A developer is deploying a Java application on Amazon EC2 instances. The application writes log entries to a local log file at `/var/log/myapp/app.log`. The developer installs the Unified CloudWatch Agent on the instances and configures it to stream these logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. After starting the agent service on the EC2 instances, the developer notices that no log groups or log streams are created in CloudWatch Logs, and no log data is received. Which of the following could be the reasons for this issue? (Select TWO.)

Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

The IAM role attached to the EC2 instances does not have the permissions required to create log groups, log streams, and write log events (such as the permissions provided by the CloudWatchAgentServerPolicy managed policy).

The Unified CloudWatch Agent configuration file contains a syntax error or specifies an incorrect log file path under the logs section in the collect_list.

The metric filter pattern defined in the agent configuration file incorrectly uses {

.status = "ERROR" } instead of {

.status == "ERROR" }, which causes the agent to fail to start.

The IAM role's trust policy designates lambda.amazonaws.com as the trusted entity instead of ec2.amazonaws.com, preventing the EC2 instances from assuming the role.

The EC2 instances are located in a public subnet, but logs cannot be uploaded because the subnet does not have a NAT Gateway or a VPC endpoint for CloudWatch Logs.

Cevap: The IAM role attached to the EC2 instances does not have the permissions required to create log groups, log streams, and write log events (such as the permissions provided by the CloudWatchAgentServerPolicy managed policy).; The Unified CloudWatch Agent configuration file contains a syntax error or specifies an incorrect log file path under the logs section in the collect_list.

Cevap

The correct reasons are that the IAM role attached to the EC2 instances lacks the required permissions (such as those in the CloudWatchAgentServerPolicy managed policy) and that the agent configuration file contains a syntax error or a misconfigured log file path under the collect_list settings.

The correct reasons are that the IAM role attached to the EC2 instances lacks the required permissions (such as those in the CloudWatchAgentServerPolicy managed policy) to communicate with CloudWatch Logs, and that the agent configuration file contains a syntax error or a misconfigured log file path under the collect_list settings, which prevents the agent from locating or processing the log files.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the IAM permissions for the Unified CloudWatch Agent.

Identify that the agent requires permissions like `logs:CreateLogGroup`, `logs:CreateLogStream`, and `logs:PutLogEvents` to write logs, which are typically provided by attaching the `CloudWatchAgentServerPolicy` managed policy to the EC2 instance profile.

Without these permissions, the agent cannot authenticate or perform log upload actions to CloudWatch Logs.

Check the local configuration file of the CloudWatch Agent.

Determine that the agent relies on the local configuration file (often `amazon-cloudwatch-agent.json`) to know which log files to collect and publish under the `logs` section. A syntax error or incorrect path there prevents the agent from finding or parsing the logs.

If the configuration file is malformed, the agent daemon cannot parse the settings to identify which logs to stream.

Evaluate the distractors regarding trust policies, metric filters, and network paths.

Confirm that metric filters are evaluated on the CloudWatch service side (not by the local agent), trust policies must allow EC2 (not Lambda) to assume the role, and public subnets do not require a NAT Gateway or VPC endpoints.

This rules out incorrect options and clarifies standard EC2 and CloudWatch Logs setup.

Anahtar Kavram

Configuring the Unified CloudWatch Agent to stream logs from EC2 instances requires both a valid configuration file on the host and an IAM role with the correct permissions (like CloudWatchAgentServerPolicy) and trust policy (ec2.amazonaws.com).

A developer is designing a REST API in Amazon API Gateway that must start an AWS Step Functions state machine execution whenever a client sends a POST request. To minimize latency and avoid cold starts, the developer wants to configure a direct AWS service integration between API Gateway and Step Functions, without using an intermediate AWS Lambda function.

Which two configuration steps must the developer perform to successfully set up this integration? (Select TWO.)

Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

Configure the integration type as AWS Service, select Step Functions as the AWS service, and set the Action to StartExecution.

Create an IAM role that permits the states:StartExecution action, and specify this role's ARN in the Execution Role field of the integration.

Configure the method to use Lambda Proxy integration and set the target integration URI directly to the Step Functions state machine ARN.

Configure a Cognito User Pool authorizer on the API method and select the Step Functions action permissions within the authorizer settings.

Package the AWS SDK within the client application and configure the API Gateway method to pass client-side IAM access keys to Step Functions using request header mapping.

Cevap: Configure the integration type as AWS Service, select Step Functions as the AWS service, and set the Action to StartExecution.; Create an IAM role that permits the states:StartExecution action, and specify this role's ARN in the Execution Role field of the integration.

Cevap

Configuring the integration type as AWS Service with Step Functions as the service and StartExecution as the action, and creating an IAM role that permits the states:StartExecution action and specifying its ARN in the integration settings.

