Cevap: Launch the EC2 instances within a cluster placement group in a single Availability Zone; Set the target group health check port configuration to 'traffic-port' or explicitly to port $9090$

Cevap

To meet the requirements, the Solutions Architect should launch the EC2 instances in a cluster placement group and configure the ALB target group health check port to 'traffic-port' or explicitly to port

9090

Launching instances within a cluster placement group provides low-latency, high-throughput network performance by placing them close together within a single Availability Zone. Setting the health check port to the traffic port or explicitly to port

9090

ensures the load balancer verifies the actual port where the application is listening, preventing healthy instances from being falsely marked as unhealthy.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the network latency and throughput requirements of the risk modeling engine.

Identify that the workload is tightly-coupled and requires the lowest possible network latency and high throughput for node-to-node communication.

This determines the choice of EC2 placement group.

Select the appropriate EC2 placement group type.

A cluster placement group is selected because it packs instances close together inside a single Availability Zone to enable low-latency, high-throughput networking.

Spread and partition placement groups separate instances to increase resilience, which increases latency.

An enterprise application runs on Amazon EC2 instances inside a private subnet. These instances are managed by an Auto Scaling group (ASG) and receive traffic from an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The primary application is configured to listen on port 5000, while a dedicated monitoring daemon on each instance handles status reporting on port 5001. Currently, the target group health checks are targeted at port 5001. The ALB marks all new instances as unhealthy, yet the ASG fails to terminate or replace them. The security group on the EC2 instances is configured to accept inbound TCP connections on port 5000 from the ALB's security group. Which two modifications will resolve these issues and ensure unhealthy instances are automatically replaced? (Select two.)

Cevap: Allow inbound TCP traffic on port 5001 from the Application Load Balancer's security group in the EC2 instances' security group; Modify the Auto Scaling group's health check configuration to use Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) health checks instead of EC2 health checks

Cevap

Allow inbound TCP traffic on port 5001 from the Application Load Balancer's security group in the EC2 instances' security group, and modify the Auto Scaling group's health check configuration to use Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) health checks instead of EC2 health checks.

The correct options resolve both issues. First, allowing inbound TCP traffic on port 5001 from the Application Load Balancer's security group within the EC2 instances' security group opens the necessary communication path for the load balancer to query the monitoring daemon. Second, configuring the Auto Scaling group to use ELB health checks ensures the Auto Scaling group is aware of health status changes from the load balancer, enabling it to automatically terminate and replace instances that fail the target group health checks.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze why the Application Load Balancer is marking instances as unhealthy.

The target group is querying port 5001 for health checks, but the EC2 instances' security group only allows inbound traffic on port 5000. Traffic to port 5001 is being blocked.

Security groups are stateful firewalls at the instance level. An inbound rule must explicitly allow the load balancer to reach the health check port.

Analyze why the Auto Scaling group is not replacing the unhealthy instances.

By default, Auto Scaling groups use EC2 status checks (hardware and system status) to determine instance health. They do not automatically recognize Application Load Balancer target group health check failures.

Changing the health check type to ELB tells the Auto Scaling group to monitor target group health status and replace instances when they are marked unhealthy by the load balancer.

Cevap

Configure an Amazon RDS for MySQL cross-region read replica in the secondary Region, and promote it during failover. Additionally, create and copy an AMI of the application servers, and use an AWS CloudFormation template to deploy the application tier resources during failover.

To satisfy the 10-minute RPO, continuous or near-continuous replication is required. Amazon RDS cross-region read replicas automatically replicate changes asynchronously with very low latency, typically in seconds, meeting the RPO. To meet the 3-hour RTO while minimizing ongoing costs, a Pilot Light strategy is ideal. Keeping pre-built AMIs and deploying the infrastructure via AWS CloudFormation templates on-demand avoids paying for running compute instances and load balancers during normal operations, yet allows full recovery within the 3-hour timeline.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Select a data replication strategy that meets the 10-minute RPO.

