Question 142 - SAP-C02 discussion

Report
Export

A company has migrated an application from on premises to AWS. The application frontend is a static website that runs on two Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The application backend is a Python application that runs on three EC2 instances behind another ALB. The EC2 instances are large, general purpose On-Demand Instances that were sized to meet the on-premises specifications for peak usage of the application.

The application averages hundreds of thousands of requests each month. However, the application is used mainly during lunchtime and receives minimal traffic during the rest of the day.

A solutions architect needs to optimize the infrastructure cost of the application without negatively affecting the application availability.

Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

A.
Change all the EC2 instances to compute optimized instances that have the same number of cores as the existing EC2 instances.
Answers
A.
Change all the EC2 instances to compute optimized instances that have the same number of cores as the existing EC2 instances.
B.
Move the application frontend to a static website that is hosted on Amazon S3.
Answers
B.
Move the application frontend to a static website that is hosted on Amazon S3.
C.
Deploy the application frontend by using AWS Elastic Beanstalk. Use the same instance type for the nodes.

D.
Change all the backend EC2 instances to Spot Instances.
Answers
D.
Change all the backend EC2 instances to Spot Instances.
E.
Deploy the backend Python application to general purpose burstable EC2 instances that have the same number of cores as the existing EC2 instances.
Answers
E.
Deploy the backend Python application to general purpose burstable EC2 instances that have the same number of cores as the existing EC2 instances.
Suggested answer: B, D

Explanation:

Moving the application frontend to a static website that is hosted on Amazon S3 will save cost as S3 is cheaper than running EC2 instances.

Using Spot instances for the backend EC2 instances will also save cost, as they are significantly cheaper than On-Demand instances. This will be suitable for the application, as it has minimal traffic during the rest of the day, and the availability of spot instances will not negatively affect the application's availability.
