayed metric is greater than the expected value. Configure the alarm to notify the SNS topic.

B.

D.

Create an AWS Lambda function that checks the ApproximateNumberOfMessagesDelayed SQS queue attribute and compares the value to a defined expected size in the function. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule that is scheduled to run every 5 minutes and that invokes the Lambda function. When the ApproximateNumberOfMessagesDelayed SQS queue attribute exceeds the expected size, send a notification the SNS topic.

A company has developed a static website hosted on an Amazon S3 bucket. The website is deployed using AWS CloudFormation. The CloudFormation template defines an S3 bucket and a custom resource that copies content into the bucket from a source location.

The company has decided that it needs to move the website to a new location, so the existing CloudFormation stack must be deleted and re-created. However, CloudFormation reports that the stack could not be deleted cleanly.

What is the MOST likely cause and how can the DevOps engineer mitigate this problem for this and future versions of the website?

A.

Deletion has failed because the S3 bucket has an active website configuration. Modify the Cloud Formation template to remove the WebsiteConfiguration properly from the S3 bucket resource.

B.

Deletion has failed because the S3 bucket is not empty. Modify the custom resource's AWS Lambda function code to recursively empty the bucket when RequestType is Delete.

C.

Deletion has failed because the custom resource does not define a deletion policy. Add a DeletionPolicy property to the custom resource definition with a value of RemoveOnDeletion.

D.

Deletion has failed because the S3 bucket is not empty. Modify the S3 bucket resource in the CloudFormation template to add a DeletionPolicy property with a value of Empty.

Over time, the number of pull requests has increased. The pipeline is frequently blocked because of failing tests. To prevent this blockage, the development team wants to run the unit and integration tests on each pull request before it is merged.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

A.

Create a CodeBuild project to run the unit and integration tests. Create a CodeCommit approval rule template. Configure the template to require the successful invocation of the CodeBuild project. Attach the approval rule to the project's CodeCommit repository.

Configure the CodeBuild project as a target of the EventBridge rule that includes a custom event payload with the CodeCommit repository and branch information from the event.

C.

Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to match pullRequestCreated events from CodeCommit. Modify the existing CodePipeline pipeline to not run the deploy steps if the build is started from a pull request. Configure the EventBridge rule to run the pipeline with a custom payload that contains the CodeCommit repository and branch information from the event.

D.

Create a CodeBuild project to run the unit and integration tests. Create a CodeCommit notification rule that matches when a pull request is created or updated. Configure the notification rule to invoke the CodeBuild project.
