A solutions architect is designing the database tier for an IoT fleet management application. The application receives real-time telemetry from $90,000$ vehicles. The data volume exhibits sudden, highly irregular spikes when vehicles enter high-connectivity zones, ranging from $1,000$ writes per second up to a peak of $50,000$ writes per second. The application requires sub-millisecond read latency for live dashboard queries, while write operations must have single-digit millisecond latency. The primary read query retrieves the latest status events for a specific vehicle. Which database architecture meets these requirements with the highest performance and scalability?

Create an Amazon DynamoDB table using a rounded timestamp as the partition key and vehicle_id as the sort key. Configure the table with On-Demand capacity mode, and deploy a DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) cluster to cache read queries.

Cevap: Create an Amazon DynamoDB table using vehicle_id as the partition key and timestamp as the sort key. Configure the table with On-Demand capacity mode, and deploy a DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) cluster to handle read queries.

Cevap

Create an Amazon DynamoDB table using vehicle_id as the partition key and timestamp as the sort key, configured in On-Demand capacity mode, with a DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) cluster for caching reads.

The correct option provides the most performant and scalable solution. Partitioning by vehicle_id ensures a uniform distribution of write operations across physical partitions, avoiding the hot key issue. On-Demand capacity mode scales dynamically to handle sudden write spikes up to the peak of

50,000

writes per second without requiring manual provisioning or incurring idle costs. DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) delivers the required sub-millisecond read latency by caching queries directly in-memory.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate the database scalability and performance requirements.

Identify that the system requires up to

50,000

writes/sec with single-digit millisecond latency, and sub-millisecond read latency. Traditional relational databases like RDS are ruled out because scaling writes to this level under spiky workloads is complex and expensive.

Establishing database type boundaries ensures a high-performing and cost-effective fit.

Determine the optimal partition key design for the DynamoDB table.

Select vehicle_id as the partition key to distribute writes evenly across DynamoDB partitions.

Avoiding monotonically increasing keys (such as timestamps) prevents hot partition bottlenecks.

Select the capacity mode and caching solution.

Choose On-Demand capacity mode to automatically handle unpredictable write spikes, and implement DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) to achieve sub-millisecond read latencies.

On-Demand mode prevents throttling and over-provisioning costs, while DAX provides microsecond read performance.

Anahtar Kavram

High-performing database scaling using partition key design, capacity mode selection, and caching integration on AWS.

An e-commerce company hosts its product catalog image library on an Amazon S3 bucket in the us-east-1 Region. These images must be delivered globally with the lowest possible latency. To ensure reliability, the company requires that if the primary S3 bucket in us-east-1 becomes unavailable or returns server errors, the architecture must automatically serve images from a replicated S3 bucket in the us-west-2 Region. The solution must minimize operational complexity.

Which two actions should the solutions architect take to meet these requirements? (Select two.)

Cevap: Create an Amazon CloudFront distribution and define an origin group containing the primary S3 bucket as the primary origin and the secondary S3 bucket as the secondary origin.; Enable origin failover for the CloudFront origin group and configure it to fail over to the secondary origin on specific HTTP status codes such as 500, 502, 503, and 504.

Cevap

To meet the requirements, the solutions architect should create an Amazon CloudFront distribution with an origin group containing the primary S3 bucket as the primary origin and the secondary S3 bucket as the secondary origin. Additionally, they should enable origin failover in the origin group and configure it to fail over to the secondary origin on status codes such as 500, 502, 503, and 504.

The correct architecture uses Amazon CloudFront for low-latency edge caching of static images, coupled with CloudFront Origin Groups for high availability. By creating an origin group containing the primary S3 bucket and the secondary S3 bucket, and setting up failover on server error status codes (500, 502, 503, 504), CloudFront will automatically fall back to serving content from the secondary bucket in the event of an outage or error with the primary bucket. This is a native feature that minimizes operational complexity.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Configure content delivery to minimize latency.

Amazon CloudFront is deployed to cache the product catalog images at edge locations globally.

