A company uses Amazon RDS for Microsoft SQL Server as its primary database. They need high availability within and across AWS Regions, with an RPO < 1 min and RTO < 10 min. Route 53 CNAME is used for the DB endpoint and must redirect to standby during failover.
Which solution meets these requirements?
A company recently launched multiple applications that use Application Load Balancers. Application response time often slows down when the applications experience problems A DevOps engineer needs to Implement a monitoring solution that alerts the company when the applications begin to perform slowly The DevOps engineer creates an Amazon Simple Notification Semce (Amazon SNS) topic and subscribe the company ' s email address to the topic
What should the DevOps engineer do next to meet the requirements?
A company uses Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) with an Amazon EC2 launch type. The company requires all log data to be centralized on Amazon CloudWatch. The company ' s ECS tasks include a LogConfiguration object that specifies a value of awslogs for the log driver name.
The company ' s ECS tasks failed to deploy. An error message indicates that a missing permission causes the failure. The company confirmed that the IAM role used to launch container instances includes the logs:CreateLogGroup, logs:CreateLogStream, and logs:PutLogEvents permissions.
Which solution will fix the problem?
A company ' s application development team uses Linux-based Amazon EC2 instances as bastion hosts. Inbound SSH access to the bastion hosts is restricted to specific IP addresses, as defined in the associated security groups. The company ' s security team wants to receive a notification if the security group rules are modified to allow SSH access from any IP address.
What should a DevOps engineer do to meet this requirement?
A DevOps team incorporates automatic load and stress testing capabilities into a CI/CD pipeline by using AWS CodeBuild. The DevOps team uses an Amazon Aurora MySQL DB cluster in a testing environment to perform load testing. The DevOps team set the minimum capacity for the testing DB cluster to 1. The DevOps team uses 10 DB clusters in a production environment. The DevOps team has set all the DB clusters to automatically scale up to a maximum capacity of 15 Aurora Replicas.
When the DevOps team performs load testing, the configuration of the Aurora DB cluster in the testing environment prevents the cluster from scaling rapidly enough to meet the transient demand, which causes load testing to fail.
The DevOps team must configure the DB cluster in the testing environment to meet the load-testing demand.
Which solution will meet this requirement MOST cost-effectively?
A DevOps engineer is creating an AWS CloudFormation template to deploy a web service. The web service will run on Amazon EC2 instances in a private subnet behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The DevOps engineer must ensure that the service can accept requests from clients that have IPv6 addresses.
What should the DevOps engineer do with the CloudFormation template so that IPv6 clients can access the web service?
A company has a search application that has a web interface. The company uses Amazon CloudFront, Application Load Balancers (ALBs), and Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group with a desired capacity of 3. The company uses prebaked AMIs. The application starts in 1 minute. The application queries an Amazon OpenSearch Service cluster. The application is deployed to multiple Availability Zones. Because of compliance requirements, the application needs to have a disaster recovery (DR) environment in a separate AWS Region. The company wants to minimize the ongoing cost of the DR environment and requires an RTO and an RPO of under 30 minutes. The company has created an ALB in the DR Region. Which solution will meet these requirements?
A DevOps engineer is setting up a container-based architecture. The engineer has decided to use AWS CloudFormation to automatically provision an Amazon ECS cluster and an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group to launch the EC2 container instances. After successfully creating the CloudFormation stack, the engineer noticed that, even though the ECS cluster and the EC2 instances were created successfully and the stack finished the creation, the EC2 instances were associating with a different cluster.
How should the DevOps engineer update the CloudFormation template to resolve this issue?
An ecommerce company has chosen AWS to host its new platform. The company ' s DevOps team has started building an AWS Control Tower landing zone. The DevOps team has set the identity store within AWS IAM Identity Center (AWS Single Sign-On) to external identity provider (IdP) and has configured SAML 2.0.
The DevOps team wants a robust permission model that applies the principle of least privilege. The model must allow the team to build and manage only the team ' s own resources.
Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Choose three.)
A company recently migrated its application to an Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) cluster that uses Amazon EC2 instances. The company configured the application to automatically scale based on CPU utilization.
The application produces memory errors when it experiences heavy loads. The application also does not scale out enough to handle the increased load. The company needs to collect and analyze memory metrics for the application over time.
Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Select THREE.)
