A company uses AWS Organizations to manage a multi-account structure. The company has hundreds of AWS accounts and expects the number of accounts to increase. The company is building a new application that uses Docker images. The company will push the Docker images to Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR). Only accounts that are within the company ' s organization should have
access to the images.
The company has a CI/CD process that runs frequently. The company wants to retain all the tagged images. However, the company wants to retain only the five most recent untagged images.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?
A company is running an application in the AWS Cloud. The application uses AWS Lambda functions and Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) containers that run with AWS Fargate technology as its primary compute. The load on the application is irregular. The application experiences long periods of no usage, followed by sudden and significant increases and decreases in traffic. The application is write-heavy and stores data in an Amazon Aurora MySQL database. The database runs on an Amazon RDS memory optimized DB instance that is not able to handle the load.
What is the MOST cost-effective way for the company to handle the sudden and significant changes in traffic?
A company manufactures smart vehicles. The company uses a custom application to collect vehicle data. The vehicles use the MQTT protocol to connect to the application.
The company processes the data in 5-minute intervals. The company then copies vehicle telematics data to on-premises storage. Custom applications analyze this data to detect anomalies.
The number of vehicles that send data grows constantly. Newer vehicles generate high volumes of data. The on-premises storage solution is not able to scale for peak traffic, which results in data loss. The company must modernize the solution and migrate the solution to AWS to resolve the scaling challenges.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?
A company is currently in the design phase of an application that will need an RPO of less than 5 minutes and an RTO of less than 10 minutes. The solutions architecture team is forecasting that the database will store approximately 10 TB of data. As part of the design, they are looking for a database solution that will provide the company with the ability to fail over to a secondary Region.
Which solution will meet these business requirements at the LOWEST cost?
A company is running several applications in the AWS Cloud. The applications are specific to separate business units in the company. The company is running the components of the applications in several AWS accounts that are in an organization in AWS Organizations. Every cloud resource in the company ' s organization has a tag that is named BusinessUnit. Every tag already has the appropriate value of the business unit name. The company needs to allocate its cloud costs to different business units. The company also needs to visualize the cloud costs for each business unit. Which solution will meet these requirements?
During an audit, a security team discovered that a development team was putting IAM user secret access keys in their code and then committing it to an AWS CodeCommit repository. The security team wants to automatically find and remediate instances of this security vulnerability.
Which solution will ensure that the credentials are appropriately secured automatically7
A financial company is planning to migrate its web application from on premises to AWS. The company uses a third-party security tool to monitor the inbound traffic to the application. The company has used the security tool for the last 15 years, and the tool has no cloud solutions available from its vendor. The company ' s security team is concerned about how to integrate the security tool with AWS technology.
The company plans to deploy the application migration to AWS on Amazon EC2 instances. The EC2 instances will run in an Auto Scaling group in a dedicated VPC. The company needs to use the security tool to inspect all packets that come in and out of the VPC. This inspection must occur in real time and must not affect the application ' s performance. A solutions architect must design a target architecture on AWS that is highly available within an AWS Region.
Which combination of steps should the solutions architect take to meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)
A company runs a simple Linux application on Amazon EKS by using nodes of the M6i (general purpose) instance type. The company has an EC2 Instance Savings Plan for the M6i family that will expire soon.
A solutions architect must minimize the EKS compute costs when the Savings Plan expires.
Which combination of steps will meet this requirement? (Select THREE.)
A company migrated to AWS and uses AWS Business Support. The company wants to monitor thecost-effectiveness of Amazon EC2 instances. The EC2 instances have tags for department, business unit, and environment. Development EC2 instances have high cost but low utilization.
The company needs to detect and stop any underutilized development EC2 instances. Instances are underutilized if they had 10% or less average CPU utilization and 5 MB or less network I/O for at least 4 of the past 14 days.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?
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 company ' s public API runs as tasks on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS). The tasks run on AWS Fargate behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) and are configured with Service Auto Scaling for the tasks based on CPU utilization. This service has been running well for several months.
Recently, API performance slowed down and made the application unusable. The company discovered that a significant number of SQL injection attacks had occurred against the API and that the API service had scaled to its maximum amount.
A solutions architect needs to implement a solution that prevents SQL injection attacks from reaching the ECS API service. The solution must allow legitimate traffic through and must maximize operational efficiency.
Which solution meets these requirements?
A company is migrating a document processing workload to AWS. The company has updated many applications to natively use the Amazon S3 API to store, retrieve, and modify documents that a processing server generates at a rate of approximately 5 documents every second. After the document processing is finished, customers can download the documents directly from Amazon S3.
During the migration, the company discovered that it could not immediately update the processing server that generates many documents to support the S3 API. The server runs on Linux and requires fast local access to the files that the server generates and modifies. When the server finishes processing, the files must be available to the public for download within 30 minutes.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST amount of effort?
A team collects and routes behavioral data for an entire company The company runs a Multi-AZ VPC environment with public subnets, private subnets, and in internet gateway Each public subnet also contains a NAT gateway Most of the company ' s applications read from and write to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams. Most of the workloads am in private subnets.
A solutions architect must review the infrastructure The solutions architect needs to reduce costs and maintain the function of the applications The solutions architect uses Cost Explorer and notices that the cost in the EC2-Other category is consistently high A further review shows that NatGateway-Bytes charges are increasing the cost in the EC2-Other category.
What should the solutions architect do to meet these requirements?
A company has millions of objects in an Amazon S3 bucket. The objects are in the S3 Standard storage class. All the S3 objects are accessed frequently. The number of users and applications that access the objects is increasing rapidly. The objects are encrypted with server-side encryption with AWS KMS Keys (SSE-KMS).
A solutions architect reviews the company ' s monthly AWS invoice and notices that AWS KMS costs are increasing because of the high number of requests from Amazon S3. The solutions architect needs to optimize costs with minimal changes to the application.
