List of questions
Question 171

A huge gaming firm is developing a centralized method for storing the status of various online games' user sessions. The workload requires low-latency key-value storage and will consist of an equal number of reads and writes. Across the games' geographically dispersed user base, data should be written to the AWS Region nearest to the user. The design should reduce the burden associated with managing data replication across Regions.
Which solution satisfies these criteria?
Explanation:
https://aws.amazon.com/dynamodb/?nc1=h_ls
Question 172

A business's production databases are housed on a 3 TB Amazon Aurora MySQL DB cluster. The database cluster is installed in the region us-east-1. For disaster recovery (DR) requirements, the company's database expert needs to fast deploy the DB cluster in another AWS Region to handle the production load with an RTO of less than two hours.
Which approach is the MOST OPERATIONALLY EFFECTIVE in meeting these requirements?
Explanation:
RTO is 2 hours. With 3 TB database, cross-region replica is a better option
Question 173

A business's production database is hosted on a single-node Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instance. The database instance is hosted in a United States AWS Region.
A week before a significant sales event, a fresh database maintenance update is released. The maintenance update has been designated as necessary. The firm want to minimize the database instance's downtime and requests that a database expert make the database instance highly accessible until the sales event concludes.

Question 174

A corporation intends to migrate a 500-GB Oracle database to Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL utilizing the AWS Schema Conversion Tool (AWS SCT) and AWS Data Management Service (AWS DMS). The database does not have any stored procedures, but does contain several huge or partitioned tables.
Because the program is vital to the company, it is preferable to migrate with little downtime.
Which measures should a database professional perform in combination to expedite the transfer process? (Select three.)
Explanation:
Question 175

A business need a data warehouse system that stores data consistently and in a highly organized fashion. The organization demands rapid response times for end-user inquiries including current-year data, and users must have access to the whole 15-year dataset when necessary. Additionally, this solution must be able to manage a variable volume of incoming inquiries. Costs associated with storing the 100 TB of data must be maintained to a minimum.
Which solution satisfies these criteria?
Explanation:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/concurrency-scaling.html
"With the Concurrency Scaling feature, you can support virtually unlimited concurrent users and concurrent queries, with consistently fast query performance. When concurrency scaling is enabled, Amazon Redshift automatically adds additional cluster capacity when you need it to process an increase in concurrent read queries. Write operations continue as normal on your main cluster. Users always see the most current data, whether the queries run on the main cluster or on a concurrency scaling cluster. You're charged for concurrency scaling clusters only for the time they're in use. For more information about pricing, see Amazon Redshift pricing. You manage which queries are sent to the concurrency scaling cluster by configuring WLM queues. When you enable concurrency scaling for a queue, eligible queries are sent to the concurrency scaling cluster instead of waiting in line."
Question 176

A business is transferring its on-premises database workloads to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud. A database professional migrating an Oracle database with a huge table to Amazon RDS has picked AWS DMS. The database professional observes that AWS DMS is consuming considerable time migrating the data.
Which activities would increase the pace of data migration? (Select three.)
Explanation:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dms/latest/userguide/CHAP_Tasks.LOBSupport.html
Question 177

An internet advertising firm stores its data in an Amazon DynamoDb table. Amazon DynamoDB Streams are enabled on the table, and one of the keys has a global secondary index. The table is encrypted using a customer-managed AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) key.
The firm has chosen to grow worldwide and want to duplicate the database using DynamoDB global tables in a new AWS Region.
An administrator observes the following upon review:
No role with the dynamodb: CreateGlobalTable permission exists in the account.
An empty table with the same name exists in the new Region where replication is desired.
A global secondary index with the same partition key but a different sort key exists in the new Region where replication is desired.
Which settings will prevent you from creating a global table or replica in the new Region? (Select two.)
Explanation:
Question 178

In North America, a business launched a mobile game that swiftly expanded to 10 million daily active players. The game's backend is hosted on AWS and makes considerable use of a TTL-configured Amazon DynamoDB table.
When an item is added or changed, its TTL is set to 600 seconds plus the current epoch time. The game logic is reliant on the purging of outdated data in order to compute rewards points properly. At times, items from the table are read that are many hours beyond their TTL expiration.
How should a database administrator resolve this issue?

Question 179

On a single Amazon RDS DB instance, a business hosts a MySQL database for its ecommerce application. Automatically saving application purchases to the database results in high-volume writes. Employees routinely create purchase reports for the company. The organization wants to boost database performance and minimize downtime associated with upgrade patching.
Which technique will satisfy these criteria with the LEAST amount of operational overhead?
Explanation:
Question 180

A worldwide digital advertising corporation collects browser information in order to provide targeted visitors with contextually relevant pictures, websites, and connections. A single page load may create many events, each of which must be kept separately. A single event may have a maximum size of 200 KB and an average size of 10 KB. Each page load requires a query of the user's browsing history in order to deliver suggestions for targeted advertising. The advertising corporation anticipates daily page views of more than 1 billion from people in the United States, Europe, Hong Kong, and Indi a. The information structure differs according to the event. Additionally, browsing information must be written and read with a very low latency to guarantee that consumers have a positive viewing experience.