To create a direct integration between Amazon API Gateway and AWS Step Functions, the developer must configure the integration type as an AWS Service. The target service is set to Step Functions, and the Action is set to StartExecution to invoke the state machine. Additionally, an IAM execution role containing permissions for states:StartExecution must be created and its ARN provided in the execution role field of the integration. This allows API Gateway to securely trigger the state machine on behalf of the client.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Select the integration type for the API method.

Configure the API method integration type to AWS Service.

Since the goal is to directly call Step Functions without an intermediate Lambda function, the developer must use the built-in AWS Service integration type.

Set the action details in the integration settings.

Choose Step Functions as the target service and set the Action to StartExecution.

This maps the incoming API request to the specific Step Functions API action required to trigger a state machine execution.

Configure the execution credentials.

Specify the ARN of an IAM execution role containing the required permissions in the Execution Role field.

API Gateway requires an execution role to authenticate and authorize the call to the Step Functions backend.

A developer is designing a serverless backend using AWS Lambda that processes sensitive customer records. Each record contains a profile payload averaging $15$ KB in size. The application must encrypt these payloads before storing them in an Amazon DynamoDB table. To meet strict performance and cost-efficiency requirements, the developer must implement client-side envelope encryption using a Customer Managed Key (CMK) managed by AWS KMS. Which of the following application workflows represents the most secure, cost-effective, and architecturally correct implementation of client-side envelope encryption?

Call the KMS Encrypt API directly, passing the

15

KB customer record as the plaintext payload. Store the returned ciphertext blob directly in the DynamoDB table.

Generate a symmetric key locally in the Lambda function, encrypt the customer record with it, and call the KMS Encrypt API to encrypt the local key. Store the encrypted record in DynamoDB, and store the encrypted symmetric key in AWS Secrets Manager using a unique secret per customer record.

Call the KMS GenerateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext API to retrieve an encrypted data key. Store this key in Systems Manager Parameter Store, and then call the KMS Decrypt API within the Lambda function to get the plaintext key to encrypt the payload.

Call the KMS GenerateDataKey API to obtain both a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key. Encrypt the customer record payload locally using the plaintext data key, delete the plaintext data key from memory, and store the encrypted payload and the encrypted data key together in the DynamoDB item.

Cevap: Call the KMS GenerateDataKey API to obtain both a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key. Encrypt the customer record payload locally using the plaintext data key, delete the plaintext data key from memory, and store the encrypted payload and the encrypted data key together in the DynamoDB item.

Cevap

The correct workflow calls the KMS GenerateDataKey API to obtain both the plaintext data key and the encrypted data key in a single request. The plaintext key is used locally to encrypt the payload and then immediately cleared from memory, while the encrypted data key is stored directly alongside the encrypted payload in the DynamoDB table.

The correct workflow uses the GenerateDataKey API, which yields both a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key in a single request. The plaintext key is used locally to encrypt the payload and then immediately cleared from memory, while the encrypted data key is stored directly alongside the encrypted payload in the DynamoDB table. This implements client-side envelope encryption securely and efficiently, bypassing the

4

KB size limit of the Encrypt API without introducing unnecessary API calls or storage overhead.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate the payload size and KMS constraints.

The record size of

15

KB exceeds the

4

KB direct encryption limit of the KMS Encrypt API, indicating envelope encryption is required.

To determine if direct KMS encryption is a viable or correct option.

Analyze key generation and retrieval efficiency.

Using GenerateDataKey provides both the plaintext key (for immediate encryption) and the ciphertext key in a single API call, whereas GenerateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext would require a second Decrypt API call.

To minimize KMS API costs and latency.

Determine the storage location for the encrypted data key.

The encrypted data key should be stored directly alongside the encrypted payload in the DynamoDB item, rather than external systems like Secrets Manager or Parameter Store.

To avoid external resource overhead, scale efficiently, and follow proper envelope encryption architecture.

A developer is building a web dashboard that allows corporate employees to sign in using their existing third-party SAML Identity Provider (IdP). The application must access a secure REST API hosted on Amazon API Gateway. The developer wants to validate the user's session at the API Gateway layer using a built-in integration and extract the user's profile claims in the backend AWS Lambda function without writing custom token validation code.

Which configuration strategy should the developer implement to meet these requirements with the least development effort?

Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool federated with the SAML IdP. Use API Gateway IAM authorization, sign the API requests using the temporary AWS credentials, and decode the credentials in the Lambda function to extract user claims.

Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool federated with the SAML IdP. Create an API Gateway Lambda Authorizer that intercepts the SAML response, decodes the token, validates the signature, and injects the claims into the context.

Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool federated with the SAML IdP. Create a Cognito User Pool Authorizer in API Gateway and pass the Cognito ID token in the request header to access the API.

Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool federated with the SAML IdP. Define an IAM role with a trust policy allowing public access, associate it with the API Gateway resource, and extract the SAML assertion directly from the API gateway context mapping.

Cevap: Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool federated with the SAML IdP. Create a Cognito User Pool Authorizer in API Gateway and pass the Cognito ID token in the request header to access the API.

