A company has an loT platform that runs in an on-premises environment. The platform consists of a server that connects to loT devices by using the MQTT protocol. The platform collects telemetry data from the devices at least once every 5 minutes The platform also stores device metadata in a MongoDB cluster

An application that is installed on an on-premises machine runs periodic jobs to aggregate and transform the telemetry and device metadata The application creates reports that users view by using another web application that runs on the same on-premises machine The periodic jobs take 120-600 seconds to run However, the web application is always running.

Questions 80

A company uses an AWS CloudFormation template to deploy an Amazon ECS service into a production environment. The template includes an Amazon S3 bucket that is named by using a common prefix with the CloudFormation stack name.

The company uses the same template to create temporary environments for development and continuous integration. Developers can create environments successfully, but they receive errors from CloudFormation when they attempt to delete the environments. The developers often need to delete and recreate stacks with the same names as part of the development and testing process.

Which combination of steps should a solutions architect take to modify the solution to resolve this issue? (Select TWO.)

Options:

A.

Associate an AWS Lambda function with a CloudFormation custom resource to delete all keys that are present in a given S3 bucket. Implement this custom resource as part of the application's CloudFormation template.

B.

Modify the S3 bucket resource in the CloudFormation template by specifying Delete for the DeletionPolicy attribute. Specify the CAPABILITY_DELETE_NONEMPTY capability to process CloudFormation delete operations.

C.

Modify the S3 bucket resource in the CloudFormation template by specifying Retain for the DeletionPolicy attribute. Configure an AWS Config custom rule to run every 24 hours to identify, empty, and delete buckets that are no longer owned by a CloudFormation stack.

A company has a serverless application comprised of Amazon CloudFront, Amazon API Gateway, and AWS Lambda functions. The current deployment process of the application code is to create a new version number of the Lambda function and run an AWS CLI script to update.

Questions 105

A company runs a highly available data collection application on Amazon EC2 in the eu-north-1 Region. The application collects data from end-user devices and writes records to an Amazon Kinesis data stream and a set of AWS Lambda functions that process the records. The company persists the output of the record processing to an Amazon S3 bucket in eu-north-1. The company uses the data in the S3 bucket as a data source for Amazon Athena.

The company wants to increase its global presence. A solutions architect must launch the data collection capabilities in the sa-east-1 and ap-northeast-1 Regions. The solutions architect deploys the application, the Kinesis data stream, and the Lambda functions in the two new Regions. The solutions architect keeps the S3 bucket in eu-north-1 to meet a requirement to centralize the data analysis.

During testing of the new setup, the solutions architect notices a significant lag on the arrival of data from the new Regions to the S3 bucket.

Which solution will improve this lag time the MOST?

Options:

A.

In each of the two new Regions, set up the Lambda functions to run in a VPC. Set up an S3 gateway endpoint in that VPC.

B.

Turn on S3 Transfer Acceleration on the S3 bucket in eu-north-1. Change the application to use the new S3 accelerated endpoint when the application uploads data to the S3 bucket.

C.

Create an S3 bucket in each of the two new Regions. Set the application in each new Region to upload to its respective S3 bucket. Set up S3 Cross-Region Replication to replicate data to the S3 bucket in eu-north-1.

D.

Increase the memory requirements of the Lambda functions to ensure that they have multiple cores available. Use the multipart upload feature when the application uploads data to Amazon S3 from Lambda.

Questions 107

A retail company is operating its ecommerce application on AWS. The application runs on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The company uses an Amazon RDS DB instance as the database backend. Amazon CloudFront is configured with one origin that points to the ALB. Static content is cached. Amazon Route 53 is used to host all public zones.

After an update of the application, the ALB occasionally returns a 502 status code (Bad Gateway) error. The root cause is malformed HTTP headers that are returned to the ALB. The webpage returns successfully when a solutions architect reloads the webpage immediately after the error occurs.

While the company is working on the problem, the solutions architect needs to provide a custom error page instead of the standard ALB error page to visitors.

Which combination of steps will meet this requirement with the LEAST amount of operational overhead? (Choose two.)

Options:

A.

Create an Amazon S3 bucket. Configure the S3 bucket to host a static webpage. Upload the custom error pages to Amazon S3.

A company consists of two separate business units. Each business unit has its own AWS account within a single organization in AWS Organizations. The business units regularly share sensitive documents with each other. To facilitate sharing, the company created an Amazon S3 bucket in each account and configured two-way replication between the S3 buckets. The S3 buckets have millions of objects.

Recently, a security audit identified that neither S3 bucket has encryption at rest enabled. Company policy requires that all documents must be stored with encryption at rest. The company wants to implement server-side encryption with Amazon S3 managed encryption keys (SSE-S3).

Options:

A.

Turn on SSE-S3 on both S3 buckets. Use S3 Batch Operations to copy and encrypt the objects in the same location.

B.

Create an AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) key in each account. Turn on server-side encryption with AWS KMS keys (SSE-KMS) on each S3 bucket by using the corresponding KMS key in that AWS account. Encrypt the existing objects by using an S3 copy command in the AWS CLI.

C.

Turn on SSE-S3 on both S3 buckets. Encrypt the existing objects by using an S3 copy command in the AWS CLI.

D.
