A company’s application runs on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB).The instances run in an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group across multiple Availability Zones.On the first day of every month at midnight, the application becomes much slower when the month-end financial calculation batch runs.This causes the CPU utilization of the EC2 instances to immediately peak to 100%, which disrupts the application.What should a solutions architect recommend to ensure the application is able to handle the workload and avoid downtime?Read More →

A company hosts its static website by using Amazon S3.The company wants to add a contact form to its webpage.The contact form will have dynamic server-side components for users to input their name, email address, phone number, and user message.The company anticipates that there will be fewer than 100 site visits each month.Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?Read More →

A research company runs experiments that are powered by a simulation application and a visualization application.The simulation application runs on Linux and outputs intermediate data to an NFS share every 5 minutes.The visualization application is a Windows desktop application that displays the simulation output and requires an SMB file system.The company maintains two synchronized file systems.This strategy is causing data duplication and inefficient resource usage.The company needs to migrate the applications to AWS without making code changes to either application.Which solution will meet these requirements?Read More →

A rapidly growing ecommerce company is running its workloads in a single AWS Region.A solutions architect must create a disaster recovery (DR) strategy that includes a different AWS Region.The company wants its database to be up to date in the DR Region with the least possible latency.The remaining infrastructure in the DR Region needs to run at reduced capacity and must be able to scale up if necessary.Which solution will meet these requirements with the LOWEST recovery time objective (RTO)?Read More →

A company’s facility has badge readers at every entrance throughout the building.When badges are scanned, the readers send a message over HTTPS to indicate who attempted to access that particular entrance.A solutions architect must design a system to process these messages from the sensors.The solution must be highly available, and the results must be made available for the company’s security team to analyze.Which system architecture should the solutions architect recommend?Read More →

A company has multiple AWS accounts for development work.Some staff consistently use oversized Amazon EC2 instances, which causes the company to exceed the yearly budget for the development accounts.The company wants to centrally restrict the creation of AWS resources in these accounts.Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST development effort?Read More →

A company has an application that processes customer orders.The company hosts the application on an Amazon EC2 instance that saves the orders to an Amazon Aurora database.Occasionally when traffic is high the workload does not process orders fast enough.What should a solutions architect do to write the orders reliably to the database as quickly as possible?Read More →

A company hosts an application used to upload files to an Amazon S3 bucket.Once uploaded, the files are processed to extract metadata, which takes less than 5 seconds.The volume and frequency of the uploads varies from a few files each hour to hundreds of concurrent uploads.The company has asked a solutions architect to design a cost-effective architecture that will meet these requirements.What should the solutions architect recommend?Read More →