Cevap

Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool federated with the SAML IdP. Create a Cognito User Pool Authorizer in API Gateway and pass the Cognito ID token in the request header to access the API.

Using Amazon Cognito User Pools federated with a SAML Identity Provider allows user directory and authentication federation. API Gateway's built-in Cognito User Pool Authorizer handles token validation natively, passing claims directly to the integration backend (Lambda) in the request context under authorizer claims. This eliminates the need for writing custom token validation code or signing API requests with AWS Signature Version 4.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Select the correct Cognito service type for user authentication and federation.

Amazon Cognito User Pools is selected because it acts as a user directory and natively federates with SAML Identity Providers.

Cognito User Pools authenticate users and generate standard JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) containing identity claims.

Integrate the token validation at the API Gateway layer.

Create a built-in Cognito User Pool Authorizer on the API Gateway REST API.

This authorizer natively decodes and validates Cognito tokens sent in the Authorization header without requiring custom authorizer code.

Access user profile claims in the backend AWS Lambda function.

The Lambda function receives the verified user claims in the request event context under the authorizer claims object.

API Gateway automatically forwards claims from the validated Cognito token to the integration backend, allowing claims-based authorization.

A SaaS billing application stores invoice records in an Amazon DynamoDB table. The table has `CustomerId` as the partition key and `InvoiceId` as the sort key. An `InvoiceStatus` attribute indicates whether the invoice is `PAID` or `UNPAID`. Approximately $98\%$ of all invoices are `PAID`. A developer needs to build a dashboard feature that retrieves only the `UNPAID` invoices for a specific customer. Which of the following strategies is the most performant and cost-effective way to retrieve these records?

Create a Global Secondary Index (GSI) with `CustomerId` as the partition key and a new attribute `UnpaidTimestamp` as the sort key, which is only populated when `InvoiceStatus` is `UNPAID`. Query this GSI using the `CustomerId`.

Perform a Scan operation on the base table using a `FilterExpression` to filter items where `CustomerId` matches the target customer and `InvoiceStatus` is `UNPAID`.

Create a Global Secondary Index (GSI) using `InvoiceStatus` as the partition key and `CustomerId` as the sort key. Query this GSI using `InvoiceStatus = UNPAID` and `CustomerId`.

Query the base table using `CustomerId` to retrieve all invoices, filter for `UNPAID` status in the application logic, and initialize the AWS SDK client using hardcoded AWS IAM access keys.

Cevap: Create a Global Secondary Index (GSI) with `CustomerId` as the partition key and a new attribute `UnpaidTimestamp` as the sort key, which is only populated when `InvoiceStatus` is `UNPAID`. Query this GSI using the `CustomerId`.

Cevap

Creating a sparse Global Secondary Index (GSI) with CustomerId as the partition key and a conditional attribute like UnpaidTimestamp as the sort key, then querying that GSI.

The correct strategy uses a sparse Global Secondary Index (GSI). By defining the GSI with CustomerId as the partition key and a custom attribute (such as UnpaidTimestamp) as the sort key that is only written when the invoice is UNPAID, DynamoDB will only index the unpaid invoices. Since 98% of the invoices are PAID, they will not have the UnpaidTimestamp attribute and will be excluded from the GSI. This minimizes the storage size of the GSI and allows highly efficient, low-cost Query operations restricted to the target customer's unpaid invoices.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the query pattern and data distribution.

Unpaid invoices represent only 2% of the dataset, which makes it a sparse subset. The target query needs to retrieve these records for a specific customer.

Understanding data distribution helps choose between a base table query, scan, or secondary index.

Evaluate index design options for low-frequency attributes.

A sparse GSI can be created by choosing a sort key attribute (like UnpaidTimestamp) that is only populated when the status is UNPAID. Items without this attribute will not be indexed.

Excluding paid invoices from the index reduces the GSI storage size and ensures that queries against the GSI only read relevant records.

Assess partition key cardinality to avoid throttling.

Using CustomerId as the GSI partition key distributes the load across many unique customer partitions, preventing hot partition issues.

If InvoiceStatus was used as the GSI partition key, the 98% of writes for PAID invoices would concentrate on a single partition key value, causing write throttling.

A developer is designing a web application hosted on Amazon ECS behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The application requires users to authenticate via an Amazon Cognito User Pool. The ALB must authenticate incoming HTTP requests and forward the verified user identity claims to the backend ECS containers without requiring token validation logic inside the container code. Additionally, authenticated users must be able to upload profile images directly from their web client to their own folder within an Amazon S3 bucket. Which TWO configurations must the developer implement to meet these requirements?

Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

Add an authenticate action using Cognito to the Application Load Balancer listener rule, which verifies the user session and forwards user claims to the target group in the x-amzn-oidc-data header.