CloudFront caches static files close to users, fulfilling the requirement for lowest possible global latency.

Establish the secondary S3 bucket as a fallback origin.

An origin group is configured in CloudFront with the primary S3 bucket in us-east-1 as the primary origin and the replicated S3 bucket in us-west-2 as the secondary origin.

This establishes the logical mapping required for automatic origin-level failover.

Configure the failover threshold criteria.

Origin failover is enabled on the origin group, targeting HTTP status codes 500, 502, 503, and 504.

When CloudFront receives these server errors from the primary S3 bucket, it automatically routes the request to the secondary bucket, achieving high availability with zero manual intervention or custom code.

A healthcare provider stores two types of data in a single Amazon S3 bucket:

* Clinical Imaging Data (DICOM): The average file size is $20\text{ MB}$ . These files are accessed frequently by clinicians for the first $40$ days. After $40$ days, access drops significantly, but images must be retrievable within $4$ hours for follow-up appointments. The images must be retained for $7$ years ( $2555$ days).
* System Access Logs: The average file size is $10\text{ KB}$ . These logs are analyzed daily for security audits during the first $15$ days. After $15$ days, they are rarely accessed, but must be retained for $1$ year ( $365$ days) for regulatory compliance.

Cevap: Configure a lifecycle rule for the Clinical Imaging Data to transition objects from S3 Standard to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval after $40$ days, and expire them after $2555$ days.; Keep the System Access Logs in S3 Standard, and configure a lifecycle rule to expire the objects after $365$ days.

Cevap

Configure a lifecycle rule for the Clinical Imaging Data to transition objects from S3 Standard to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval after 40 days and expire them after 2555 days, and keep the System Access Logs in S3 Standard, configuring a lifecycle rule to expire the objects after 365 days.

Transitioning the Clinical Imaging Data directly from S3 Standard to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval after 40 days is highly cost-effective because the average file size of 20 MB is well above the 128 KB minimum storage threshold, and standard retrieval (which takes 3-5 hours) satisfies the 4-hour retrieval requirement. Keeping the System Access Logs in S3 Standard and expiring them after 365 days is correct because the average file size is 10 KB, which is below the 128 KB minimum size threshold for S3 Standard-IA and S3 Glacier. Transitioning these small files to a lower-cost storage class would incur a storage charge penalty for 128 KB per object, making it significantly more expensive than keeping them in S3 Standard.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the file sizes and access patterns for both datasets.

Clinical Imaging Data files are large (20 MB) and accessed frequently for 40 days, then rarely accessed but must be retrievable within 4 hours. System Access Logs are very small (10 KB) and accessed frequently for 15 days, then rarely accessed.

Understanding file sizes and access requirements is critical for identifying potential minimum size penalties and retrieval time constraints.

Evaluate storage tier options for the Clinical Imaging Data.

Transitioning directly to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval after 40 days is optimal because the 20 MB files exceed the 128 KB minimum size threshold, and the 3-5 hour retrieval window meets the 4-hour requirement.

Bypassing S3 Standard-IA prevents paying transition and storage fees for an intermediate class when Glacier already meets the retrieval SLA.

Evaluate storage tier options for the System Access Logs.

Transitioning to S3 Standard-IA or S3 Glacier is cost-ineffective due to the 128 KB minimum storage billing limit on those tiers. The most cost-optimized strategy is to retain them in S3 Standard and expire them after 365 days.

Transitioning 10 KB files to a tier with a 128 KB minimum threshold results in paying for 12.8 times the actual storage consumed, violating cost optimization principles.

A company hosts a global media application that distributes static images from an Amazon S3 bucket. To minimize latency and protect the application from origin server failures, a solutions architect is implementing an Amazon CloudFront distribution. The architecture must automatically redirect traffic to a backup S3 bucket in a different AWS Region if the primary S3 bucket returns an HTTP 502 or 504 error. Which combination of actions should the solutions architect perform to meet these resiliency requirements? (Select TWO.)

