Correct Answer: A


Question 8:

A Solutions Architect is designing the architecture for a new three-tier web-based e-commerce site that must be available 24/7. Requests are expected to range from 100 to 10,000 each minute. Usage can vary depending on time of day, holidays, and promotions. The design should be able to handle these volumes, with the ability to handle higher volumes if necessary. How should the Architect design the architecture to ensure the web tier is cost-optimized and can handle the expected traffic? (Select two.)

A. Launch Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group behind an ELB.

B. Store all static files in a multi-AZ Amazon Aurora database.

C. Create an CloudFront distribution pointing to static content in Amazon S3.

D. Use Amazon Route 53 to route traffic to the correct region.

E. Use Amazon S3 multi-part uploads to improve upload times.

Correct Answer: AC


Question 9:

A popular e-commerce application runs on AWS. The application encounters performance issues. The database is unable to handle the amount of queries and load during peak times. The database is running on the RDS Aurora engine on

the largest instance size available.

What should an administrator do to improve performance?

A. Convert the database to Amazon Redshift.

B. Create a CloudFront distribution.

C. Convert the database to use EBS Provisioned IOPS.

D. Create one or more read replicas.

Correct Answer: C


Question 10:

A Solution Architect is designing a three-tier web application. The Architect wants to restrict access to the database tier to accept traffic from the application servers only. However, these application servers are in an Auto Scaling group and may vary in quantity.

How should the Architect configure the database servers to meet the requirements?

A. Configure the database security group to allow database traffic from the application server IP addresses.

B. Configure the database security group to allow database traffic from the application server security group.

C. Configure the database subnet network ACL to deny all inbound non-database traffic from the application-tier subnet.

D. Configure the database subnet network ACL to allow inbound database traffic from the application-tier subnet.

Correct Answer: C


Question 11:

A call center application consists of a three-tier application using Auto Scaling groups to automatically scale resources as needed. Users report that every morning at 9:00 AM the system becomes very slow for about 15 minutes. A Solution Architect determines that a large percentage of the call center staff starts work at 9:00 AM, so Auto Scaling does not have enough time to scale out to meet demand.

How can the Architect fix the problem?

A. Change the Auto Scaling group\’s scale out event to scale based on network utilization.

B. Create an Auto Scaling scheduled action to scale out the necessary resources at 8:30 AM every morning.

C. Use Reserved Instances to ensure the system has reserved the right amount of capacity for the scale-up events.

D. Permanently keep a steady state of instances that is needed at 9:00 AM to guarantee available resources, but leverage Spot Instances.

Correct Answer: A


Question 12:

An e-commerce application is hosted in AWS. The last time a new product was launched, the application experienced a performance issue due to an enormous spike in traffic. Management decided that capacity must be doubled the week after the product is launched.

Which is the MOST efficient way for management to ensure that capacity requirements are met?

A. Add a Step Scaling policy.

B. Add a Dynamic Scaling policy.

C. Add a Scheduled Scaling action.

D. Add Amazon EC2 Spot Instances.

Correct Answer: B


Question 13:

A Solution Architect is designing an application that uses Amazon EBS volumes. The volumes must be backed up to a different region. How should the Architect meet this requirement?

A. Create EBS snapshots directly from one region to another.

B. Move the data to an Amazon S3 bucket and enable cross-region replication.

C. Create EBS snapshots and then copy them to the desired region.

D. Use a script to copy data from the current Amazon EBS volume to the destination Amazon EBS volume.

Correct Answer: C


Question 14:

A company is using an Amazon S3 bucket located in us-west-2 to serve videos to their customers. Their customers are located all around the world and the videos are requested a lot during peak hours. Customers in Europe complain about

experiencing slow downloaded speeds, and during peak hours, customers in all locations report experiencing HTTP 500 errors.

A. Place an elastic load balancer in front of the Amazon S3 bucket to distribute the load during peak hours.

B. Cache the web content with Amazon CloudFront and use all Edge locations for content delivery.