Configure the Cognito User Pool to automatically assume an IAM role for each authenticated session and return temporary credentials directly in the ID token for S3 uploads.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Add an authenticate action using Cognito to the Application Load Balancer listener rule, which verifies the user session and forwards user claims to the target group in the x-amzn-oidc-data header.; Configure a Cognito Identity Pool using the User Pool as an identity provider, and attach an IAM policy to the authenticated role that grants permission to upload to the resource path arn:aws:s3:::my-bucket/uploads/${cognito-identity.amazonaws.com:sub}/*.

Cevap

To meet the requirements, the developer must configure an authenticate action using Cognito on the Application Load Balancer listener rule and set up a Cognito Identity Pool with the User Pool as an identity provider, associating it with an IAM policy that allows access to the user-specific S3 folder path using the identity sub variable.

To offload authentication, the Application Load Balancer listener rule must be configured with an authenticate action using Cognito. The ALB then verifies the tokens and forwards the user information to backend targets via the x-amzn-oidc-data header. For S3 access, the client requires temporary AWS credentials, which are obtained by creating a Cognito Identity Pool that uses the User Pool as an identity provider. The IAM policy attached to the authenticated role uses the ${cognito-identity.amazonaws.com:sub} policy variable to dynamically restrict access to the folder matching the user's Cognito identity ID.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify that the Application Load Balancer needs to offload authentication.

Recognize that ALB supports a native integration with Cognito User Pools using listener rules with an authenticate action.

This avoids having to write custom token validation logic inside the ECS container application code.

Determine how the Application Load Balancer passes user identities.

The ALB passes user claims to the targets in HTTP headers such as x-amzn-oidc-data.

This allows the backend application to read claims such as the user ID or email without performing JWT signature checks.

Determine how the client can directly upload to S3.

Configure a Cognito Identity Pool to exchange the user pool tokens for temporary credentials.

Since S3 requires AWS IAM credentials and does not natively accept Cognito User Pool tokens, a Cognito Identity Pool must act as the credential provider.

Secure the S3 upload path using a policy variable.

Apply an IAM policy to the authenticated role that references ${cognito-identity.amazonaws.com:sub} to restrict each user to their own upload folder.

This dynamically resolves to the Cognito Identity ID of the authenticated user, achieving fine-grained access control.

A developer has implemented an AWS Lambda function that processes PDF documents uploaded to an Amazon S3 bucket. The function downloads each PDF to the local `/tmp` directory, extracts metadata, and updates a database. During high-volume load testing, several invocations fail with a 'No space left on device' error. Additionally, the developer observes that PDF files from previous invocations occasionally persist and interfere with current executions. Which combination of actions should the developer take to resolve these issues? (Select two.)

Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

Programmatically delete the downloaded PDF files from the `/tmp` directory before the function invocation completes.

Increase the ephemeral storage (`/tmp`) configuration of the Lambda function to support larger file sizes.

Configure Provisioned Concurrency for the Lambda function to guarantee that a new execution environment is initialized for every invocation.

Save the downloaded PDF files as global variables in the execution context instead of writing them to the `/tmp` directory.

Deploy the Lambda function inside a private subnet and configure an Amazon S3 Gateway VPC Endpoint to access the bucket.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Programmatically delete the downloaded PDF files from the `/tmp` directory before the function invocation completes.; Increase the ephemeral storage (`/tmp`) configuration of the Lambda function to support larger file sizes.

Cevap

To resolve the issues, the developer must programmatically delete the downloaded files from the local directory before execution completes, and increase the ephemeral storage configuration of the Lambda function.

The correct combination of actions involves programmatically deleting files from the local directory at the end of each invocation and increasing the function's configured ephemeral storage. Programmatic deletion ensures that files do not accumulate over multiple invocations that share the same warm execution environment, resolving both the data leakage and cumulative disk space consumption issues. Increasing the ephemeral storage configuration allows the function to use more than the default 512 MB of local storage to process larger files.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze how AWS Lambda handles execution environment reuse and the local filesystem.

The local filesystem directory is shared across consecutive invocations that run in the same container instance.

Files written to local storage persist between invocations unless programmatically deleted, which can cause disk space exhaustion and data contamination.

Address the data leakage and file persistence issue.

Implement code to clean up downloaded files from the local directory before returning a response.

Explicit cleanup ensures that subsequent invocations reusing the execution environment start with a clean local directory.

Address the disk space limit issue.

Modify the ephemeral storage configuration in the Lambda function settings to allocate more storage.

The default size of the local directory is 512 MB, which might be insufficient for larger or concurrent files. Increasing this configuration allows up to 10 GB of storage.

Cevap

Store the database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager in Account B with a resource-based policy granting access to Account A, and store the public API endpoint URL in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store in Account A as a Standard String parameter.

The correct options are to store the database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager in Account B with a resource-based policy, and store the public API endpoint URL in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store in Account A. AWS Secrets Manager supports automatic rotation and allows direct cross-account access via resource-based policies. Systems Manager Parameter Store is a cost-effective choice for non-sensitive, static configurations since standard parameters have no storage costs.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate credential storage and sharing requirements.

