A company recently deployed a new application that runs on a group of Amazon EC2 Linux instances in a VPC In a peered VPC the company launched an EC2 Linux instance that serves as a bastion host The security group of the application instances allows access only on TCP port 22 from the private IP of the bastion host The security group of the bastion host allows access to TCP port 22 from 0 0 0.0/0 so that system administrators can use SSH to remotely log in to the application instances from several branch offices
While looking through operating system logs on the bastion host, a cloud engineer notices thousands of failed SSH logins to the bastion host from locations around the world The cloud engineer wants to change how remote access is granted to the application instances and wants to meet the following requirements:
• Eliminate brute-force SSH login attempts
• Retain a log of commands run during an SSH session
• Retain the ability to forward ports
Which solution meets these requirements for remote access to the application instances?
Correct Answer:A
"Session Manager removes the need to open inbound ports, manage SSH keys, or use bastion hosts" Ref: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/session-manager.html

A company deploys a new web application As part of the setup, the company configures AWS WAF to log to Amazon S3 through Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose. The company develops an Amazon Athena query that runs once daily to return AWS WAF log data from the previous 24 hours. The volume of daily logs is constant However over time, the same query is taking more time to run
A solutions architect needs to design a solution to prevent the query time from continuing to increase. The solution must minimize operational overhead
Which solution will meet these requirements?

A company is running an application in the AWS Cloud. The application runs on containers in an Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) cluster. The ECS tasks use the Fargate launch type. The application's data is relational and is stored in Amazon Aurora MySQL. To meet regulatory requirements, the application must be able to recover to a separate AWS Region in the event of an application failure. In case of a failure, no data can be lost. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST amount of operational overhead?
Correct Answer:B
