Question 19

A company has an application behind a load balancer with enough Amazon EC2 instances to satisfy peak demand. Scripts and third-party deployment solutions are used to configure EC2 instances when demand increases or an instance fails. The team must periodically evaluate the utilization of the instance types to ensure that the correct sizes are deployed.
How can this workload be optimized to meet these requirements?

Correct Answer:D

Question 20

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. If the new function version has errors, another CLI script reverts by deploying the previous working version of the function. The company would like to decrease the time to deploy new versions of the application logic provided by the Lambda functions, and also reduce the time to detect and revert when errors are identified.
How can this be accomplished?

Correct Answer:B

Question 21

A Solutions Architect is designing a highly available and reliable solution for a cluster of Amazon EC2 instances.
The Solutions Architect must ensure that any EC2 instance within the cluster recovers automatically after a system failure. The solution must ensure that the recovered instance maintains the same IP address.
How can these requirements be met?

Correct Answer:B

Question 22

A company is migrating to the cloud. It wants to evaluate the configurations of virtual machines in its existing data center environment to ensure that it can size new Amazon EC2 instances accurately. The company wants to collect metrics, such as CPU, memory, and disk utilization, and it needs an inventory of what processes are running on each instance. The company would also like to monitor network connections to map communications between servers.
Which would enable the collection of this data MOST cost effectively?

Correct Answer:A

Question 23

An enterprise company is using a multi-account AWS strategy There are separate accounts tor development staging and production workloads To control costs and improve governance the following requirements have been defined:
• The company must be able to calculate the AWS costs tor each project
• The company must be able to calculate the AWS costs tor each environment development staging and production
• Commonly deployed IT services must be centrally managed
• Business units can deploy pre-approved IT services only
• Usage of AWS resources in the development account must be limited
Which combination of actions should be taken to meet these requirements? (Select THREE )

Correct Answer:CEF

Question 24

A company is moving a business-critical, multi-tier application to AWS. The architecture consists of a desktop client application and server infrastructure. The server infrastructure resides in an on-premises data center that frequently fails to maintain the application uptime SLA of 99.95%. A Solutions Architect must re-architect the application to ensure that it can meet or exceed the SLA.
The application contains a PostgreSQL database running on a single virtual machine. The business logic and presentation layers are load balanced between multiple virtual machines. Remote users complain about slow load times while using this latency-sensitive application.
Which of the following will meet the availability requirements with little change to the application while improving user experience and minimizing costs?

Correct Answer:B
