A company is developing a new on-demand video application that is based on microservices.The application will have 5 million users at launch and will have 30 million users after 6 months.The company has deployed the application on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) on AWS Fargate.The company developed the application by using ECS services that use the HTTPS protocol.A solutions architect needs to implement updates to the application by using blue/green deployments.The solution must distribute traffic to each ECS service through a load balancer.The application must automatically adjust the number of tasks in response to an Amazon CloudWatch alarm.Which solution will meet these requirements?Read More →

During an audit, a security team discovered that a development team was putting IAM user secret access keys in their code and then committing it to an AWSCodeCommit repository.The security team wants to automatically find and remediate instances of this security vulnerability.Which solution will ensure that the credentials are appropriately secured automatically?Read More →

A company’s public API runs as tasks on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS).The tasks run on AWS Fargate behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) and are configured with Service Auto Scaling for the tasks based on CPU utilization.This service has been running well for several months.Recently, API performance slowed down and made the application unusable.The company discovered that a significant number of SQL injection attacks had occurred against the API and that the API service had scaled to its maximum amount.A solutions architect needs to implement a solution that prevents SQL injection attacks from reaching the ECS API service.The solution must allow legitimate traffic through and must maximize operational efficiency.Which solution meets these requirements?Read More →

A company is migrating an application to the AWS Cloud.The application runs in an on-premises data center and writes thousands of images into a mounted NFS file system each night.After the company migrates the application, the company will host the application on an Amazon EC2 instance with a mounted AmazonElastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system.The company has established an AWS Direct Connect connection to AWS.Before the migration cutover, a solutions architect must build a process that will replicate the newly created on-premises images to the EFS file system.What is the MOST operationally efficient way to replicate the images?Read More →