Amazon RDS cross-region read replicas use asynchronous replication with very low replication lag (seconds to minutes), satisfying the 10-minute RPO.

Direct backup methods like daily snapshots would violate the 10-minute RPO.

Select a compute strategy that meets the 3-hour RTO while minimizing cost.

Store pre-built AMIs and write AWS CloudFormation templates to provision the load balancer and Auto Scaling group when a disaster is declared.

This Pilot Light strategy avoids any ongoing compute costs for idle servers while allowing full provisioning within the 3-hour window.

Avoid warm standby or active-active configurations to respect the cost constraint.

Do not provision running EC2 instances or load balancers in the secondary region prior to failover.

Running inactive or scaled-down infrastructure incurs unnecessary ongoing costs.

Cevap: Deploy the EC2 instances in a cluster placement group, and configure the target group health check to query port 8080.

Cevap

Deploying the EC2 instances in a cluster placement group ensures the lowest inter-node network latency, while configuring the target group health check to query port 8080 ensures the load balancer accurately monitors the health of the servers on the correct management port.

To achieve the lowest possible node-to-node network latency, EC2 instances should be deployed in a cluster placement group, which packs instances close together within a single Availability Zone. Additionally, because the health endpoint is on a custom management port (8080) rather than the game traffic port (7777), the ALB target group's health check must be explicitly configured to query port 8080. This resolves the health check failures while maintaining high-performance networking.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify latency optimization mechanism

Cluster placement groups must be used to pack EC2 instances close together within a single Availability Zone for low-latency node-to-node communication.

Other placement groups like partition or spread are designed for high availability and fault isolation, which can increase network latency.

Locate health check port mismatch

The target group's health check must be explicitly pointed to port 8080.

By default, target groups run health checks on the traffic port (7777 in this case). Since the health endpoint is only available on port 8080, health checks will fail unless custom port configuration is applied.

Cevap: Set up an Amazon Aurora Global Database with the primary cluster in the primary Region and a secondary cluster in the disaster recovery Region.; Deploy an Auto Scaling group in the disaster recovery Region with the minimum and desired capacity set to 0, and use a script or AWS CloudFormation to scale out the instances during a failover.

Cevap

Configure an Amazon Aurora Global Database with a secondary cluster in the recovery Region, and deploy an Auto Scaling group in the recovery Region with its capacity initialized to 0, scaling it out on-demand during failover.

The correct solution uses a Pilot Light disaster recovery strategy. Setting up an Aurora Global Database ensures asynchronous, sub-second replication to the secondary Region, keeping the database in sync and satisfying the 5-minute RPO. Deploying an Auto Scaling group with minimum and desired capacity set to 0 avoids active compute charges during normal operations, which satisfies the cost minimization constraint. In the event of a disaster, the database can be promoted quickly, and the Auto Scaling group can be scaled out via automation within the 20-minute RTO.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the RTO and RPO requirements alongside the cost minimization constraint.

The RPO of 5 minutes requires active database replication to the secondary Region. The RTO of 20 minutes allows the application tier to be scaled down to zero and started on demand (Pilot Light).

The architecture needs to support fast recovery but avoid the cost of active compute in the recovery Region.

Cevap

Update the ALB target group health check settings to explicitly use port 8080, and configure the security group of the EC2 instances to allow inbound traffic on port 8080 from the security group of the ALB.

To resolve the health check issues, the target group's health check configuration must be modified to query port 8080 where the application is listening, and the EC2 security group must allow inbound traffic on port 8080 from the ALB security group to allow the probes to succeed.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the service configuration and identify the application port.

The application listens on port 8080, which is different from the default port 80.

By default, an Elastic Load Balancing target group performs health checks on the default port of the target group. If the target group defaults to port 80 but the application listens on port 8080, health checks will fail.

Ensure network connectivity between the Application Load Balancer and the EC2 instances.