Cevap: Create a CloudFront origin group containing both the primary and backup S3 buckets as origins, designating the primary bucket as primary.; Configure the CloudFront distribution's cache behavior to direct requests to the newly created origin group.

Cevap

Create a CloudFront origin group with the primary and backup S3 buckets, and configure the cache behavior to point to this origin group.

To set up automatic failover for static content distributed via CloudFront, you must create an origin group that contains a primary origin (the primary S3 bucket) and a secondary origin (the backup S3 bucket). You specify the failover criteria (e.g., HTTP 502 and 504 status codes) that trigger the failover. Finally, you configure the cache behavior to target the origin group so that requests are routed through this failover logic.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Define origins in the CloudFront distribution

Two distinct origins are created within the CloudFront configuration: one pointing to the primary S3 bucket and another pointing to the backup S3 bucket.

Before an origin group can be configured, the individual origin endpoints must exist in the distribution.

Create and configure an origin group

An origin group is established with the primary S3 bucket set as the primary origin and the backup S3 bucket set as the failover origin. The failover criteria are configured to trigger on HTTP 502 and 504 status codes.

This establishes the automatic failover relationship and defines which HTTP status codes from the primary origin will trigger a redirection to the backup origin.

Associate the origin group with the cache behavior

The cache behavior for the static images is updated to target the origin group instead of a single origin.

This ensures that incoming user requests are processed by the origin group, enabling the failover mechanism when errors occur.

Cevap: Create a custom budget in AWS Budgets, and configure an alert threshold based on forecasted costs to notify the team when projected spending exceeds the budget.; Configure AWS Cost Anomaly Detection with a cost monitor and subscribe to alerts using Amazon SNS to receive notifications when sudden, unexpected cost spikes occur.

Cevap

Creating a custom budget in AWS Budgets based on forecasted costs, and configuring AWS Cost Anomaly Detection with a cost monitor and alert subscription.

The correct combination involves configuring AWS Budgets to alert on forecasted cost overruns, which provides a proactive warning before the budget is exceeded, and setting up AWS Cost Anomaly Detection with a monitor and subscription to receive notifications of sudden cost spikes. These tools are built specifically for proactive, automated cost control and anomaly notification.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the requirements for proactive cost monitoring and cost anomaly detection.

Identify that the system needs to alert on future budget overruns (forecasting) and sudden cost spikes (anomalies).

This establishes the functional requirements for selecting the appropriate AWS cost management tools.

Evaluate AWS Budgets for forecast-based alerting.

AWS Budgets can monitor costs against a threshold and send alerts based on forecasted spending, which meets the requirement of preventing budget overruns proactively.

Forecasted alerts allow organizations to take corrective action before a budget limit is actually breached.

Evaluate AWS Cost Anomaly Detection for sudden cost spikes.

AWS Cost Anomaly Detection uses machine learning to identify unexpected cost spikes and sends alerts via SNS, meeting the requirement for detecting anomalies.

Cost Explorer is retrospective and not designed for automated, near real-time anomaly alerting.

Anahtar Kavram

AWS Budgets and AWS Cost Anomaly Detection are designed for proactive cost alerting, whereas AWS Cost Explorer is intended for retrospective cost analysis and visualization.

Configure stateless Network ACLs on the public subnets to allow direct traffic to the EC2 instances, bypassing the Application Load Balancer to reduce network hops.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Deploy AWS Global Accelerator and register the Application Load Balancer as the endpoint. Direct the users to access the portal via the accelerator's static IP addresses.

Cevap

Deploy AWS Global Accelerator and register the Application Load Balancer as the endpoint. Direct the users to access the portal via the accelerator's static IP addresses.

AWS Global Accelerator utilizes the AWS global network to route traffic from the edge location closest to the user directly to the Application Load Balancer. This avoids the public internet congestion, reduces latency, and decreases packet loss.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the user location and the host region to determine the source of latency.

Traffic from South America to the ap-northeast-1 Region (Japan) travels over multiple public internet service providers (ISPs), exposing it to routing fluctuations and packet loss.

Understanding the path of the network packets helps identify why public internet routing is suboptimal.