Database credentials need to be stored in Account B, rotated every 30 days, and accessed by Account A. AWS Secrets Manager supports automatic rotation and resource-based policies, which allow cross-account sharing directly.

This satisfies the security requirement for automatic rotation and cross-account access.

Evaluate non-sensitive configuration storage.

The public API endpoint URL is non-sensitive and static. AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store Standard parameters are ideal because they are free and do not require rotation.

This satisfies the cost-effectiveness requirement.

Configure permissions for Account A's App Runner service.

Attach a resource-based policy to the Secrets Manager secret in Account B, specifying the App Runner instance role ARN from Account A as the principal with 'secretsmanager:GetSecretValue' permissions.

This enables secure retrieval of the credentials without hardcoding them or setting up complex cross-account IAM role assumption.

An application running on an Amazon ECS container using AWS Fargate in Account $A$ ( $111122223333$ ) needs to write objects to an Amazon S3 bucket in Account $B$ ( $444455556666$ ). The application code uses the AWS SDK to call the AWS Security Token Service (STS) `AssumeRole` API to assume an IAM role named `CrossAccountS3Writer` in Account $B$ . However, the application receives an `AccessDenied` error on the `AssumeRole` call.

Cevap

Update the trust policy of the CrossAccountS3Writer role in Account B to trust the principal arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/ecsTaskRole, and modify the application code to initialize the S3 client using the temporary security credentials returned by the AssumeRole call.

The correct options involve updating the trust policy of the CrossAccountS3Writer role in Account B to trust the principal arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/ecsTaskRole, and modifying the application code to initialize the S3 client using the temporary security credentials returned by the AssumeRole call. The application runs using the container task role (ecsTaskRole), so the trust relationship must target this role. The SDK must also explicitly use the temporary credentials retrieved from AWS STS to interact with the S3 bucket.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Differentiate between the ECS Task Role and the ECS Task Execution Role.

The application code running inside the container uses the ECS Task Role for AWS API permissions. The ECS Task Execution Role is used only by the container agent for setup tasks.

This determines which role identity makes the sts:AssumeRole call.

Configure the trust relationship in Account B.

The role CrossAccountS3Writer in Account B must list the ECS Task Role (arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/ecsTaskRole) as a trusted entity in its assume role policy document.

This permits the application running under the Task Role identity to assume the target role.

Utilize temporary credentials in the application.

Capture the AccessKeyId, SecretAccessKey, and SessionToken returned by the AssumeRole API call and pass them to the AWS SDK client builder.

The client must use these temporary credentials rather than its default credentials to access the cross-account S3 bucket.

Cevap

The configurations required are: (1) declaring the Transform header at the root level of the template file, and (2) packaging and uploading the local function code in the './src' directory to an Amazon S3 bucket.

The correct answer states that the Transform declaration must be at the root of the template file to instruct CloudFormation how to parse the SAM shorthand syntax, and that local function artifacts in the source directory must be zipped and uploaded to an S3 bucket prior to CloudFormation execution.

Analyze template syntax and transformation requirement.

Identify that the 'Transform: AWS::Serverless-2016-10-31' line is required at the root of the template.

This header informs AWS CloudFormation that it must parse the template using the Serverless transform to expand SAM resources into standard CloudFormation resources.

Analyze code deployment requirements.

Confirm that local files specified by 'CodeUri: ./src' must be packaged.

CloudFormation requires function code to be hosted in an Amazon S3 bucket. The packaging phase zips the local code directory, uploads it, and replaces the local path with the S3 URI.

An AWS Lambda function is configured to run within private subnets of a custom VPC to securely query an Amazon Aurora database. The function also needs to retrieve database credentials stored as secure strings in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store. During testing, the Lambda function times out when attempting to retrieve the parameters, though database connectivity works perfectly.

Cevap

Establish an interface VPC endpoint for Systems Manager (ssm) within the private subnets, associating a security group that allows inbound HTTPS traffic from the Lambda function's security group.

The correct answer is to establish an interface VPC endpoint for Systems Manager (ssm) within the private subnets, associating a security group that allows inbound HTTPS traffic from the Lambda function's security group. Since the Lambda function is running in a private subnet with no NAT Gateway, it has no route to the public internet to reach the default Systems Manager endpoint. Creating an interface VPC endpoint places Elastic Network Interfaces (ENIs) with private IP addresses directly in the private subnets. The Lambda function can then access Parameter Store privately over port 443, provided the endpoint's security group allows inbound traffic from the Lambda function's security group.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the network configuration of the Lambda function.

The Lambda function resides in a private subnet with no NAT Gateway, preventing access to public AWS service endpoints.

By default, resource-bound Lambda functions route traffic through the VPC's routing tables. Without a NAT Gateway or VPC endpoint, they cannot resolve or connect to public services.

Select the correct AWS PrivateLink service endpoint.

Identify that Systems Manager Parameter Store can be accessed privately via an interface VPC endpoint (ssm service).

