A solutions architect must provide a secure way for a team of cloud engineers to use the AWS CLI to upload objects into an Amazon S3 bucket Each cloud engineer has an IAM user. IAM access keys and a virtual multi-factor authentication (MFA) device The IAM users for the cloud engineers are in a group that is named S3-access The cloud engineers must use MFA to perform any actions in Amazon S3

Which solution will meet these requirements?

A.

Attach a policy to the S3 bucket to prompt the 1AM user for an MFA code when the 1AM user performs actions on the S3 bucket Use 1AM access keys with the AWS CLI tocall Amazon S3

B.

Update the trust policy for the S3-access group to require principals to use MFA when principals assume the group Use 1AM access keys with the AWS CLI to call Amazon S3

C.

Attach a policy to the S3-access group to deny all S3 actions unless MFA is present Use 1AM access keys with the AWS CLI to call Amazon S3

D.

Attach a policy to the S3-access group to deny all S3 actions unless MFA is present Request temporary credentials from AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) Attach the temporary credentials in a profile that Amazon S3 will reference when the user performs actions in Amazon S3

A company is running several workloads in a single AWS account. A new company policy states that engineers can provision only approved resources and that engineers must use AWS CloudFormation to provision these resources. A solutions architect needs to create a solution to enforce the new restriction on the IAM role that the engineers use for access.

What should the solutions architect do to create the solution?

A.

Upload AWS CloudFormation templates that contain approved resources to an Amazon S3 bucket. Update the IAM policy for the engineers' IAM role to only allow access to Amazon S3 and AWS CloudFormation. Use AWS CloudFormation templates to provision resources.

B.

Update the IAM policy for the engineers' IAM role with permissions to only allow provisioning of approved resources and AWS CloudFormation. Use AWS CloudFormation templates to create stacks with approved resources.

C.

Update the IAM policy for the engineers' IAM role with permissions to only allow AWS CloudFormation actions. Create a new IAM policy with permission to provision approved resources, and assign the policy to a new IAM service role. Assign the IAM service role to AWS CloudFormation during stack creation.

D.

Provision resources in AWS CloudFormation stacks. Update the IAM policy for the engineers' IAM role to only allow access to their own AWS CloudFormation stack.

A company runs an application on Amazon EC2 and AWS Lambda. The application stores temporary data in Amazon 53. The 53 objects are deleted after 24 hours.

The company deploys new versions of the application by launching AWS CloudFormation stacks. The stacks create the required resources. After validating a new version, the company deletes the old stack. The deletion of an old development stack recently failed. A solutions architect needs to resolve this Issue without major architecture changes.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

A.

Create a Lambda function to delete objects from an 53 bucket. Add the Lambda function as acustom resource in the CloudFormation stack with a DependsOn attribute that points to the S3 bucket resource.

B.

Modify the CkxidFormatton stack to attach a DeletionPolicy attribute with a value of Delete to the S3 bucket.

C.

Update the CloudFormation stack to add a DeletionPolicy attribute with a value of Snapshot for the S3 bucket resource.

D.

Update the CloudFormation template to create an Amazon EFS file system to store temporary files Instead of Amazon S3. Configure the Lambda functions to run in the same VPC as the EFS file system.

A software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider exposes APIs through an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The ALB connects to an Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) cluster that is deployed in the us-east-I Region. The exposed APIs contain usage of a few non-standard REST methods: LINK, UNLINK, LOCK, and UNLOCK.

Users outside the United States are reporting long and inconsistent response times for these APIs. A solutions architect needs to resolve this problem with a solution that minimizes operational overhead.

Which solution meets these requirements?

A.

Add an Amazon CloudFront distribution. Configure the ALB as the origin.

B.

Add an Amazon API Gateway edge-optimized API endpoint to expose the APIs. Configure the ALB as the target.

C.

Add an accelerator in AWS Global Accelerator. Configure the ALB as the origin.

D.

Deploy the APIs to two additional AWS Regions: eu-west-l and ap-southeast-2. Add latency-based routing records in Amazon Route 53.

A company wants to migrate its website to AWS. The website uses microservices and runs on containers that are deployed in an on-premises, self-managed Kubernetes cluster. All the manifests that define the deployments for the containers in the Kubernetes deployment are in source control.

All data for the website is stored in a PostgreSQL database. An open source container image repository runs alongside the on-premises environment.

A solutions architect needs to determine the architecture that the company will use for the website on AWS.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST effort to migrate?

A.

Create an AWS App Runner service. Connect the App Runner service to the open source container image repository. Deploy the manifests from on premises to the App Runner service. Create an Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL database.

B.

Create an Amazon EKS cluster that has managed node groups. Copy the application containers to a new Amazon ECR repository. Deploy the manifests from on premises to the EKS cluster. Create an Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL DB cluster.

C.

Create an Amazon ECS cluster that has an Amazon EC2 capacity pool. Copy the application containers to a new Amazon ECR repository. Register each container image as a new task definition. Configure ECS services for each task definition to match the original Kubernetes deployments. Create an Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL DB cluster.

D.

Rebuild the on-premises Kubernetes cluster by hosting the cluster on Amazon EC2 instances. Migrate the open source container image repository to the EC2 instances. Deploy the manifests from on premises to the new cluster on AWS. Deploy an open source PostgreSQL database on the new cluster.