Evaluate AWS services designed to optimize global client-to-application traffic.

AWS Global Accelerator is selected because it ingresses traffic at the edge location closest to the user and routes it over the private AWS global network.

Using the AWS global network avoids the public internet and minimizes hops, jitter, and latency.

Associate the existing Application Load Balancer with the AWS Global Accelerator endpoint.

Traffic is routed efficiently from the global edge locations to the regional ALB.

This maintains the load balancing architecture while providing a high-performance network path.

Anahtar Kavram

AWS Global Accelerator optimizes network path performance for global users by routing traffic over the dedicated AWS global network instead of the public internet.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Launch the EC2 instances within a cluster placement group.; Configure the target group of the Network Load Balancer to perform health checks on port 9900.

Cevap

To meet the requirements, the solutions architect should launch the EC2 instances in a cluster placement group and configure the Network Load Balancer target group to perform health checks on port 9900.

Launching the EC2 instances in a cluster placement group ensures that the instances are placed physically close together in the AWS infrastructure, providing the low-latency, high-throughput network performance required. Configuring the target group health check port to use port 9900 ensures that the Network Load Balancer correctly checks the port where the database application is active, preventing healthy targets from being marked as unhealthy.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the network latency and throughput requirements between the EC2 instances.

The application requires high throughput and very low node-to-node latency, which points to the need for a cluster placement group.

Cluster placement groups place instances physically close to each other within a single Availability Zone, enabling high-performance networking.

Analyze the load balancing and health check requirements.

The database application listens on custom port 9900, meaning health checks must be directed to port 9900.

Querying the default port 80 instead of the custom port 9900 would fail, causing the load balancer to incorrectly identify all instances as unhealthy.

Anahtar Kavram

High-Performance and Elastic Compute Solutions require appropriate placement groups for low-latency node-to-node communication, and correct health check configuration to ensure traffic is correctly routed to healthy custom ports.

Cevap: Purchase a Compute Savings Plan for the EC2 instances, purchase Amazon RDS Reserved DB Instances for the database, and configure an Amazon S3 Gateway VPC Endpoint.

Cevap

Purchase a Compute Savings Plan for the EC2 instances, purchase Amazon RDS Reserved DB Instances for the database, and configure an Amazon S3 Gateway VPC Endpoint.

Purchasing a Compute Savings Plan covers the EC2 instances at a discounted rate, while Amazon RDS Reserved DB Instances provide the necessary discount for the database tier because Compute Savings Plans do not apply to Amazon RDS. Additionally, configuring an Amazon S3 Gateway VPC Endpoint allows the background workers to upload files to Amazon S3 without passing through a NAT Gateway, which avoids costly data processing fees.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the compute requirements for the EC2 instances.

The EC2 instances run continuously in a steady state, making them eligible for compute discounts. A Compute Savings Plan offers flexibility and savings of up to 66% on EC2 instance usage.

Compute Savings Plans are optimal for steady-state EC2 workloads and offer easier management across instance families.

Analyze the database tier requirements.

The Amazon RDS PostgreSQL database runs 24/7. Compute Savings Plans do not cover RDS instances. Therefore, purchasing RDS Reserved DB Instances is the correct purchasing model to obtain database discounts.

Reserved DB Instances must be purchased separately to cover RDS database costs as they are outside the scope of Compute Savings Plans.

Analyze the network data transfer to Amazon S3.

Uploading large log files from a private subnet to S3 via a NAT Gateway would incur high data processing fees ($0.045 per GB). Creating a free Amazon S3 Gateway VPC Endpoint routes this traffic directly and securely to S3 at no cost.

Gateway VPC Endpoints eliminate NAT Gateway data processing costs for S3-bound traffic.

Cevap: Configure the Amazon DynamoDB table in Provisioned Capacity Mode and implement Application Auto Scaling with scheduled actions to scale up Write Capacity Units (WCUs) to $15,000$ before 08:00 on weekdays and scale down to $100$ WCUs during off-peak hours.; Enable Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR) on the DynamoDB table, export the table data directly to Amazon S3 once a month, and perform the compliance audit queries using Amazon Athena.