The EC2 instances' security group must permit inbound TCP traffic on port 8080 from the ALB's security group.

Security groups are stateful firewalls. Allowing inbound traffic on the custom port from the load balancer security group allows the health check requests (and client traffic) to reach the instances.

Pre-configure the Application Load Balancer and the Auto Scaling group in us-west-2 with a desired capacity of zero. Configure Amazon Route 53 failover routing with health checks.

Cevap

The correct solution represents a Pilot Light DR strategy, which is the most cost-effective way to meet a 4-hour RTO and 15-minute RPO. Amazon S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) and Amazon Aurora Global Database provide continuous, low-latency replication that satisfies the 15-minute RPO. Aurora Global Database supports having zero running DB instances in the secondary region cluster, and the EC2 Auto Scaling group can be configured with a capacity of zero. During a failover event, the DB instances are created, the Auto Scaling group is scaled up, and Route 53 failover routing directs traffic to the secondary region. This process completes well within the 4-hour RTO and incurs zero compute cost during normal operation.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Determine the optimal disaster recovery pattern based on the RTO and RPO constraints.

An RTO of 4 hours suggests that a Pilot Light strategy is appropriate because compute resources (EC2 and Aurora DB instances) do not need to run continuously and can be provisioned or scaled up during failover.

This minimizes ongoing costs while easily meeting the generous 4-hour recovery window.

Choose replication mechanisms that satisfy the 15-minute RPO.

S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) and Aurora Global Database both replicate data continuously and asynchronously with sub-minute latency.

This ensures that data loss in the event of a disaster remains well under the 15-minute RPO limit.

Select the correct database and application configuration for Pilot Light.

Aurora Global Database allows the secondary DB cluster to have zero DB instances, eliminating compute costs. Similarly, pre-configured Auto Scaling groups can have their desired capacity set to zero.

This ensures zero compute expenses in the recovery region during normal operations, achieving the most cost-effective architecture.

Cevap

Create a cross-region read replica of the RDS DB instance in the us-east-1 Region, and deploy a scaled-down application tier in the us-east-1 Region with Amazon Route 53 failover routing and health checks.

To meet the 15-minute RPO, the database must replicate continuously to the secondary region. An RDS cross-region read replica meets this requirement by replicating data asynchronously with very low latency. To meet the 30-minute RTO, the database replica can be promoted to a standalone primary instance in minutes. To minimize costs, the application tier should be kept scaled down (Pilot Light pattern) and only scaled up when a failover is initiated. Amazon Route 53 failover routing with health checks handles the redirection of user traffic to the secondary region during a disaster.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Select a database replication method that meets the RPO of less than 15 minutes.

Using an Amazon RDS cross-region read replica provides asynchronous data replication across regions, which typically keeps replication lag under a few minutes, meeting the 15-minute RPO.

Asynchronous replication to a cross-region read replica provides a cost-effective, low-lag copy of the database in the recovery region.

Choose a compute deployment model that minimizes costs and supports the 30-minute RTO.

Pre-deploying a scaled-down (Pilot Light) application tier in us-east-1 ensures that the core resources exist and can be scaled up rapidly via Auto Scaling groups or instance resizing during a disaster.

A Pilot Light pattern avoids the cost of running a full-capacity environment continuously while still meeting the RTO.

Configure DNS routing to handle traffic redirection during failover.

Setting up Amazon Route 53 failover routing policies associated with health checks allows the architect to redirect client traffic to the secondary region once the database is promoted and the application tier is scaled up.

Failover routing provides the mechanism to switch active user traffic to the backup site when the primary region is unavailable.

Cevap: Create an Amazon SNS FIFO topic to receive and distribute the transaction events.; Create two Amazon SQS FIFO queues and subscribe them to the SNS FIFO topic, with one queue dedicated to each downstream service.

Cevap

Creating an Amazon SNS FIFO topic to receive the events and subscribing two Amazon SQS FIFO queues to the topic (one for each downstream service) provides a decoupled, resilient, and ordered event distribution system.

