A company has decided to move some workloads onto AWS to create a grid environment to run market analytics. The grid will consist of many similar instances, spun-up by a job-scheduling function. Each time a large analytics workload is completed, a new VPC is deployed along with job scheduler and grid nodes. Multiple grids could be running in parallel. Key requirements are:
Grid instances must communicate with Amazon S3 to retrieve data to be processed.
Grid instances must communicate with Amazon DynamoDB to track intermediate data.
The job scheduler needs only to communicate with the Amazon EC2 API to start new grid nodes.
A key requirement is that the environment has no access to the internet, either directly or via the on-premises proxy. However, the application needs to be able to seamlessly communicate to Amazon S3, Amazon DynamoDB, and Amazon EC2 API, without the need for reconfiguration for each new deployment. Which of the following should the Solutions Architect do to achieve this target architecture? (Choose three.)
With Amazon Elastic MapReduce (Amazon EMR) you can analyze and process vast amounts of data. The cluster is managed using an open-source framework called Hadoop. You have set up an application to run Hadoop jobs. The application reads data from DynamoDB and generates a temporary file of 100 TBs. The whole process runs for 30 minutes and the output of the job is stored to S3. Which of the below mentioned options is the most cost effective solution in this case?
A company has a legacy application running on servers on premises. To increase the application’s reliability, the company wants to gain actionable insights using application logs. A Solutions Architect has been given following requirements for the solution:
Aggregate logs using AWS.
Automate log analysis for errors.
Notify the Operations team when errors go beyond a specified threshold.
What solution meets the requirements?
A customer has a 10 GB AWS Direct Connect connection to an AWS region where they have a web application hosted on Amazon Elastic Computer Cloud (EC2). The application has dependencies on an on-premises mainframe database that uses a BASE (Basic Available, Soft state, Eventual consistency) rather than an ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) consistency model. The application is exhibiting undesirable behavior because the database is not able to handle the volume of writes.
How can you reduce the load on your on-premises database resources in the most cost-effective way?
A user has created a VPC with public and private subnets. The VPC has CIDR 20.0.0.0/16. The private subnet uses CIDR 20.0.1.0/24 and the public subnet uses CIDR 20.0.0.0/24. The user is planning to host a web server in the public subnet (port 80) and a DB server in the private subnet (port 3306). The user is configuring a security group of the NAT instance. Which of the below mentioned entries is not required in NAT's security group for the database servers to connect to the Internet for software updates?
A video processing company wants to build a machine learning (ML) model by using 600 TB of compressed data that is stored as thousands of files in the company’s on-premises network attached storage system. The company does not have the necessary compute resources on premises for ML experiments and wants to use AWS.
The company needs to complete the data transfer to AWS within 3 weeks. The data transfer will be a one-time transfer. The data must be encrypted in transit. The measured upload speed of the company’s internet connection is 100 Mbps, and multiple departments share the connection.
Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?
A company runs its containerized batch jobs on Amazon ECS. The jobs are scheduled by submitting a container image, a task definition, and the relevant data to an Amazon S3 bucket. Container images may be unique per job. Running the jobs as quickly as possible is of utmost importance, so submitting job artifacts to the S3 bucket triggers the job to run immediately. Sometimes there may be no jobs running at all. However, jobs of any size can be submitted with no prior warning to the IT Operations team. Job definitions include CPU and memory resource requirements.
What solution will allow the batch jobs to complete as quickly as possible after being scheduled?
A read only news reporting site with a combined web and application tier and a database tier that receives large and unpredictable traffic demands must be able to respond to these traffic fluctuations automatically. What AWS services should be used meet these requirements?
A user has created an AWS AMI. The user wants the AMI to be available only to his friend and not anyone else. How can the user manage this?
A customer has a website which shows all the deals available across the market. The site experiences a load of 5 large EC2 instances generally. However, a week before Thanksgiving vacation they encounter a load of almost 20 large instances. The load during that period varies over the day based on the office timings. Which of the below mentioned solutions is cost effective as well as help the website achieve better performance?
