Question 1

A large company is using AWS Organizations to manage hundreds of AWS accounts across multiple AWS Regions. The company has turned on AWS Config throughout the organization.
The company requires all Amazon S3 buckets to block public read access. A SysOps administrator must generate a monthly report that shows all the S3 buckets and whether they comply with this requirement.
Which combination of steps should the SysOps administrator take to collect this data? {Select TWO).

A : Create an AWS Config aggregator in an aggregator account. Use the organization as the source. Retrieve the compliance data from the aggregator.

B : Create an AWS Config aggregator in each account. Use an S3 bucket in an aggregator account as the destination. Retrieve the compliance data from the S3 bucket

C : Edit the AWS Config policy in AWS Organizations. Use the organization's management account to turn on the s3-bucket-public-read-prohibited rule for the entire organization.

D : Use the AWS Config compliance report from the organization's management account. Filter the results by resource, and select Amazon S3.

E : Use the AWS Config API to apply the s3-bucket-public-read-prohibited rule in all accounts for all available Regions.

Answer: C,D

Question 2

A company has a high-performance Windows workload. The workload requires a storage volume that provides consistent performance of 10,000 IOPS. The company does not want to pay for additional unneeded capacity to achieve this performance.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST cost?

A : Use a Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1) Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume that is configured with 10,000 provisioned IOPS.

B : Use a General Purpose SSD (gp3) Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume that is configured with 10,000 provisioned IOPS.

C : Use an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system in Max I/O mode.

D : Use an Amazon FSx for Windows File Server file system that is configured with 10,000 IOPS.

Answer: B

Question 3

A company has deployed a web application in a VPC that has subnets in three Availability Zones. The company launches three Amazon EC2 instances from an
EC2 Auto Scaling group behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB).
A SysOps administrator notices that two of the EC2 instances are in the same Availability Zone, rather than being distributed evenly across all three Availability
Zones. There are no errors in the Auto Scaling group's activity history.
What is the MOST likely reason for the unexpected placement of EC2 instances?

A : One Availability Zone did not have sufficient capacity for the requested EC2 instance type.

B : The ALB was configured for only two Availability Zones.

C : The Auto Scaling group was configured for only two Availability Zones.

D : Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling randomly placed the instances in Availability Zones.

Answer: C

Question 4

An errant process is known to use an entire processor and run at 100%. A SysOps administrator wants to automate restarting the instance once the problem occurs for more than 2 minutes.
How can this be accomplished?

A : Create an Amazon CloudWatch alarm for the Amazon EC2 instance with basic monitoring. Enable an action to restart the instance.

B : Create a CloudWatch alarm for the EC2 instance with detailed monitoring. Enable an action to restart the instance.

C : Create an AWS Lambda function to restart the EC2 instance, triggered on a scheduled basis every 2 minutes.

D : Create a Lambda function to restart the EC2 instance, triggered by EC2 health checks.

Answer: B

Question 5

A company hosts a website on multiple Amazon EC2 instances that run in an Auto Scaling group. Users are reporting slow responses during peak times between
6 PM and 11 PM every weekend. A SysOps administrator must implement a solution to improve performance during these peak times.
What is the MOST operationally efficient solution that meets these requirements?

A : Create a scheduled Amazon EventBridge (Amazon CloudWatch Events) rule to invoke an AWS Lambda function to increase the desired capacity before peak times.

B : Configure a scheduled scaling action with a recurrence option to change the desired capacity before and after peak times.

C : Create a target tracking scaling policy to add more instances when memory utilization is above 70%.

D : Configure the cooldown period for the Auto Scaling group to modify desired capacity before and after peak times.
