A company uses a mobile app on AWS to run online contests.The company selects a winner at random at the end of each contest.The contests run for variable lengths of time.The company does not need to retain any data from a contest after the contest is finished.The company uses custom code that is hosted on Amazon EC2 instances to process the contest data and select a winner.The EC2 instances run behind an Application Load Balancer and store contest entries on Amazon RDS DB instances.The company must design a new architecture to reduce the cost of running the contests.Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?Read More →

A company provides a centralized Amazon EC2 application hosted in a single shared VPC.The centralized application must be accessible from client applications running in the VPCs of other business units.The centralized application front end is configured with a Network Load Balancer (NLB) for scalability.Up to 10 business unit VPCs will need to be connected to the shared VPC.Some of the business unit VPC CIDR blocks overlap with the shared VPC, and some overlap with each other Network connectivity to the centralized application in the shared VPC should be allowed from authorized business unit VPCs only.Which network configuration should a solutions architect use to provide connectivity from the client applications in the business unit VPCs to the centralized application in the shared VPC?Read More →

A company is migrating its blog platform to AWS.The company’s on-premises servers connect to AWS through an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection.The blog content is updated several times a day by multiple authors and is served from a file share on a network-attached storage (NAS) server.The company needs to migrate the blog platform without delaying the content updates.The company has deployed Amazon EC2 instances across multiple Availability Zones to run the blog platform behind an Application Load Balancer.The company also needs to move 200 TB of archival data from its on-premises servers to Amazon S3 as soon as possible.Which combination of stops will meet these requirements?

A company wants to use AWS for disaster recovery for an on-premises application.The company has hundreds of Windows-based servers that run the application.All the servers mount a common share.The company has an RTO of 15 minutes and an RPO of 5 minutes.The solution must support native failover and fallback capabilities.Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?Read More →

A company is planning to migrate to the AWS Cloud.The company hosts many applications on Windows servers and Linux servers.Some of the servers are physical, and some of the servers are virtual.The company uses several types of databases in its on-premises environment.The company does not have an accurate inventory of its on-premises servers and applications.The company wants to rightsize its resources during migration.A solutions architect needs to obtain information about the network connections and the application relationships.The solutions architect must assess the company’s current environment and develop a migration plan.Which solution will provide the solutions architect with the required information to develop the migration plan?Read More →

A company has developed a hybrid solution between its data center and AWS.The company uses Amazon VPC and Amazon EC2 instances that send application logs to Amazon CloudWatch.The EC2 instances read data from multiple relational databases that are hosted on premises.The company wants to monitor which EC2 instances are connected to the databases in near-real time.The company already has a monitoring solution that uses Splunk on premises.A solutions architect needs to determine how to send networking traffic to Splunk.How should the solutions architect meet these requirements?Read More →

A financial services company runs a complex, multi-tier application on Amazon EC2 instances and AWS Lambda functions.The application stores temporary data in Amazon S3.The S3 objects are valid for only 45 minutes and are deleted after 24 hours.The company deploys each version of the application by launching an AWS CloudFormation stack.The stack creates all resources that are required to run the application.When the company deploys and validates a new application version, the company deletes the CloudFormation stack of the old version.The company recently tried to delete the CloudFormation stack of an old application version, but the operation failed.An analysis shows that CloudFormation failed to delete an existing S3 bucket.A solutions architect needs to resolve this issue without making major changes to the application’s architecture.Which solution meets these requirements?Read More →

A company has an application that runs on Amazon EC2 instances in an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group.The company uses AWS CodePipeline to deploy the application.The instances that run in the Auto Scaling group are constantly changing because of scaling events.When the company deploys new application code versions, the company installs the AWS CodeDeploy agent on any new target EC2 instances and associates the instances with the CodeDeploy deployment group.The application is set to go live within the next 24 hours.What should a solutions architect recommend to automate the application deployment process with the LEAST amount of operational overhead?Read More →
