A company used Amazon EC2 instances to deploy a web fleet to host a blog site. The EC2 instances are behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) and are configured in an Auto Scaling group. The web application stores all blog content on an Amazon EFS volume.

The company recently added a feature for bloggers to add video to their posts, attracting 10 times the previous user traffic. At peak times of day, users report buffering and timeout issues while attempting to reach the site or watch videos. Which is the MOST cost-efficient and scalable deployment that will resolve the issues for users?

A.
Reconfigure Amazon EFS to enable maximum I/O.

You are the new IT architect in a company that operates a mobile sleep tracking application.

When activated at night, the mobile app is sending collected data points of 1 kilobyte every 5 minutes to your backend. The backend takes care of authenticating the user and writing the data points into an Amazon DynamoDB table. Every morning, you scan the table to extract and aggregate last night's data on a per user basis, and store the results in Amazon S3. Users are notified via Amazon SNS mobile push notifications that new data is available, which is parsed and visualized by the mobile app.

Currently you have around 100k users who are mostly based out of North America.

You have been tasked to optimize the architecture of the backend system to lower cost.

What would you recommend? (Choose two.)

A.
Have the mobile app access Amazon DynamoDB directly Instead of JSON files stored on Amazon S3.

A company asks a solution architect to optimize the cost of a solution. The solution handles requests from multiple customers. The solution includes a multi-tier architecture that uses Amazon API Gateway, AWS Lambda, AWS Fargate, Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS), and Amazon EC2.

In the current setup, requests go through API Gateway to Lambda and either start a container in Fargate or push a message to an SQS queue. An EC2 Fleet provides EC2 instances that serve as workers for the SQS queue. The EC2 Fleet scales based on the number of items in the SQS queue.

Which combination of steps should the solutions architect recommend to reduce cost the MOST? (Choose three.)

A.
Determine the minimum number of EC2 instances that are needed during a day. Reserve this number of instances in a 3- year plan with payment all upfront.

Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

CloudFront is a web service that speeds up distribution of your static and dynamic web content, for example, .html, .css,.php, and image files, to end users. Every CloudFront web distribution must be associated either with the default CloudFront certificate or with a custom SSL certificate. Before you can delete an SSL certificate, you need to either rotate SSL certificates (replace the current custom SSL certificate with another custom SSL certificate) or revert from using a custom SSL certificate to using the default CloudFront certificate.