Cevap

Configure the DynamoDB table in Provisioned Capacity Mode with scheduled scaling to transition between

15,000

and

100

WCUs, and export the table data via Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR) to Amazon S3 to query using Amazon Athena.

The correct database design incorporates Provisioned Capacity Mode with scheduled scaling for writes, combined with PITR exports to Amazon S3 and Amazon Athena for read-heavy compliance audits. Scheduled scaling aligns capacity with predictable changes, reducing write costs by over 85% compared to On-Demand capacity mode. Exporting DynamoDB table data using PITR does not consume any live table capacity, eliminating the need to provision high Read Capacity Units (RCUs) for monthly 2-hour compliance scans.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the write workload characteristics and predictability.

The write workload has a predictable, high-volume peak of

15,000

writes/sec during weekdays and drops to

100

writes/sec overnight and on weekends.

Understanding whether traffic is predictable is key to choosing between DynamoDB On-Demand and Provisioned Capacity modes.

Calculate the comparative costs of On-Demand vs. Provisioned Capacity with Scheduled Scaling.

On-Demand write costs:

15,000 \text{ writes/sec} \times 3600 \text{ sec/hour} \times 10 \text{ hours/day} \times 22 \text{ days/month} = 11.88 \text{ billion writes/month}

. At

\$1.25

per million, this costs

\$14,850.00

per month. Provisioned capacity costs:

15,000 \text{ WCUs} \times 220 \text{ hours} \times \$0.00065 \approx \$2,145.00

+ off-peak baseline costs of

\$33.15

, totaling

\$2,178.15

per month.

Determining the most cost-effective capacity option for the database writes.

Evaluate options for offloading the monthly 2-hour database scan.

Scanning the live database directly requires provisioning massive Read Capacity Units (RCUs) which is highly expensive and risks throttling. Exporting the database using PITR to S3 does not consume live read capacity and allows querying via Amazon Athena for a fraction of the cost.

Decoupling analytical queries from transactional workloads to optimize cost and performance.

Cevap: AWS Cost Anomaly Detection configured with an account monitor and an alert subscription using an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic.; AWS Billing Conductor configured with custom billing groups, pricing plans, and pricing rules to generate pro forma billing data for the business units.

Cevap

Implement AWS Cost Anomaly Detection with account monitors and SNS alerting, combined with AWS Billing Conductor to establish billing groups, pricing plans, and pricing rules for pro forma showback reporting.

Proactive detection of variable workload anomalies requires AWS Cost Anomaly Detection, which uses machine learning models to dynamically analyze cost and usage patterns and trigger alert notifications via Amazon SNS. For custom showback pricing, AWS Billing Conductor is the correct service because it groups AWS Organizations accounts and applies custom pricing rules to generate pro forma billing files reflecting negotiated rates.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate the requirement for proactive anomaly detection with highly variable workloads.

Identify that static thresholds are unsuitable and choose AWS Cost Anomaly Detection, which uses machine learning to automatically establish baselines and dynamically alert on spikes within 24 hours.

This avoids manual maintenance of static alerts.

Evaluate the requirement to generate showback billing reports with custom negotiated rates instead of consolidated rates.

Select AWS Billing Conductor to organize accounts into billing groups and apply custom pricing rules and plans to generate pro forma billing data.

AWS Billing Conductor is the designated service to reprice and group multi-account billing details for downstream showback.

Verify and exclude alternative tool options.

Discard solutions based on static AWS Budgets, retrospective Cost Explorer schedules, or non-repricing Cost Categories.

These alternatives either introduce manual threshold overhead, lack immediate alerting capacity, or cannot perform dynamic repricing.

A logistics company is migrating its core order processing system to Amazon RDS. The database must be highly available across multiple Availability Zones with a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of less than 2 minutes and a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of 0 (no data loss). Additionally, the solutions architect must scale read performance horizontally to handle reporting queries without impacting write latency on the primary database instance.