Interface VPC endpoints provision Elastic Network Interfaces (ENIs) within the subnets, enabling private routing within the AWS network.

Configure the security groups for the VPC endpoint.

Associate a security group with the interface VPC endpoint that allows inbound HTTPS (port 443) traffic from the Lambda function's security group.

Since security groups are stateful and default to blocking all inbound traffic, the endpoint's security group must explicitly allow inbound requests from the client (Lambda).

Cevap: Associate the Lambda function with the private subnets of the VPC, and route outbound internet traffic through a NAT Gateway located in a public subnet.; Configure a security group for the Lambda function that permits outbound traffic to the database port and to the internet on HTTPS port 443.

Cevap

To establish network connectivity for the Lambda function, associate it with the private subnets of the VPC and route outbound internet traffic through a NAT Gateway in a public subnet. Additionally, configure the function's security group to allow outbound traffic to the database port and to the internet on HTTPS port 443.

The correct configurations are to associate the Lambda function with the private subnets of the VPC, routing outbound internet traffic through a NAT Gateway in a public subnet, and configure a security group for the Lambda function that permits outbound traffic to both the database port and HTTPS port 443. This setup ensures that the Lambda function can resolve and reach local resources like the database, while securely routing outbound internet traffic to the external endpoint via the NAT Gateway.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Determine subnet placement for the Lambda function.

The Lambda function is associated with private subnets of the custom VPC to allow secure communication with the database.

Private resources should not be exposed to the public internet, and Lambda needs VPC network interfaces (ENIs) in the same subnets to reach the database.

Enable internet connectivity for the private subnets.

Configure a NAT Gateway in a public subnet, and add a route in the private subnets' route table pointing 0.0.0.0/0 traffic to the NAT Gateway.

Lambda functions in private subnets cannot reach the public internet directly; they require a NAT Gateway to translate private IPs to a public IP for internet access.

Configure the Lambda function's Security Group rules.

Add outbound rules allowing traffic to the database's Security Group on its port, and outbound HTTPS traffic to the internet.

Security groups are stateful and must explicitly allow the outbound traffic initiated by the Lambda function.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool authorizer in Amazon API Gateway and associate it with the API methods.; Configure the mobile application to send the Cognito ID token in the Authorization header of the HTTP requests.

Cevap

The developer should configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool authorizer in Amazon API Gateway, associate it with the API methods, and configure the mobile application to send the Cognito ID token in the Authorization header of the HTTP requests.

The correct options are configuring a built-in Cognito User Pool authorizer in API Gateway and passing the ID token in the Authorization header. This natively offloads JWT verification to API Gateway without custom code, minimizing cost. The API Gateway Cognito authorizer validates the signature, audience, and expiration of the ID token passed in the Authorization header.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the native mechanism in Amazon API Gateway to authorize requests using Amazon Cognito User Pools.

Determine that the Amazon API Gateway Cognito User Pool authorizer provides built-in integration to validate user authentication tokens without custom code.

Using the native authorizer minimizes both the operational cost of running a custom Lambda function and the development effort of writing token validation logic.

Determine how the mobile application should pass the authentication state to API Gateway.

Configure the mobile application to extract the ID token (JWT) returned upon successful authentication with Cognito and place it in the HTTP Authorization header of subsequent API calls.

The API Gateway Cognito authorizer reads the incoming token from the designated header to verify its signature and expiration.

Anahtar Kavram

Amazon API Gateway integrates natively with Amazon Cognito User Pools using a built-in authorizer. This allows developers to validate JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) generated by Cognito without writing custom Lambda functions. The client application passes the Cognito ID token in the request header, and API Gateway automatically validates it before forwarding the request to downstream services.

A microservice processes real-time telemetry data from IoT devices and writes it to an Amazon DynamoDB table. The table's partition key is DeviceType, which has three possible values: SmartWatch, FitnessTracker, and SmartScale.

Cevap: Redesign the partition key schema to use a more unique attribute, such as a combination of DeviceType and DeviceId, to distribute writes across more partitions.; Configure the application's AWS SDK client to use exponential backoff and jitter for request retries when throttled.

Cevap

To resolve the throttling, the developer must redesign the partition key schema to use a high-cardinality attribute (such as combining DeviceType and DeviceId) and configure the AWS SDK client to use exponential backoff and jitter for retries.

Redesigning the partition key schema to use a unique combination like DeviceType and DeviceId distributes writes evenly across multiple partition keys, eliminating the hot partition bottleneck. Implementing exponential backoff with jitter in the application SDK client handles transient throttling errors by spacing out retry attempts.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the cause of the ProvisionedThroughputExceededException.

Identify that a partition key with only three values (SmartWatch, FitnessTracker, SmartScale) creates a hot partition because write requests are concentrated on too few partitions.

DynamoDB partitions are allocated throughput limits. Having a low-cardinality partition key causes individual partitions to exceed their limits, even if the total table capacity is underutilized.

