A company's application on EC2 instances relies on a Single-AZ RDS for MySQL DB instance. The SysOps administrator needs to ensure failover to minimize downtime.
A SysOps administrator creates two VPCs, VPC1 and VPC2, in a company's AWS account The SysOps administrator deploys a Linux Amazon EC2 instance in VPC1 and deploys an Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instance in VPC2. The DB instance is deployed in a private subnet. An application that runs on the EC2 instance needs to connect to the database. What should the SysOps administrator do to give the EC2 instance the ability to connect to the database?
A company needs to monitor the disk utilization of Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes The EBS volumes are attached to Amazon EC2 Linux Instances A SysOps administrator must set up an Amazon CloudWatch alarm that provides an alert when disk utilization increases to more than 80%. Which combination of steps must the SysOps administrator lake lo meet these requirements? (Select THREE.)
A company uses AWS CloudFormation to manage a stack of Amazon EC2 instances on AWS. A SysOps administrator needs to keep the instances and all of the instances' data, even if someone deletes the stack. Which solution will meet these requirements?
A SysOps administrator is optimizing the cost of a workload. The workload is running in multiple AWS Regions and is using AWS Lambda with Amazon EC2 On-Demand Instances for the compute. The overall usage is predictable. The amount of compute that is consumed in each Region varies, depending on the users' locations. Which approach should the SysOps administrator use to optimize this workload?
The SysOps administrator must dynamically reference the latest AMI ID from Systems Manager Parameter Store in CloudFormation templates for new AMI versions.
A company has an application that collects notifications from thousands of alarm systems. The notifications include alarm notifications and information notifications. The information notifications include the system arming processes, disarming processes, and sensor status. All notifications are kept as messages in an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue. Amazon EC2 instances that are in an Auto Scaling group process the messages. A SysOps administrator needs to implement a solution that prioritizes alarm notifications over information notifications. Which solution will meet these requirements?
The SysOps administrator must modify the AWS Config rule that deletes noncompliant SSH inbound rules to update the rule to allow SSH from specific trusted IP addresses instead.
A team of developers is using several Amazon S3 buckets as centralized repositories. Users across the world upload large sets of files to these repositories. The development team's applications later process these files. A SysOps administrator sets up a new S3 bucket. DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET, to support a new workload. The new S3 bucket also receives regular uploads of large sets of files from users worldwide. When the new S3 bucket is put into production, the upload performance from certain geographic areas is lower than the upload performance that the existing S3 buckets provide. What should the SysOps administrator do to remediate this issue?
The SysOps administrator needs to address high disk I/O issues during EC2 instance bootstrap in an Auto Scaling group.

A company decides to stop non-production Amazon EC2 instances during the EC2 instances. The company's IT manager must receive notification in near real time whenever an EC2 instance that has an environment type tag value of non-production is started during the night.

Which solution will meet this requirement with the MOST operational efficiency?

A.
Configure an AWS Lambda function with an SMTP client library. Subscribe the Lambda function to the AWS Health Dashboard to receive notification whenever an EC2 instance is in the running state. Configure the Lambda function to use Amazon Pinpoint to send email notifications to the IT manager. Deploy a second Lambda function to throttle calls from the first Lambda function during the daytime.

Deploy an AWS Lambda function that queries the Amazon EC2 API to determine the state of each EC2 instance. Use the EC2 instance scheduler to configure the Lambda function to run every minute during the night and to send an email notification to the IT manager for each non-production EC2 instance that is in the running state.

Create an AWS Lambda function as a target of the rule. Configure the Lambda function to check the current time and the EC2 instances' tags to determine the environment type. Create an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic as a target of the Lambda function for notifications. Subscribe the IT manager's email address to the SNS topic.

Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

The requirement is to monitor and notify whenever a non-production EC2 instance is started during the night. Amazon EventBridge offers a robust solution by triggering workflows in response to events.

Setting up Amazon EventBridge: Create an EventBridge rule that listens for the 'EC2 Instance State-change Notification' event. Configure the rule to trigger only when instances transition to the 'running' state.

Lambda Function: Attach a Lambda function as the target of the EventBridge rule. This function will execute when an EC2 instance starts. Inside the Lambda function, implement logic to check the current time and confirm it is during the night hours. Additionally, the function will check the instance's tags to verify if it's labeled as 'non-production'.

Notification via Amazon SNS: If the conditions are met (non-production and nighttime), the Lambda function publishes a message to an Amazon SNS topic specifically set up for this alert. The IT manager is subscribed to this topic, enabling them to receive an email notification almost instantaneously when the event occurs.

This solution is operationally efficient as it leverages serverless components that are inherently scalable and cost-effective, providing real-time monitoring and notifications without the need for continuous polling or complex infrastructure.