Which combination of database configuration and application routing strategies will meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)

Cevap: Deploy the database as an Amazon RDS Multi-AZ DB cluster with one writer and two readable standby DB instances.; Configure the application to route write queries to the cluster endpoint and read queries to the reader endpoint of the DB cluster.

Cevap

Deploy the database as an Amazon RDS Multi-AZ DB cluster with one writer and two readable standby DB instances, and configure the application to route write queries to the cluster endpoint and read queries to the reader endpoint of the DB cluster.

Deploying an Amazon RDS Multi-AZ DB cluster provides a primary writer instance and two readable standby instances across three Availability Zones, ensuring automatic failover under 2 minutes and zero data loss (RPO of 0) via semi-synchronous replication. The application can scale reads horizontally by routing queries to the reader endpoint, which load-balances the traffic among the standby instances, while routing writes to the cluster endpoint.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the high availability and zero data loss (RPO = 0) requirements during an Availability Zone outage.

Determine that standard single-instance or asynchronous replica configurations are insufficient, and a synchronous or semi-synchronous replication method (such as RDS Multi-AZ or Aurora) is required.

Multi-AZ deployments provide automatic failover and ensure data is replicated to another AZ before writes are committed, satisfying the RPO of 0 and RTO under 2 minutes.

Evaluate how to support horizontal read scaling alongside high availability in RDS.

Identify that a standard Multi-AZ DB instance has a passive standby that cannot be read from, whereas an RDS Multi-AZ DB cluster provides two readable standby instances.

Choosing the Multi-AZ DB cluster deployment enables both high availability and horizontal read scaling off the standby instances.

Determine the proper application routing mechanism to separate reads and writes in the cluster.

Route write operations to the cluster endpoint (pointing to the primary writer) and read operations to the reader endpoint (which load-balances reads to the standby instances).

This separation allows the application to scale reads horizontally without overloading the primary writer database instance.

A company has two VPCs (VPC A and VPC B) in the `us-east-1` Region. An application running on Amazon EC2 instances in private subnets in VPC A needs to transfer $40\text{ TB}$ of data monthly to a database cluster in VPC B. Additionally, the EC2 instances in VPC A upload $15\text{ TB}$ of backup data to Amazon S3 daily. Currently, VPC A and VPC B are connected using an AWS Transit Gateway, and all external traffic from the private subnets, including the S3 backup traffic, is routed through a central NAT Gateway.

Cevap: Create a Gateway VPC Endpoint for Amazon S3 in VPC A, and associate it with the route tables of the private subnets.; Establish a VPC Peering connection between VPC A and VPC B, and route the traffic between the VPCs through the peering connection.

Cevap

Create a Gateway VPC Endpoint for Amazon S3 in VPC A and associate it with the route tables of the private subnets, and establish a VPC Peering connection between VPC A and VPC B and route the traffic between the VPCs through the peering connection.

To optimize costs, the solutions architect should address both the S3 backups and the cross-VPC data transfer. For S3, using a Gateway VPC Endpoint is free and bypasses the NAT Gateway data processing fees. For cross-VPC traffic, since there are only two VPCs in the same Region with high data volumes, VPC Peering is more cost-effective than AWS Transit Gateway because VPC Peering does not charge hourly or data processing fees.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze S3 backup data transfer costs.

15\text{ TB}

of data daily sent via a NAT Gateway incurs high NAT Gateway data processing charges (approx. $0.045 per GB).

Identifying the primary source of the data transfer cost is the first step to optimization.

Select the most cost-effective S3 routing option.

A Gateway VPC Endpoint for Amazon S3 is free to create and incurs no data processing charges, bypassing the NAT Gateway completely.

Replacing NAT Gateway routing with a Gateway VPC Endpoint for S3 traffic removes NAT Gateway processing fees.

Analyze cross-VPC data transfer costs.

40\text{ TB}

of monthly data transferred through AWS Transit Gateway incurs both hourly attachment fees and per-GB processing charges ($0.02 per GB).

