A company has a web application that securely uploads pictures and videos to an Amazon S3 bucket. The company requires that only authenticated users are allowed to post content. The application generates a presigned URL that is used to upload objects through a browser interface. Most users are reporting slow upload times for objects larger than 100 MB.

What can a Solutions Architect do to improve the performance of these uploads while ensuring only authenticated users are allowed to post content?

A.

Set up an Amazon API Gateway with an edge-optimized API endpoint that has a resource as an S3 service proxy. Configure the PUT method for this resource to expose the S3 PutObject operation. Secure the API Gateway using a COGNITO_USER_POOLS authorizer. Have the browser interface use API Gateway instead of the presigned URL to upload objects.

B.

Set up an Amazon API Gateway with a regional API endpoint that has a resource as an S3 service proxy. Configure the PUT method for this resource to expose the S3 PutObject operation. Secure the API Gateway using an AWS Lambda authorizer. Have the browser interface use API Gateway instead of the presigned URL to upload API objects.

C.

Enable an S3 Transfer Acceleration endpoint on the S3 bucket. Use the endpoint when generating the presigned URL. Have the browser interface upload the objects to this URL using the S3 multipart upload API.

D.

Configure an Amazon CloudFront distribution for the destination S3 bucket. Enable PUT and POST methods for the CloudFront cache behavior. Update the CloudFront origin to use an origin access identity (OAI). Give the OAI user s3:PutObject permissions in the bucket policy.

An international delivery company hosts a delivery management system on AWS. Drivers use the system to upload confirmation of delivery. Confirmation includes the recipient's signature or a photo of the package with the recipient. The driver's handheld device uploads signatures and photos through FTP to a single Amazon EC2 instance. Each handheld device saves a file in a directory based on the signed-in user, and the file name matches the delivery number. The EC2 instance then adds metadata to the file after querying a central database to pull delivery information. The file is then placed in Amazon S3 for archiving.

As the company expands, drivers report that the system is rejecting connections. The FTP server is having problems because of dropped connections and memory issues. In response to these problems, a system engineer schedules a cron task to reboot the EC2 instance every 30 minutes. The billing team reports that files are not always in the archive and that the central system is not always updated.

A solutions architect needs to design a solution that maximizes scalability to ensure that the archive always receives the files and that systems are always updated. The handheld devices cannot be modified, so the company cannot deploy a new application.

Enable the appropriate guardrail from the list of strongly recommended guardrails in AWS Control Tower. Apply the guardrail to the production OU.

C.

Use AWS Config to create a new mandatory guardrail. Apply the rule to all accounts in the production OU.

D.

Create a custom SCP in AWS Control Tower. Apply the SCP to the production OU.

A company has 10 accounts that are part of an organization in AWS Organizations AWS Config is configured in each account All accounts belong to either the Prod OU or the NonProd OU

The company has set up an Amazon EventBridge rule in each AWS account to notify an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic when an Amazon EC2 security group inbound rule is created with 0.0.0.0/0 as the source The company's security team is subscribed to the SNS topic

For all accounts in the NonProd OU the security team needs to remove the ability to create a security group inbound rule that includes 0.0.0.0/0 as the source

Which solution will meet this requirement with the LEAST operational overhead?

A.

Modify the EventBridge rule to invoke an AWS Lambda function to remove the security group inbound rule and to publish to the SNS topic Deploy the updated rule to the NonProd OU

B.

Add the vpc-sg-open-only-to-authorized-ports AWS Config managed rule to the NonProd OU

C.

Configure an SCP to allow the ec2 AulhonzeSecurityGrouplngress action when the value of the aws Sourcelp condition key is not 0.0.0.0/0 Apply the SCP to the NonProd OU

D.

Configure an SCP to deny the ec2 AuthorizeSecurityGrouplngress action when the value of the aws Sourcelp condition key is 0.0.0.0/0 Apply the SCP to the NonProd OU

A company has a website that serves many visitors. The company deploys a backend service for the website in a primary AWS Region and a disaster recovery (DR) Region.

A single Amazon CloudFront distribution is deployed for the website. The company creates an Amazon Route 53 record set with health checks and a failover routing policy for the primary Region's backend service. The company configures the Route 53 record set as an origin for the CloudFront distribution. The company configures another record set that points to the backend service's endpoint in the DR Region as a secondary failover record type. The TTL for both record sets is 60 seconds.

Currently, failover takes more than 1 minute. A solutions architect must design a solution that will provide the fastest failover time.

Which solution will achieve this goal?

A.

Deploy an additional CloudFront distribution. Create a new Route 53 failover record set with health checks for both CloudFront distributions.

B.

Set the TTL to 1 second for the existing Route 53 record sets that are used for the backend service in each Region.

C.

Create new record sets for the backend services by using a latency routing policy. Use the record sets as an origin in the CloudFront distribution.

D.

Create a CloudFront origin group that includes two origins, one for each backend service Region. Configure origin failover as a cache behavior for the CloudFront distribution.

Question:

A company hosts an application that uses several Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). During the initial startup of the EC2 instances, the EC2 instances run user data scripts to download critical content for the application from an Amazon S3 bucket.

The EC2 instances are launching correctly. However, after a period of time, the EC2 instances are terminated with the following error message:

“An instance was taken out of service in response to an ELB system health check failure.”

The only recent change to the deployment is that the company added a large amount of critical content to the S3 bucket.

What should a solutions architect do so that the production environment can deploy successfully?

A.

Increase the size of the EC2 instances.

B.

Increase the health check timeout for the ALB.

C.

Change the health check path for the ALB.

D.

Increase the health check grace period for the Auto Scaling group.
