A company builds a container image in an AWS CodeBuild project by running Docker commands. After the container image is built, the CodeBuild project uploads the container image to an Amazon S3 bucket. The CodeBuild project has an IAM service role that has permissions to access the S3 bucket.

A DevOps engineer needs to replace the S3 bucket with an Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) repository to store the container images. The

DevOps engineer creates an ECR private image repository in the same AWS Region of the CodeBuild project. The DevOps engineer adjusts the IAM service role with the permissions that are necessary to work with the new ECR repository. The DevOps engineer also places new repository information into the docker build command and the docker push command that are used in the buildspec.yml file.

A space exploration company receives telemetry data from multiple satellites. Small packets of data are received through Amazon API Gateway and are placed directly into an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) standard queue. A custom application is subscribed to the queue and transforms the data into a standard format.

Because of inconsistencies in the data that the satellites produce, the application is occasionally unable to transform the data. In these cases, the messages remain in the SQS queue. A DevOps engineer must develop a solution that retains the failed messages and makes them available to scientists for review and future processing.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

A.

Configure AWS Lambda to poll the SQS queue and invoke a Lambda function to check whether the queue messages are valid. If validation fails, send a copy of the data that is not valid to an Amazon S3 bucket so that the scientists can review and correct the data. When the data is corrected, amend the message in the SQS queue by using a replay Lambda function with the corrected data.

B.

Convert the SQS standard queue to an SQS FIFO queue. Configure AWS Lambda to poll the SQS queue every 10 minutes by using an Amazon EventBridge schedule. Invoke the Lambda function to identify any messages with a SentTimestamp value that is older than 5 minutes, push the data to the same location as the application's output location, and remove the messages from the queue.

C.

Create an SQS dead-letter queue. Modify the existing queue by including a redrive policy that sets the Maximum Receives setting to 1 and sets the dead-letter queue ARN to the ARN of the newly created queue. Instruct the scientists to use the dead-letter queue to review the data that is not valid. Reprocess this data at a later time.

D.

Configure API Gateway to send messages to different SQS virtual queues that are named for each of the satellites.

A company has an application that runs on AWS Lambda and sends logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. An Amazon Kinesis data stream is subscribed to the log groups in CloudWatch Logs. A single consumer Lambda function processes the logs from the data stream and stores the logs in an Amazon S3 bucket.

The company's DevOps team has noticed high latency during the processing and ingestion of some logs.

Which combination of steps will reduce the latency? (Select THREE.)

Options:

A.

Create a data stream consumer with enhanced fan-out. Set the Lambda function that processes the logs as the consumer.

B.

Increase the ParallelizationFactor setting in the Lambda event source mapping.

C.

Configure reserved concurrency for the Lambda function that processes the logs.

D.

Increase the batch size in the Kinesis data stream.

E.

Turn off the ReportBatchltemFailures setting in the Lambda event source mapping.

F.

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.)

Options:

A.

Use Amazon RDS Proxy to create a proxy. Connect the proxy to the Aurora cluster reader endpoint. Set a maximum connections percentage on the proxy.

B.

Implement database connection pooling inside the Lambda code. Set a maximum number of connections on the database connection pool.

C.

Implement the database connection opening outside the Lambda event handler code.

D.

Implement the database connection opening and closing inside the Lambda event handler code.

E.

Connect to the proxy endpoint from the Lambda function.

F.

Connect to the Aurora cluster endpoint from the Lambda function.

A company uses Amazon RDS for all databases in Its AWS accounts The company uses AWS Control Tower to build a landing zone that has an audit and logging account All databases must be encrypted at rest for compliance reasons. The company's security engineer needs to receive notification about any noncompliant databases that are in the company's accounts

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

Options:

A.

Use AWS Control Tower to activate the optional detective control (guardrail) to determine whether the RDS storage is encrypted Create an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic in the company's audit account. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to filter noncompliant events from the AWS Control Tower control (guardrail) to notify the SNS topic. Subscribe the security engineer's email address to the SNS topic

B.

Use AWS Cloud Formation StackSets to deploy AWS Lambda functions to every account. Write the Lambda function code to determine whether the RDS storage is encrypted in the account the function is deployed to Send the findings as an Amazon CloudWatch metric to the management account Create an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Create a CloudWatch alarm that notifies the SNS topic when metric thresholds are met. Subscribe t

C.

Create a custom AWS Config rule in every account to determine whether the RDS storage is encrypted Create an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic in the audit account Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to filter noncompliant events from the AWS Control Tower control (guardrail) to notify the SNS topic. Subscribe the security engineer's email address to the SNS topic

D.

Launch an Amazon EC2 instance. Run an hourly cron job by using the AWS CLI to determine whether the RDS storage is encrypted in each AWS account Store the results in an RDS database. Notify the security engineer by sending email messages from the EC2 instance when noncompliance is detected