Evaluating the Transit Gateway costs allows comparison with alternative routing options.

Select the most cost-effective cross-VPC routing option.

VPC Peering has no hourly charge and no data processing charges, charging only for standard data transfer rates between Availability Zones.

Replacing Transit Gateway with VPC Peering for a point-to-point connection between two VPCs in the same Region eliminates Transit Gateway data processing fees.

Cevap: AWS Cost Anomaly Detection to monitor cost monitors and send alerts when abnormal spending patterns are detected.; AWS Budgets with cost filters based on cost allocation tags to trigger notifications when forecasted amounts exceed thresholds.

Cevap

AWS Cost Anomaly Detection should be used to detect sudden, unexpected spending spikes using machine learning, and AWS Budgets with cost filters should be used to track monthly tag-based spending against forecasted thresholds.

The correct options are the use of AWS Cost Anomaly Detection and AWS Budgets. AWS Cost Anomaly Detection satisfies the requirement to identify unexpected cost spikes that deviate from historical patterns within 24 hours using machine learning. AWS Budgets satisfies the requirement to monitor specific tag-based costs and alert proactively based on forecasted monthly spending before the budget threshold is actually crossed.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the requirement for detecting unexpected spending spikes that deviate from historical patterns.

AWS Cost Anomaly Detection is selected because it uses machine learning to establish a baseline of historical usage and dynamically flag anomalies within 24 hours.

Traditional static budgets cannot easily detect irregular spikes that remain under a threshold, whereas AWS Cost Anomaly Detection is designed for this purpose.

Analyze the requirement for tracking monthly spend against tag-based budgets and receiving alerts based on forecasted amounts.

AWS Budgets is selected and configured with tag-based cost filters and forecasted alert thresholds.

AWS Budgets supports defining alerts on both actual and forecasted metrics, allowing proactive action before the budget is actually breached.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: On-demand capacity mode

Cevap

On-demand capacity mode

On-demand capacity mode is the most cost-effective choice for unpredictable, spiky workloads with long idle periods. It automatically scales to meet the sudden spikes instantly and incurs zero costs during idle hours since billing is based strictly on actual read and write request units consumed.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the workload characteristics from the scenario.

The workload has highly unpredictable traffic, sudden spikes lasting a few minutes, and long periods of zero activity.

To determine the most cost-optimized and auto-scaled option, we must match workload patterns to AWS billing models.

Evaluate DynamoDB capacity modes against the workload patterns.

Provisioned capacity mode requires paying for a minimum threshold continuously, leading to idle costs. On-demand capacity mode scales instantly and charges only per request.

This identifies the configuration that eliminates costs during idle times and handles sudden spikes without throttling.

Cevap

The correct options are the use of AWS Lambda for short-lived backend logic, and Amazon DynamoDB in on-demand capacity mode for storing registration details.

AWS Lambda and Amazon DynamoDB in on-demand capacity mode together form a fully serverless backend. Both services automatically scale to zero when there is no traffic, ensuring no compute or write/read database capacity charges are incurred during inactive periods, and scale instantly to handle spikes.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the workload requirements and identify that the traffic is highly unpredictable with long periods of complete inactivity.

This requires compute and database services that scale down to zero when idle to minimize costs.

Designing for cost optimization requires avoiding provisioned resources that incur charges during idle times.

Evaluate the compute options for executing lightweight backend logic under these conditions.

AWS Lambda is selected because it scales automatically and charges only when the code runs, with no idle costs.

Traditional server-based options or continuous execution models would waste money during inactive periods.

Evaluate the database options to store registration details cost-effectively.

Amazon DynamoDB with on-demand capacity mode is selected because it scales instantly with traffic spikes and charges only for read/write requests, with no hourly provisioning costs.

0

and

10

based on the SQS queue backlog, and configure Amazon DynamoDB with On-Demand capacity mode.

