A retail company is mounting IoT sensors in all of its stores worldwide. During the manufacturing of each sensor, the company ' s private certificate authority (CA) issues an X.509 certificate that contains a unique serial number. The company then deploys each certificate to its respective sensor.

A solutions architect needs to give the sensors the ability to send data to AWS after they are installed. Sensors must not be able to send data to AWS until they are installed.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

A.

Create an AWS Lambda function that can validate the serial number. Create an AWS IoT Core provisioning template. Include the SerialNumber parameter in the Parameters section. Add the Lambda function as a pre-provisioning hook. During manufacturing, call the RegisterThing API operation and specify the template and parameters.

B.

Create an AWS Step Functions state machine that can validate the serial number. Create an AWS IoT Core provisioning template. Include the SerialNumber parameter in the Parameters section. Specify the Step Functions state machine to validate parameters. Call the StartThingRegistrationTask API operation during installation.

C.

Create an AWS Lambda function that can validate the serial number. Create an AWS IoT Core provisioning template. Include the SerialNumber parameter in the Parameters section. Add the Lambda function as a pre-provisioning hook. Register the CA with AWS IoT Core, specify the provisioning template, and set the allow-auto-registration parameter.

D.

Create an AWS IoT Core provisioning template. Include the SerialNumber parameter in the Parameters section. Include parameter validation in the template. Provision a claim certificate and a private key for each device that uses the CA. Grant AWS IoT Core service permissions to update AWS IoT things during provisioning.

A company needs to aggregate Amazon CloudWatch logs from its AWS accounts into one central logging account. The collected logs must remain in the AWS Region of

creation. The central logging account will then process the logs, normalize the logs into standard output format, and stream the output logs to a security tool for more processing.

A solutions architect must design a solution that can handle a large volume of logging data that needs to be ingested. Less logging will occur outside normal business hours than during normal business hours. The logging solution must scale with the anticipated load. The solutions architect has decided to use an AWS Control Tower design to handle the multi-account logging process.

Which combination of steps should the solutions architect take to meet the requirements? (Select THREE.)

A.

Create a destination Amazon Kinesis data stream in the central logging account.

B.

Create a destination Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue in the central logging account.

C.

Create an IAM role that grants Amazon CloudWatch Logs the permission to add data to the Amazon Kinesis data stream. Create a trust policy. Specify thetrust policy in the IAM role. In each member account, create a subscription filter for each log group to send data to the Kinesis data stream.

D.

Create an IAM role that grants Amazon CloudWatch Logs the permission to add data to the Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue. Create atrust policy. Specify the trust policy in the IAM role. In each member account, create a single subscription filter for all log groups to send datato the SQSqueue.

E.

Create an AWS Lambda function. Program the Lambda function to normalize the logs in the central logging account and to write the logs to the security tool.

F.

Create an AWS Lambda function. Program the Lambda function to normalize the logs in the member accounts and to write the logs to the security tool.

A company operates a static content distribution platform that serves customers globally. The customers consume content from their own AWS accounts.

The company serves its content from an Amazon S3 bucket. The company uploads the content from its on-premises environment to the S3 bucket by using an S3 File Gateway.

The company wants to improve the platform ' s performance and reliability by serving content from the AWS Region that is geographically closest to customers. The company must route the on-premises data to Amazon S3 with minimal latency and without public internet exposure.

Which combination of steps will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead? (Select TWO.)

A.

Implement S3 Multi-Region Access Points.

B.

Use S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) to copy content to different Regions.

C.

Create an AWS Lambda function that tracks the routing of clients to Regions.

D.

Use an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection to connect to a Multi-Region Access Point.

E.

Use AWS PrivateLink and AWS Direct Connect to connect to a Multi-Region Access Point.

A company has used infrastructure as code (IaC) to provision a set of two Amazon EC2 instances. The instances have remained the same for several years.

The company ' s business has grown rapidly in the past few months. In response the company ' s operations team has implemented an Auto Scaling group to manage the sudden increases in traffic. Company policy requires a monthly installation of security updates on all operating systems that are running.

The most recent security update required a reboot. As a result, the Auto Scaling group terminated the instances and replaced them with new, unpatched instances.

Which combination of steps should a solutions architect recommend to avoid a recurrence of this issue? (Choose two.)

A.

Modify the Auto Scaling group by setting the Update policy to target the oldest launch configuration for replacement.

B.

Create a new Auto Scaling group before the next patch maintenance. During the maintenance window, patch both groups and reboot the instances.

C.

Create an Elastic Load Balancer in front of the Auto Scaling group. Configure monitoring to ensure that target group health checks return healthy after the Auto Scaling group replaces the terminated instances.

D.

Create automation scripts to patch an AMI, update the launch configuration, and invoke an Auto Scaling instance refresh.

E.

Create an Elastic Load Balancer in front of the Auto Scaling group. Configure termination protection on the instances.

A retail business runs an orders and payments solution that uses more than 100 AWS Lambda functions that are written in Python. As the company ' s product catalog grows, the company observes that many of the functions time out. The company reconfigures the functions to have the maximum available timeout values, and the company increases memory for the functions. However, the functions continue to time out.

The company investigates the timeout issue and finds that most failures occur when several functions have been chained together, which results in the initial function timing out while it waits for responses. A solutions architect must resolve these timeout issues while maintaining the cost and operational benefits of using Lambda functions.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the MINIMUM amount of application changes?

A.

Convert the solution to run in containers. Deploy an Amazon EKS cluster and enable auto scaling for the containers.

B.

Rewrite the Lambda functions in Java. Implement Amazon SQS queues between functions.

C.

Convert the solution to use an AWS Step Functions workflow to invoke the Lambda functions. Remove the direct function-to-function invocations.

D.

Combine groups of linked functions together in a single container image. Deploy the container by using Amazon ECS on Amazon EC2 Spot Instances.

A company is running applications on AWS in a multi-account environment. The company ' s sales team and marketing team use separate AWS accounts in AWS Organizations.

The sales team stores petabytes of data in an Amazon S3 bucket. The marketing team uses Amazon QuickSight for data visualizations. The marketing team needs access to data that the sates team stores in the S3 bucket. The company has encrypted the S3 bucket with an AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) key. The marketing team has already created the IAM service role for QuickSight to provide QuickSight access in the marketing AWS account. The company needs a solution that will provide secure access to the data in the S3 bucket across AWS accounts.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

A.

Create a new S3 bucket in the marketing account. Create an S3 replication rule in the sales account to copy the objects to the new S3 bucket in the marketing account. Update the QuickSight permissions in the marketing account to grant access to the new S3 bucket.

B.

Create an SCP to grant access to the S3 bucket to the marketing account. Use AWS Resource Access Manager (AWS RAM) to share the KMS key from the sates account with the marketing account. Update the QuickSight permissions in the marketing account to grant access to the S3 bucket.

C.

Update the S3 bucket policy in the marketing account to grant access to the QuickSight role. Create a KMS grant for the encryption key that is used in the S3 bucket. Grant decrypt access to the QuickSight role. Update the QuickSight permissions in the marketing account to grant access to the S3 bucket.

D.

Create an IAM role in the sales account and grant access to the S3 bucket. From the marketing account, assume the IAM role in the sales account to access the S3 bucket. Update the QuickSight rote, to create a trust relationship with the new IAM role in the sales account.
