A company is running a custom-built application that processes records. All the components run on Amazon EC2 instances that run in an Auto Scaling group. Each record's processing is a multistep sequential action that is compute-intensive. Each step is always completed in 5 minutes or less.
A limitation of the current system is that if any steps fail, the application has to reprocess the record from the beginning The company wants to update the architecture so that the application must reprocess only the failed steps.
What is the MOST operationally efficient solution that meets these requirements?
A company uses AWS Organizations to manage its AWS accounts. The organization root has a child OU that is named Department. The Department OU has a child OU that is named Engineering. The default FullAWSAccess policy is attached to the root, the Department OU. and the Engineering OU.
The company has many AWS accounts in the Engineering OU. Each account has an administrative 1AM role with the AdmmistratorAccess 1AM policy attached. The default FullAWSAccessPolicy is also attached to each account.
A DevOps engineer plans to remove the FullAWSAccess policy from the Department OU The DevOps engineer will replace the policy with a policy that contains an Allow statement for all Amazon EC2 API operations.
What will happen to the permissions of the administrative 1AM roles as a result of this change'?
A company runs hundreds of EC2 instances with new instances launched/terminated hourly. Security requires all running instances to have an instance profile attached. A default profile exists and must be attached automatically to any instance missing one.
Which solution meets this requirement?
A company is migrating its web application to AWS. The application uses WebSocket connections for real-time updates and requires sticky sessions.
A DevOps engineer must implement a highly available architecture for the application. The application must be accessible to users worldwide with the least possible latency.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?
A DevOps engineer needs to design a cloud-based solution to standardize deployment artifacts for AWS Cloud deployments and on-premises deployments. There is currently no routing traffic between the on-premises data center and the AWS environment.
The solution must be able to consume downstream packages from public repositories and must be highly available. Data must be encrypted in transit and at rest. The solution must store the deployment artifacts in object storage and deploy the deployment artifacts into Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS). The deployment artifacts must be encrypted in transit if the deployment artifacts travel across the public internet.
The DevOps engineer needs to deploy this solution in less than two weeks.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A DevOps engineer is building an application that uses an AWS Lambda function to query an Amazon Aurora MySQL DB cluster. The Lambda function performs only read queries. Amazon EventBridge events invoke the Lambda function.
As more events invoke the Lambda function each second, the database's latency increases and the database's throughput decreases. The DevOps engineer needs to improve the performance of the application.
Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Select THREE.)
A company has application code in an AWS CodeConnections compatible Git repository. The company wants to configure unit tests to run when pull requests are opened. The company wants to ensure that the test status is visible in pull requests when the tests are completed. The company wants to save output data files that the tests generate to an Amazon S3 bucket after the tests are finished. Which combination of solutions will meet these requirements? (Select THREE.)
A company has a file-reading application that saves files to a database running on Amazon EC2 instances. Regulations require daily file deletions from EC2 instances and deletion of database records older than 60 days. Database record deletion must occur after file deletion. The company needs email notifications for any deletion script failures.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST development effort?
A company uses Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda functions to implement an API. The company uses a pipeline in AWS CodePipeline to build and deploy the API. The pipeline contains a source stage, build stage, and deployment stage.
The company deploys the API without performing smoke tests. Soon after the deployment, the company observes multiple issues with the API. A security audit finds security vulnerabilities in the production code.
The company wants to prevent these issues from happening in the future.
Which combination of steps will meet this requirement? (Select TWO.)
A DevOps engineer is researching the least expensive way to implement an image batch processing cluster on AWS. The application cannot run in Docker containers and must run on Amazon EC2. The batch job stores checkpoint data on an NFS volume and can tolerate interruptions. Configuring the cluster software from a generic EC2 Linux image takes 30 minutes.
What is the MOST cost-effective solution?
A company in a highly regulated industry is building an artifact by using AWS CodeBuild and AWS CodePipeline. The company must connect to an external authenticated API during the building process.
The company's DevOps engineer needs to encrypt the build outputs by using an AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) key. The external API credentials must be reset each month. The DevOps engineer has created a new key in AWS KMS.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company uses an organization in AWS Organizations that has all features enabled. The company uses AWS Backup in a primary account and uses an AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) key to encrypt the backups.
The company needs to automate a cross-account backup of the resources that AWS Backup backs up in the primary account. The company configures cross-account backup in the Organizations management account. The company creates a new AWS account in the organization and configures an AWS Backup backup vault in the new account. The company creates a KMS key in the new account to encrypt the backups. Finally, the company configures a new backup plan in the primary account. The destination for the new backup plan is the backup vault in the new account.
When the AWS Backup job in the primary account is invoked, the job creates backups in the primary account. However, the backups are not copied to the new account's backup vault.
Which combination of steps must the company take so that backups can be copied to the new account's backup vault? (Select TWO.)
A global company uses Amazon S3 to host its product catalog website in the us-east-1 Region. The company must improve website performance for users across different geographical regions and must reduce the load on the origin server. The company must implement a highly available cross-Region solution that uses Amazon CloudFront. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational effort?
A development team manually builds a local artifact. The development team moves the artifact to an Amazon S3 bucket to support an application. The application has a local cache that must be cleared when the development team deploys the application to Amazon EC2 instances. For each deployment, the development team runs a command to clear the cache, download the artifact from the S3 bucket, and unzip the artifact to complete the deployment.
The development team wants to migrate the deployment process to a CI/CD process and to track the progress of each deployment.
Which combination of actions will meet these requirements with the MOST operational efficiency? (Select THREE.)
The security team depends on AWS CloudTrail to detect sensitive security issues in the company's AWS account. The DevOps engineer needs a solution to auto-remediate CloudTrail being turned off in an AWS account.
What solution ensures the LEAST amount of downtime for the CloudTrail log deliveries?
AnyCompany is using AWS Organizations to create and manage multiple AWS accounts AnyCompany recently acquired a smaller company, Example Corp. During the acquisition process, Example Corp's single AWS account joined AnyCompany's management account through an Organizations invitation. AnyCompany moved the new member account under an OU that is dedicated to Example Corp.
AnyCompany's DevOps eng•neer has an IAM user that assumes a role that is named OrganizationAccountAccessRole to access member accounts. This role is configured with a full access policy When the DevOps engineer tries to use the AWS Management Console to assume the role in Example Corp's new member account, the DevOps engineer receives the following error message "Invalid information in one or more fields. Check your information or contact your administrator."
Which solution will give the DevOps engineer access to the new member account?
A company is building a web and mobile application that uses a serverless architecture powered by AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway The company wants to fully automate the backend Lambda deployment based on code that is pushed to the appropriate environment branch in an AWS CodeCommit repository
The deployment must have the following:
• Separate environment pipelines for testing and production
• Automatic deployment that occurs for test environments only