To achieve both event fan-out (sending the same transaction to multiple services) and chronological ordering, the architecture must use Amazon SNS FIFO paired with Amazon SQS FIFO. An SNS FIFO topic preserves the ordering of messages and can fan them out to multiple SQS FIFO queues. Each downstream service must have its own dedicated SQS FIFO queue to ensure both services receive every transaction message independently without competing. The SQS queues also buffer messages, decoupling the producer from the consumers and ensuring resilience during downstream service outages.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Select a message distribution service that supports ordering and fan-out.

Amazon SNS FIFO is chosen because standard SNS does not guarantee ordering, which is a key requirement for ledger transactions.

An SNS FIFO topic ensures that message ordering is maintained and allows fanning out the same message to multiple subscriber queues.

Select consumer queues that support ordering and resilience.

Two Amazon SQS FIFO queues are chosen, with one dedicated to each downstream service.

SQS FIFO queues preserve the strict order of messages published by the SNS FIFO topic and buffer messages to protect downstream services during high traffic or downtime.

Verify fan-out topology versus shared queue topology.

Each service must have its own queue subscribed to the SNS FIFO topic rather than sharing a single queue.

A single shared queue would result in competing consumers where each transaction is processed by only one of the services instead of both.

Cevap: Create an Amazon SNS FIFO topic, and subscribe two Amazon SQS FIFO queues to the topic.; Publish the trip status updates to the SNS FIFO topic using the unique trip ID as the message group ID.

Cevap

Create an Amazon SNS FIFO topic and subscribe two Amazon SQS FIFO queues to it, then publish the status updates to the SNS FIFO topic using the trip ID as the message group ID.

To achieve both decoupling (fan-out) and strict chronological ordering per trip, the architect must use Amazon SNS FIFO and Amazon SQS FIFO. By subscribing two separate SQS FIFO queues (one for billing, one for analytics) to the SNS FIFO topic, the system fans out the updates to both services independently. Using the unique trip ID as the message group ID ensures that events for any single trip are processed in order, while allowing updates across different trips to run in parallel, maximizing throughput during spikes.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Determine how to broadcast trip status updates to both backend services without coupling.

Amazon SNS is chosen to fan out incoming trip status updates to multiple downstream destinations.

Publishing events to an SNS topic allows multiple independent subscriber queues to receive copies of the same event.

Select the appropriate queue and topic types to guarantee chronological ordering.

Configure an SNS FIFO topic and SQS FIFO queues, and publish messages using the trip ID as the message group ID.

FIFO configurations guarantee that messages within the same group are processed in the exact order they are received, while the trip ID ensures serialization is restricted per trip rather than across the entire platform.

Exclude alternatives that introduce bottlenecks or cost inefficiencies.

Avoid standard queues (which do not guarantee ordering), continuous Lambda loops (which inflate run-time costs), and monotonic keys in DynamoDB (which create hot partitions).

This guarantees a decoupled, resilient, cost-effective, and highly performant architecture that scales with traffic spikes.

This pattern ensures that each downstream service (search indexing, image watermarking, and email alerts) receives its own copy of the listing update event (fan-out) and processes them in the exact order they were published (FIFO), preventing race conditions where older updates could overwrite newer listing data.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the concurrency and ordering requirements.

The platform needs to distribute listing updates to three downstream services (fan-out) while maintaining the chronological sequence of updates per property listing (ordering).

This determines that standard publish-subscribe messaging is insufficient because it does not guarantee first-in, first-out (FIFO) delivery, which is required to prevent older updates from overwriting newer ones.

Determine the appropriate AWS messaging integration pattern.

To implement fan-out with strict ordering, the solution must pair Amazon SNS FIFO with Amazon SQS FIFO.

An SNS FIFO topic preserves the order of messages published to it and delivers them to subscribed SQS FIFO queues in that same order. Each service needs its own SQS FIFO queue to avoid destructive reads.

