Amazon (SAP-C01) Exam Questions And Answers page 4

A company has a legacy application running on servers on premises. To increase the application s reliability, the company wants to gain actionable insights using application logs. A Solutions Architect has been given following requirements for the solution:
• Aggregate logs using AWS.
• Automate log analysis for errors.
• Notify the Operations team when errors go beyond a specified threshold.

What solution meets the requirements?
Designing highly available, cost-efficient, fault-tolerant, scalable systems Designing for security and compliance
A company has a media catalog with metadata for each item in the catalog. Different types of metadata are extracted from the media items by an application running on AWS Lambda. Metadata is extracted according to a number of rules with the output stored in an Amazon ElastiCache for Redis cluster. The extraction process is done in batches and takes around 40 minutes to complete.

The update process is triggered manually whenever the metadata extraction rules change.

The company wants to reduce the amount of time it takes to extract metadata from its media catalog. To achieve this, a solutions architect has split the single metadata extraction Lambda function into a Lambda function for each type of metadata.

Which additional steps should the solutions architect take to meet the requirements?
Designing highly available, cost-efficient, fault-tolerant, scalable systems Designing for security and compliance
A company has a Microsoft SQL Server database in its data center and plans to migrate data to Amazon Aurora MySQL. The company has already used the AWS Schema Conversion Tool to migrate triggers, stored procedures and other schema objects to Aurora MySQL. The database contains 1 TB of data and grows less than 1 MB per day. The company s data center is connected to AWS through a dedicated 1Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection.

The company would like to migrate data to Aurora MySQL and perform reconfigurations with minimal downtime to the applications.

Which solution meets the company s requirements?
Migrating complex, multi-tier applications on AWS Designing enterprise-wide scalable operations on AWS
A company has an Amazon EC2 deployment that has the following architecture:
• An application tier that contains 8 m4.xlarge instances
• A Classic Load Balancer
• Amazon S3 as a persistent data store

After one of the EC2 instances fails, users report very slow processing of their requests. A Solutions Architect must recommend design changes to maximize system reliability. The solution must minimize costs.

What should the Solutions Architect recommend?
Designing highly available, cost-efficient, fault-tolerant, scalable systems Designing enterprise-wide scalable operations on AWS
A company has an Amazon VPC that is divided into a public subnet and a private subnet. A web application runs in Amazon VPC, and each subnet has its own NACL. The public subnet has a CIDR of 10.0.0.0/24. An Application Load Balancer is deployed to the public subnet. The private subnet has a CIDR of 10.0.1.0/24. Amazon EC2 instances that run a web server on port 80 are launched into the private subnet.

Only network traffic that is required for the Application Load Balancer to access the web application can be allowed to travel between the public and private subnets.

What collection of rules should be written to ensure that the private subnet s NACL meets the requirement? (Choose two.)
Designing highly available, cost-efficient, fault-tolerant, scalable systems Designing enterprise-wide scalable operations on AWS
A company has an application behind a load balancer with enough Amazon EC2 instances to satisfy peak demand. Scripts and third-party deployment solutions are used to configure EC2 instances when demand increases or an instance fails. The team must periodically evaluate the utilization of the instance types to ensure that the correct sizes are deployed.

How can this workload be optimized to meet these requirements?
Designing highly available, cost-efficient, fault-tolerant, scalable systems Designing enterprise-wide scalable operations on AWS
A company has an application that generates a weather forecast that is updated every 15 minutes with an output resolution of 1 billion unique positions, each approximately 20 bytes in size (20 Gigabytes per forecast). Every hour, the forecast data is globally accessed approximately 5 million times (1,400 requests per second), and up to 10 times more during weather events. The forecast data is overwritten every update. Users of the current weather forecast application expect responses to queries to be returned in less than two seconds for each request.

Which design meets the required request rate and response time?
Designing highly available, cost-efficient, fault-tolerant, scalable systems Designing enterprise-wide scalable operations on AWS
A company has an application that generates reports and stores them in an Amazon bucket Amazon S3 bucket. When a user accesses their report, the application generates a signed URL to allow the user to download the report. The company s security team has discovered that the files are public and that anyone can download them without authentication. The company has suspended the generation of new reports until the problem is resolved.

Which set of action will immediately remediate the security issue without impacting the application s normal workflow?
Designing for security and compliance
A company has an application that runs a web service on Amazon EC2 instances and stores .jpg images in Amazon S3. The web traffic has a predictable baseline, but often demand spikes unpredictably for short periods of time. The application is loosely coupled and stateless. The .jpg images stored in Amazon S3 are accessed frequently for the first 15 to 20 days, they are seldom accessed thereafter but always need to be immediately available. The CIO has asked to find ways to reduce costs.

Which of the following options will reduce costs? (Choose two.)
Designing highly available, cost-efficient, fault-tolerant, scalable systems Implementing cost control strategies
A company has an application that runs on a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances and stores 70 GB of device data for each instance in Amazon S3. Recently, some of the S3 uploads have been failing. At the same time, the company is seeing an unexpected increase in storage data costs. The application code cannot be modified.

What is the MOST efficient way to upload the device data to Amazon S3 while managing storage costs?
Implementing cost control strategies Designing for security and compliance