Improve partition key cardinality.

Combine DeviceType with a unique identifier like DeviceId to create a synthetic key.

A high-cardinality key distributes write requests across a larger number of partitions, ensuring even workload distribution.

Configure the client application's retry logic.

Enable exponential backoff and jitter within the AWS SDK client settings.

This prevents client-side retry storms and allows the application to recover gracefully from temporary spikes in traffic.

Anahtar Kavram

DynamoDB partition throttling occurs when a low-cardinality key concentrates requests on a single partition. This is resolved by increasing partition key cardinality and implementing client-side retries with backoff and jitter.

Cevap: Package the shared utility library and the logging module into an AWS Lambda layer, upload the layer, and configure each Lambda function to reference this layer.

Cevap

Package the shared utility library and the logging module into an AWS Lambda layer, upload the layer, and configure each Lambda function to reference this layer.

AWS Lambda layers are designed to isolate and share common dependencies across multiple Lambda functions. This centralizes dependency management, reduces deployment package sizes, and optimizes deployment workflows.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the requirement to share a common utility library and logging module across multiple functions while reducing deployment package sizes.

Recognized that bundling libraries into every function zip file is redundant and inefficient.

Large libraries significantly increase deployment package size, which slows down deployment times and exceeds the storage limit of functions.

Evaluate native AWS Lambda packaging tools.

Determined that AWS Lambda Layers allow separating dependencies from the main application deployment package.

Layers are specifically designed to share code and data across multiple functions, reducing package size and simplifying updates.

Select the layer configuration as the optimal approach.

Created a single deployment artifact containing the libraries, published it as a Lambda layer, and configured functions to use it.

This avoids execution runtime overhead and uses identity-based permission roles correctly.

Cevap: Store the database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager, configure automatic rotation, and reference the secret in the CloudFormation template using a dynamic reference.; Perform drift detection on the CloudFormation stack, review the drifted resources, and manually edit the security group in the Amazon VPC console to match the template configuration.

Cevap

Store the database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager with automatic rotation, reference it via dynamic references, perform drift detection, and manually revert the out-of-band security group changes.

The correct combination is to store the credentials in AWS Secrets Manager and use dynamic references, which supports the

30

-day rotation requirement, and to use drift detection to identify out-of-band changes, followed by manual remediation to revert the security group to the configuration defined in the template.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate the database credential rotation requirement.

AWS Secrets Manager is the correct service because it natively supports secret rotation (such as RDS credentials) every

30

days, whereas Parameter Store does not have built-in rotation.

Choosing the correct secrets management service ensures security compliance and automatic rotation requirements are met.

Address the dynamic reference requirement in the CloudFormation template.

Use dynamic references to retrieve the secret securely without hardcoding parameters.

Dynamic references allow CloudFormation to pull secrets securely from Secrets Manager during stack creation or updates.

Evaluate how to detect and remediate out-of-band changes (drift) in CloudFormation.

Run drift detection on the stack to identify which resources differ from the template. Because CloudFormation does not have an automatic one-click remediation feature, manually modify the resource (security group) back to the template specifications.

This identifies the exact drift and brings the resource back to the desired configuration manually, correcting the out-of-band change.

Cevap

To meet the requirements with the least operational overhead, the developer should configure a Cognito User Pool with a Cognito Authorizer in API Gateway to secure the API endpoints, and use a Cognito Identity Pool linked to the User Pool to provide temporary IAM credentials that grant write permissions to the Kinesis Data Stream.

The correct solution uses the native features of AWS services to minimize custom code. By configuring a Cognito User Pool, the developer establishes a user directory. Setting up a Cognito User Pool Authorizer on API Gateway allows the platform to natively inspect and validate the ID tokens. To interact with Amazon Kinesis directly from the client, the developer uses a Cognito Identity Pool to trade the User Pool's JWTs for temporary, restricted AWS IAM credentials, which contain permission to execute the write action on the stream.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Configure a Cognito User Pool to provide user authentication and management for the single-page application.

The application can authenticate users and receive JSON Web Tokens (ID, Access, and Refresh tokens).

User Pools act as the primary user directory and handle user registration and login flows.

Create a Cognito User Pool Authorizer on the API Gateway REST API and configure it to validate the incoming ID tokens in the Authorization header.

API Gateway automatically validates the signature, expiration, and audience of the JWTs without requiring custom Lambda code.

This utilizes the native API Gateway integration to minimize operational overhead and custom code.

Set up a Cognito Identity Pool (Federated Identities) and configure the Cognito User Pool as an authentication provider.

The identity pool can federate users authenticated by the user pool and exchange their JWTs for temporary AWS IAM credentials.

Identity Pools are designed to authorize access to AWS resources by issuing temporary AWS credentials.

Assign an IAM role to authenticated users in the Identity Pool with a policy that allows the 'kinesis:PutRecord' action on the target stream.