The correct solution satisfies all architectural and cost constraints. An Amazon SQS FIFO queue maintains strict ordering per shipment ID using message groups. Since the CPU-intensive tasks run for

18

minutes, AWS Fargate is used instead of AWS Lambda, which would time out. ECS Service Auto Scaling dynamically scales the Fargate tasks down to

0

when the queue is empty to eliminate idle compute costs. Using Amazon DynamoDB in On-Demand capacity mode is optimal because the workload intervals are unpredictable, meaning the company only pays for active database reads and writes with zero base cost when idle.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze execution duration constraints against compute options.

Since each processing job takes approximately

18

minutes, AWS Lambda is ruled out due to its strict

15

-minute maximum execution timeout. AWS Fargate (ECS) is the appropriate serverless compute choice as it does not have this timeout constraint.

Ensures that processing completes successfully without timing out.

Determine ordering and scalability requirements for ingestion.

Strict ordering per shipment ID requires an Amazon SQS FIFO queue, where the shipment ID is used as the message group ID.

Guarantees sequential processing per shipment to avoid database corruption while allowing scaling across multiple shipment IDs.

Cevap

Configure AWS Global Accelerator in front of the ALB. Register the ALB as the endpoint group target. Update the client configuration to connect via the provided Anycast static IP addresses.

AWS Global Accelerator is designed to optimize routing and improve availability for TCP and UDP traffic by onboarding traffic at the nearest AWS Edge Location and routing it over the congestion-free AWS global network. It also provides two static Anycast IP addresses, which satisfies the client firewall allowlisting requirement.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the protocol and client requirements.

The application uses a custom TCP-based protocol (non-HTTP/S) and requires static IP addresses on the client-side for firewall allowlisting.

This rules out Amazon CloudFront, which is restricted to HTTP/HTTPS traffic, and requires a service that can provide static Anycast IPs.

Evaluate network acceleration services.

AWS Global Accelerator supports non-HTTP TCP/UDP protocols, routes traffic over the AWS global network to reduce latency, and provides two static Anycast IP addresses.

This directly matches all requirements of the scenario, including latency reduction and fixed IP support.

Select the optimal architecture configuration.

Provision AWS Global Accelerator with the Application Load Balancer (ALB) as the endpoint target.

This setup allows clients to connect to the static Anycast IPs, routing their TCP packets over the optimized AWS global backbone to the ALB.

A financial services company is deploying a distributed in-memory data grid (IMDG) on Amazon EC2 instances to cache real-time trading data. The grid nodes require sub-millisecond node-to-node network latency and high throughput for clustering and state replication. Additionally, the grid must expose an administration API port (port 8443) to a Network Load Balancer (NLB) for health monitoring and external control, while the main grid communication runs on port 5701. How should a solutions architect configure the EC2 instances and the NLB target group to meet these requirements?

Cevap: Launch the EC2 instances in a cluster placement group. Register the instances in the NLB target group on port 5701, and configure the target group health checks to explicitly use port 8443.

Cevap

Launch the EC2 instances in a cluster placement group, register the instances in the NLB target group on port 5701, and configure the target group health checks to explicitly use port 8443.

A cluster placement group is designed for low-latency, high-throughput node-to-node communication within a single Availability Zone. Since the main grid traffic is on port 5701, the targets must be registered on that port. However, because the health status is monitored via an administration API on port 8443, the health check port must be explicitly overridden to port 8443, otherwise the load balancer will query the traffic port (5701) and fail to receive valid health responses.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze placement group requirements for the EC2 instances.

Determine that a cluster placement group is required because the distributed in-memory data grid requires sub-millisecond node-to-node latency and high throughput.

Cluster placement groups pack instances close together within an Availability Zone to enable low-latency, high-throughput network performance.

Configure the target group for the Network Load Balancer.

Traffic routing must point to the primary port where nodes handle incoming client connections and data replication.

Configure the health check port override in the target group settings.

Configure the target group health check port explicitly to port 8443.

By default, the load balancer performs health checks on the registered traffic port (port 5701). Since the administration and health API runs on port 8443, the health check port must be overridden, otherwise the load balancer will query the wrong port and mark the targets as unhealthy.

Anahtar Kavram
