Question 12

A DevOps Engineer uses Docker container technology to build an image-analysis application. The application often sees spikes in traffic. The Engineer must automatically scale the application in response to customer demand while maintaining cost effectiveness and minimizing any impact on availability.

What will allow the FASTEST response to spikes in traffic while fulfilling the other requirements?

Options:

Create an Amazon ECS cluster with the container instances in an Auto Scaling group. Configure the ECS service to use Service Auto Scaling. Set up Amazon CloudWatch alarms to scale the ECS service and cluster.

Deploy containers on an AWS Elastic Beanstalk Multicontainer Docker environment. Configure Elastic Beanstalk to automatically scale the environment based on Amazon CloudWatch metrics.

Create an Amazon ECS cluster using Spot instances. Configure the ECS service to use Service Auto Scaling. Set up Amazon CloudWatch alarms to scale the ECS service and cluster.

Deploy containers on Amazon EC2 instances. Deploy a container scheduler to schedule containers onto EC2 instances. Configure EC2 Auto Scaling for EC2 instances based on available Amazon CloudWatch metrics.

Question 13

You have decided that you need to change the instance type of your production instances which are running as part of an AutoScaling group. The entire architecture is deployed using CloudFormation Template. You currently have 4 instances in Production. You cannot have any interruption in service and need to ensure 2 instances are always runningduring the update? Which of the options below listed can be used for this?

Options:

AutoScalingRollingUpdate

AutoScalingScheduledAction

AutoScalingReplacingUpdate

AutoScalinglntegrationUpdate

Question 14

A company's application is currently deployed to a single AWS Region. Recently, the company opened a new office on a different continent. The users in the new office are experiencing high latency. The company's application runs on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) and uses Amazon DynamoDB as the database layer. The instances run in an EC2 Auto Scaling group across multiple Availability Zones. A DevOps Engineer is tasked with minimizing application response times and improving availability for users in both Regions.

Which combination of actions should be taken to address the latency issues? (Choose three.)

Options:

Create a new DynamoDB table in the new Region with cross-Region replication enabled.

Create new ALB and Auto Scaling group global resources and configure the new ALB to direct traffic to the new Auto Scaling group.

Create new ALB and Auto Scaling group resources in the new Region and configure the new ALB to direct traffic to the new Auto Scaling group.

Create Amazon Route 53 records, health checks, and latency-based routing policies to route to the ALB.

Create Amazon Route 53 aliases, health checks, and failover routing policies to route to the ALB.

Convert the DynamoDB table to a global table.

Question 15

A DevOps engineer is assisting with a multi-Region disaster recovery solution for a new application. The application consists of Amazon EC2 instances running in an Auto Scaling group and an Amazon Aurora MySQL DB cluster. The application must be available with an RTO of 120 minutes and an RPO of 60 minutes.

What is the MOST cost-effective way to meet these requirements?

Options:

Launch an Aurora DB cluster as an Aurora Replica in a different Region. Create an AWS CloudFormation template for all compute resources and create a stack in two Regions. Write a script that promotes the Aurora Replica to the primary instance in the event of a failure.

Launch an Aurora DB cluster as an Aurora Replica in a different Region and configure automatic cross-Region failover. Create an AWS CloudFormation template that includes an Auto Scaling group, and create a stack in two Regions. Write a script that updates the CloudFormation stack in the disaster recovery Region to increase the number of instances.

Use AWS Lambda to create and copy a snapshot of the Aurora DB cluster to the destination Region hourly. Create an AWS CloudFormation template that includes an Auto Scaling group, and create a stack in two Regions. Restore the Aurora DB cluster from a snapshot and update the Auto Scaling group to start launching instances.

Configure Amazon DynamoDB cross-Region replication. Create an AWS CloudFormation template that includes an Auto Scaling group, and create a stack in two Regions. Write a script that will update the CloudFormation stack in the disaster recovery Region and promote the DynamoDB replica to the primary instance in the event of a failure.
