A financial services organization maintains a web application that is accessible to users in the United States and Europe. The program is divided into two tiers: a database layer and a web server layer. The database tier is comprised of a MySQL database that is physically located in us-east-1. Amazon Route 53 geoproximity routing is used to route traffic to the nearest Region's instances. According to a performance analysis of the system, European users are not obtaining the same degree of query performance as users in the United States.
Which improvements to the database layer should be made to increase performance? Migrate the database to Amazon RDS for MySQL. Configure Multi-AZ in one of the European Regions. Migrate the database to Amazon DynamoDB. Use DynamoDB global tables to enable replication to additional Regions. Deploy MySQL instances in each Region. Deploy an Application Load Balancer in front of MySQL to reduce the load on the primary instance. Migrate the database to an Amazon Aurora global database in MySQL compatibility mode. Configure read replicas in one of the European Regions.
A solutions architect is developing a solution that will lead customers to a backup static error page in the event that the original website becomes inaccessible. The DNS records for the major website are housed on Amazon Route 53, with the domain referring to an Application Load Balancer (ALB).
Which configuration should the solutions architect use in order to fulfill the business's requirements while reducing modifications and infrastructure overhead? Point a Route 53 alias record to an Amazon CloudFront distribution with the ALB as one of its origins. Then, create custom error pages for the distribution. Set up a Route 53 active-passive failover configuration. Direct traffic to a static error page hosted within an Amazon S3 bucket when Route 53 health checks determine that the ALB endpoint is unhealthy. Update the Route 53 record to use a latency-based routing policy. Add the backup static error page hosted within an Amazon S3 bucket to the record so the traffic is sent to the most responsive endpoints. Set up a Route 53 active-active configuration with the ALB and an Amazon EC2 instance hosting a static error page as endpoints. Route 53 will only send requests to the instance if the health checks fail for the ALB.
A business notices a rise in the cost of Amazon EC2 in its most recent bill. The billing team observes an anomaly in the vertical scaling of instance types for a few EC2 instances. A solutions architect should build a graph comparing the previous two months' EC2 charges and conduct an in-depth study to determine the core cause of the vertical scaling.
How should the solutions architect create data with the LEAST amount of operational overhead possible? Use AWS Budgets to create a budget report and compare EC2 costs based on instance types. Use Cost Explorerג€™s granular filtering feature to perform an in-depth analysis of EC2 costs based on instance types. Use graphs from the AWS Billing and Cost Management dashboard to compare EC2 costs based on instance types for the last 2 months. Use AWS Cost and Usage Reports to create a report and send it to an Amazon S3 bucket. Use Amazon QuickSight with Amazon S3 as a source to generate an interactive graph based on instance types.
On AWS, a business hosts an online marketplace web application. During peak hours, the program serves hundreds of thousands of users. The business requires a scalable, near-real-time solution for sharing information about millions of financial transactions with various other internal systems. Additionally, transactions must be processed to remove sensitive data prior to being stored in a document database for fast retrieval.
What recommendations should a solutions architect make to satisfy these requirements? Store the transactions data into Amazon DynamoDB. Set up a rule in DynamoDB to remove sensitive data from every transaction upon write. Use DynamoDB Streams to share the transactions data with other applications. Stream the transactions data into Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to store data in Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon S3. Use AWS Lambda integration with Kinesis Data Firehose to remove sensitive data. Other applications can consume the data stored in Amazon S3. Stream the transactions data into Amazon Kinesis Data Streams. Use AWS Lambda integration to remove sensitive data from every transaction and then store the transactions data in AmazonDynamoDB. Other applications can consume the transactions data off the Kinesis data stream. Store the batched transactions data in Amazon S3 as files. Use AWS Lambda to process every file and remove sensitive data before updating the files in Amazon S3. The Lambda function then stores the data in Amazon DynamoDB. Other applications can consume transaction files stored in Amazon S3.
A business is developing a new online service that will be hosted on Amazon EC2 instances with the assistance of an Elastic Load Balancer. However, many online service clients can only communicate with IP addresses that have been whitelisted on their firewalls.

An Application Load Balancer with an associated Elastic IP address An A record in an Amazon Route 53 hosted zone pointing to an Elastic IP address An EC2 instance with a public IP address running as a proxy in front of the load balancer.
A business may have many AWS accounts for different departments. One of the departments would want to share an Amazon S3 bucket with the rest of the organization.
Which of the following solutions requires the LEAST amount of effort? Enable cross-account S3 replication for the bucket. Create a pre-signed URL for the bucket and share it with other departments. Set the S3 bucket policy to allow cross-account access to other departments. Create IAM users for each of the departments and configure a read-only IAM policy.
A business hosts a web application on Amazon Web Services (AWS) utilizing a single Amazon EC2 instance that saves user-uploaded documents in an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume. To improve scalability and availability, the organization replicated the architecture and deployed a second EC2 instance and EBS volume in a different Availability Zone, both of which were placed behind an Application Load Balancer. After this update was made, users claimed that each time they refreshed the page, they could view a portion of their papers but never all of them.
What should a solutions architect suggest to guarantee that users have access to all of their documents simultaneously? Copy the data so both EBS volumes contain all the documents. Configure the Application Load Balancer to direct a user to the server with the documents. Copy the data from both EBS volumes to Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS). Modify the application to save new documents to Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS). Configure the Application Load Balancer to send the request to both servers. Return each document from the correct server.
A solutions architect is in the process of implementing a distributed database across many Amazon EC2 instances. The database replicates all data across numerous instances to ensure that it can survive the loss of single instance. The database needs block storage that is low in latency and high in throughput in order to accommodate several million transactions per second per server.
Which storage option should the architect of solutions use? EBS Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) Amazon EC2 instance store Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) Amazon S3.
A three-tier web application is used to handle client orders. The web tier is made up of Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer, a middle tier made up of three EC2 instances that are isolated from the web layer through Amazon SQS, and an Amazon DynamoDB backend. During busy periods, consumers who place purchases through the site must wait much longer than usual for confirmations owing to prolonged processing delays. A solutions architect's objective should be to minimize these processing times.
Which course of action will be the MOST EFFECTIVE in achieving this? Replace the SQS queue with Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose. Use Amazon ElastiCache for Redis in front of the DynamoDB backend tier. Add an Amazon CloudFront distribution to cache the responses for the web tier. Use Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling to scale out the middle tier instances based on the SQS queue depth.
A solutions architect is developing a solution that will need frequent modifications to a website hosted on Amazon S3 with versioning enabled. Due to compliance requirements, older versions of the objects will be seldom accessed and will need to be removed after two years.
What should the solutions architect propose as the CHEAPEST way to achieve these requirements? Use S3 batch operations to replace object tags. Expire the objects based on the modified tags. Configure an S3 Lifecycle policy to transition older versions of objects to S3 Glacier. Expire the objects after 2 years. Enable S3 Event Notifications on the bucket that sends older objects to the Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue for further processing. Replicate older object versions to a new bucket. Use an S3 Lifecycle policy to expire the objects in the new bucket after 2 years.