Authenticated users obtain temporary AWS credentials with permissions to publish telemetry logs directly from the browser SDK.

This establishes fine-grained authorization to access AWS resources directly from client-side code.

Once authenticated, users must be able to download files directly from an Amazon S3 bucket. Access must be restricted such that users can only download objects from an S3 prefix that matches their department name (e.g., `company-data/hr/*` for the 'hr' department). The department name is supplied as a custom SAML assertion claim named `department`.

Which configuration should the developer implement to meet these requirements with the least administrative and coding overhead?

Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool with the SAML IdP. Set up Attribute Mapping to map the SAML `department` claim to the principal tag `department`. In the IAM policy attached to the authenticated role, grant `s3:GetObject` permission for the resource `arn:aws:s3:::company-data/${aws:PrincipalTag/department}/*`.

Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool with the SAML IdP. Create a Post Authentication AWS Lambda trigger that checks the user's `department` attribute, generates temporary AWS credentials with a dynamic policy, and stores them in the User Pool's custom user attributes for the client to retrieve.

Cevap

Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool with the SAML IdP, map the SAML attribute to the principal tag, and reference the tag in the IAM policy using a policy variable.

The correct option maps the SAML assertion claim to a principal tag in the Cognito Identity Pool configuration. This allows the IAM role to use Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) and dynamic policy variables (`${aws:PrincipalTag/department}`) to restrict access to department-specific prefixes in S3 with a single IAM role, minimizing overhead.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Configure the Identity Pool with the SAML Identity Provider.

This enables federation, allowing Cognito to accept SAML assertions from the external IdP.

Cognito Identity Pools broker access to AWS resources by exchanging external identity tokens for temporary AWS credentials.

Set up Attribute Mapping in the Identity Pool.

The `department` claim from the SAML assertion is mapped to the principal tag `department` in the AWS security token context.

This enables Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) by attaching the department tag to the assumed IAM role session.

Reference the principal tag in the IAM role's permission policy.

A dynamic resource ARN `arn:aws:s3:::company-data/${aws:PrincipalTag/department}/*` is used in the policy.

This allows a single IAM role to scale across multiple departments without requiring manual configuration changes or multiple roles.

An organization hosts a critical multi-region web application on Amazon ECS Fargate across the us-east-1 and us-west-2 Regions. The application connects to an Amazon Aurora Global Database. A developer needs to design a secure solution to manage the database password. The password must be rotated every 30 days, and ECS tasks in both Regions must be able to retrieve the credentials locally with minimal latency. Which solution meets these requirements with the least operational overhead?

Store the database credentials as a SecureString parameter in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store in us-east-1 and us-west-2. Configure an AWS Lambda function triggered by an Amazon EventBridge scheduled rule to update the database password, update the parameter in the primary Region, and copy it to the secondary Region.

Store the database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager in the primary Region. In the ECS task application code, initialize the AWS SDK client using hardcoded IAM user access keys to authenticate and retrieve the secret value from the primary Region during application startup.

Store the database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager in the primary Region, configure automatic rotation using the built-in RDS rotation template, and replicate the secret to the secondary Region. In the ECS task definition, assign the permission to retrieve the secret to the ECS Task Role, and reference the local Secrets Manager ARN in the container definition's environment variables (valueFrom).

Store the database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager in the primary Region, configure automatic rotation using the built-in RDS rotation template, and replicate the secret to the secondary Region.

Cevap

Store the database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager in the primary Region, configure automatic rotation using the built-in RDS rotation template, and replicate the secret to the secondary Region. In the ECS task definition, assign the permission to retrieve the secret to the ECS Task Execution Role, and reference the local Secrets Manager ARN in the container definition's environment variables (valueFrom).

The correct solution leverages AWS Secrets Manager's native support for automatic rotation of database credentials using built-in AWS Lambda rotation templates. Replicating the secret to the secondary Region ensures that ECS Fargate tasks can retrieve the secret locally, minimizing latency. To inject secrets as environment variables during task startup, the ECS container agent retrieves the secret, which requires the necessary permissions to be attached to the ECS Task Execution Role, rather than the ECS Task Role.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the service that natively supports automatic credential rotation and multi-region replication.

AWS Secrets Manager supports automatic rotation for Amazon RDS/Aurora and cross-region replication, whereas Parameter Store lacks these native features.

Using Secrets Manager minimizes custom replication and rotation scripts, satisfying the low operational overhead requirement.

Determine how ECS tasks retrieve secrets during container startup.

ECS allows injecting secrets directly into environment variables using the valueFrom parameter in the container definition.

Injecting secrets directly prevents them from being exposed in the task definition plaintext or application logs.

Identify the correct IAM role needed for secret injection.

The ECS Task Execution Role is used by the ECS container agent to pull images and retrieve secrets, while the ECS Task Role is for application code API calls.

Granting permission to the Task Execution Role ensures the ECS agent can retrieve the secret from Secrets Manager to spin up the container successfully.
