Does an AWS Direct Connect location provide access to Amazon Web Services in the region it is associated with as well as access to other US regions?

No, it provides access only to the region it is associated with.
No, it provides access only to the region it is associated with.
No, it provides access only to the US regions other than the region it is associated with.
No, it provides access only to the US regions other than the region it is associated with.
Yes, it provides access.
Yes, it provides access.
Yes, it provides access but only when there's just one Availability Zone in the region.
Yes, it provides access but only when there's just one Availability Zone in the region.
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

An AWS Direct Connect location provides access to Amazon Web Services in the region it is associated with, as well as access to other US regions. For example, you can provision a single connection to any AWS Direct Connect location in the US and use it to access public AWS services in all US Regions and AWS GovCloud (US).

A financial services company logs personally identifiable information to its application logs stored in Amazon S3. Due to regulatory compliance requirements, the log files must be encrypted at rest. The security team has mandated that the company’s on-premises hardware security modules (HSMs) be used to generate the CMK material.

Which steps should the solutions architect take to meet these requirements?

Create an AWS CloudHSM cluster. Create a new CMK in AWS KMS using AWS_CloudHSM as the source for the key material and an origin of AWS_CLOUDHSM. Enable automatic key rotation on the CMK with a duration of 1 year. Configure a bucket policy on the logging bucket that disallows uploads of unencrypted data and requires that the encryption source be AWS KMS.

Provision an AWS Direct Connect connection, ensuring there is no overlap of the RFC 1918 address space between onpremises hardware and the VPCs. Configure an AWS bucket policy on the logging bucket that requires all objects to be encrypted. Configure the logging application to query the on-premises HSMs from the AWS environment for the encryption key material, and create a unique CMK for each logging event.

A scientific company needs to process text and image data from an Amazon S3 bucket. The data is collected from several radar stations during a live, time-critical phase of a deep space mission. The radar stations upload the data to the source S3 bucket. The data is prefixed by radar station identification number.

The company created a destination S3 bucket in a second account. Data must be copied from the source S3 bucket to the destination S3 bucket to meet a compliance objective. The replication occurs through the use of an S3 replication rule to cover all objects in the source S3 bucket.

One specific radar station is identified as having the most accurate data. Data replication at this radar station must be monitored for completion within 30 minutes after the radar station uploads the objects to the source S3 bucket. What should a solutions architect do to meet these requirements?

Set up an AWS DataSync agent to replicate the prefixed data from the source S3 bucket to the destination S3 bucket. Select to use all available bandwidth on the task, and monitor the task to ensure that it is in the TRANSFERRING status. Create an Amazon EventBridge (Amazon CloudWatch Events) rule to trigger an alert if this status changes.

A financial company is building a system to generate monthly, immutable bank account statements for its users. Statements are stored in Amazon S3. Users should have immediate access to their monthly statements for up to 2 years. Some users access their statements frequently, whereas others rarely access their statements. The company’s security and compliance policy requires that the statements be retained for at least 7 years. What is the MOST cost-effective solution to meet the company’s needs?

A company is having issues with a newly deployed serverless infrastructure that uses Amazon API Gateway, Amazon Lambda, and Amazon DynamoDB. In a steady state, the application performs as expected. However, during peak load, tens of thousands of simultaneous invocations are needed and user requests fail multiple times before succeeding. The company has checked the logs for each component, focusing specifically on Amazon CloudWatch Logs for Lambda. There are no errors logged by the services or applications. What might cause this problem?

Lambda has very low memory assigned, which causes the function to fail at peak load.
Lambda has very low memory assigned, which causes the function to fail at peak load.
Lambda is in a subnet that uses a NAT gateway to reach out of the internet, and the function instance does not have sufficient Amazon EC2 resources in the VPC to scale with the load.

A company is running an application on several Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group behind an Application Load Balancer. The load on the application varies throughout the day, and EC2 instances are scaled in and out on a regular basis.
