A company has multiple AWS accounts. The company recently had a security audit that revealed many unencrypted Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes attached to Amazon EC2 instances. A solutions architect must encrypt the unencrypted volumes and ensure that unencrypted volumes will be detected automatically in the future. Additionally, the company wants a solution that can centrally manage multiple AWS accounts with a focus on compliance and security.
Which combination of steps should the solutions architect take to meet these requirements? (Choose two.)
An organization has hosted an application on the EC2 instances. There will be multiple users connecting to the instance for setup and configuration of application.

You have custom Network File System (NFS) client settings for your Amazon Elastic File System (EFS). It takes up to three seconds for an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instance to see a write operation performed on a file system from another Amazon EC2 instance.

A company has an environment that has a single AWS account. A solutions architect is reviewing the environment to recommend what the company could improve specifically in terms of access to the AWS Management Console. The company’s IT support workers currently access the console for administrative tasks, authenticating with named IAM users that have been mapped to their job role. The IT support workers no longer want to maintain both their Active Directory and IAM user accounts. They want to be able to access the console by using their existing Active Directory credentials. The solutions architect is using AWS Single Sign- On (AWS SSO) to implement this functionality.
Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

A public retail web application uses an Application Load Balancer (ALB) in front of Amazon EC2 instances running across multiple Availability Zones (AZs) in a Region backed by an Amazon RDS MySQL Multi-AZ deployment. Target group health checks are configured to use HTTP and pointed at the product catalog page. Auto Scaling is configured to maintain the web fleet size based on the ALB health check. Recently, the application experienced an outage. Auto Scaling continuously replaced the instances during the outage. A subsequent investigation determined that the web server metrics were within the normal range, but the database tier was experiencing high load, resulting in severely elevated query response times.
Which of the following changes together would remediate these issues while improving monitoring capabilities for the availability and functionality of the entire application stack for future growth? (Choose two.)

You are responsible for a web application that consists of an Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) load balancer in front of an Auto Scaling group of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances. For a recent deployment of a new version of the application, a new Amazon Machine Image (AMI) was created, and the Auto Scaling group was updated with a new launch configuration that refers to this new AMI. During the deployment, you received complaints from users that the website was responding with errors. All instances passed the ELB health checks.
What should you do in order to avoid errors for future deployments? (Choose two.)