Evaluate the subscription configuration constraints.

Subscribing SQS FIFO queues to an SNS FIFO topic ensures message ordering is preserved from end to end.

If standard SNS or standard SQS is introduced anywhere in the pipeline, ordering guarantees are lost, and subscribing a single queue to multiple consumers would prevent all services from receiving every update.

A property management portal hosts its application in the us-east-1 Region. The database tier runs on an Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL Multi-AZ DB instance. The application tier consists of Amazon EC2 instances inside an Auto Scaling group behind an Application Load Balancer. The company needs to design a disaster recovery (DR) strategy in the us-west-2 Region with a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of 2 hours and a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of 15 minutes. The solution must minimize ongoing operational and infrastructure costs. Which disaster recovery strategy should a solutions architect recommend to meet these requirements?

Configure a cross-region RDS read replica in the DR region. Save the application server configurations as an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) and store the network infrastructure configurations as an AWS CloudFormation template. During a disaster, deploy the infrastructure from the template, promote the RDS read replica to a standalone database, and scale the application tier.

Configure a cross-region RDS read replica in the DR region. Pre-deploy the application load balancer and the Auto Scaling group in the DR region, running at a minimum capacity of one EC2 instance. During a disaster, promote the RDS read replica and scale out the Auto Scaling group to handle the production traffic.

Configure a cross-region RDS read replica in the DR region. Configure Amazon Route 53 with an active-passive failover routing policy pointing to the primary database in the main region and the read replica in the DR region. In the event of a failure, Route 53 will automatically promote the replica and route all database write traffic to the DR region.

Configure daily snapshots of the primary database and copy them to an Amazon S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval vault in the DR region. Store the application server backups in S3 Glacier. During a disaster, initiate an expedited retrieval of the snapshots, restore the database, and provision new EC2 instances.

Cevap: Configure a cross-region RDS read replica in the DR region. Save the application server configurations as an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) and store the network infrastructure configurations as an AWS CloudFormation template. During a disaster, deploy the infrastructure from the template, promote the RDS read replica to a standalone database, and scale the application tier.

Cevap

The correct strategy is the Pilot Light pattern. By maintaining a cross-region RDS read replica, the database replication is continuous, satisfying the 15-minute RPO. Storing compute and networking tier configurations as CloudFormation templates and AMIs ensures that no EC2 instances or load balancers are running during normal operations, minimizing ongoing costs. Recreating these resources and promoting the RDS read replica during a failover can easily be completed within the 2-hour RTO.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the RPO requirement of 15 minutes.

Identify that data must be replicated to the recovery region in near real-time. A cross-region Amazon RDS read replica meets this requirement by replicating data asynchronously with replication lag typically measured in seconds.

To ensure that data loss does not exceed 15 minutes in the event of a disaster.

Analyze the RTO requirement of 2 hours and the cost-optimization constraint.

Determine that a Pilot Light strategy is the most cost-effective approach. Instead of keeping active compute resources running, store configurations as AMIs and AWS CloudFormation templates. The 2-hour RTO allows sufficient time to deploy these templates and provision the compute tier dynamically.

To minimize running infrastructure costs in the recovery region while still meeting the recovery time limit.

Formulate the failover process.

During a disaster, promote the cross-region read replica to a standalone primary database, run the CloudFormation template to deploy the Application Load Balancer and Auto Scaling group, and launch instances using the saved AMIs.

To complete the recovery process and restore full service in the secondary region.

Anahtar Kavram

Disaster recovery strategies differ in RTO, RPO, and cost. A Pilot Light strategy keeps the database replication active but compute resources offline, making it highly cost-effective while still meeting moderate recovery time objectives.

Cevap: Publish the exam submission events to an Amazon SNS FIFO topic. Subscribe separate Amazon SQS FIFO queues for the grading, certificate, and notification services to the SNS FIFO topic.

Cevap

Publish the exam submission events to an Amazon SNS FIFO topic. Subscribe separate Amazon SQS FIFO queues for the grading, certificate, and notification services to the SNS FIFO topic.

The correct solution uses an Amazon SNS FIFO topic subscribed to by multiple Amazon SQS FIFO queues. An SNS FIFO topic ensures that message ordering is preserved during fan-out, and SQS FIFO queues guarantee that the consumer microservices process the messages in the exact order they were published. This satisfies both the decoupling/fan-out requirement and the strict message ordering constraint with minimal operational overhead.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the fan-out requirement where multiple distinct services (grading, certificate, and notification) need to process the same exam submission event.

Amazon SNS is the standard AWS service to achieve event fan-out to multiple subscribers.

It allows a single published message to be delivered to multiple downstream endpoints automatically.

Analyze the ordering requirement which specifies that events must be processed in the exact order they are received to prevent concurrency issues.

Both the message delivery (SNS) and queueing (SQS) layers must support First-In-First-Out (FIFO) ordering.

Standard SNS and SQS queues only provide best-effort ordering, which can result in out-of-order execution.

Select the integration pattern that natively supports both fan-out and ordered delivery with minimal operational overhead.

Combine Amazon SNS FIFO with Amazon SQS FIFO queues.

SNS FIFO topics can deliver messages to SQS FIFO queues while preserving the message order and message group ID, eliminating the need for custom ordering or filtering logic in application code.

Configure Route 53 failover routing to point to the active Application Load Balancer, and promote the read replica to a standalone DB instance during failover.

Cevap

The correct strategy is a Warm Standby. To meet the 10-minute RPO, a cross-Region Read Replica is deployed in the us-west-2 Region to continuously replicate data asynchronously. To meet the 15-minute RTO, a replica Application Load Balancer and a scaled-down Auto Scaling group with a minimum capacity of 1 are deployed in the target Region. This ensures that the application is running and can immediately begin accepting traffic when Route 53 failover routing is triggered, while the Auto Scaling group scales up dynamically. During failover, the read replica is promoted to a standalone primary database instance.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Determine the database replication strategy to satisfy the 10-minute Recovery Point Objective (RPO).

Identify that a cross-Region Read Replica replicates transactions asynchronously with minimal lag (seconds or minutes), which successfully satisfies the 10-minute RPO. Daily backups fail this requirement.

Choosing the correct replication technology is necessary to ensure data loss is kept under the target threshold.

Select the appropriate disaster recovery (DR) strategy to satisfy the 15-minute Recovery Time Objective (RTO).

Determine that a Warm Standby strategy (keeping a minimum capacity of 1 running instance in the target Region) is required to meet the 15-minute RTO. A Pilot Light strategy (minimum capacity of 0) takes too long to spin up, configure, and pass load balancer health checks from scratch.

Active but scaled-down services ensure immediate traffic ingestion, which minimizes failover delay.

Configure the failover mechanism for DNS routing.

Use Amazon Route 53 with failover routing policies pointing to the primary and secondary Application Load Balancers.

This guarantees that incoming traffic is automatically or manually redirected to the disaster recovery Region during an outage.

Cevap

Create an SCP that denies the CloudTrail modification actions and attach it to the root of the organization, and enable AWS IAM Identity Center integrated with Okta to manage access.

Attaching the SCP to the root of the organization restricts CloudTrail modification actions on all member accounts by inheritance, but because SCPs do not apply to the management account, administrative operations in the management account remain unrestricted. Integrating AWS IAM Identity Center with Okta using SAML 2.0 and SCIM ensures centralized identity federation and dynamic access provisioning to member accounts without creating individual local IAM users or long-term credentials.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate the CloudTrail protection requirement.

Identify that a Service Control Policy (SCP) denying delete, stop, and update actions is required to prevent member account administrators from altering CloudTrail.

SCPs allow organization-wide control over actions that member account administrators can perform.
