C. Use AWS Data Pipeline to replicate from AWS to on-premises over an IPsec VPN on top of an AWS Direct Connect Connection.
* D. Use the Amazon RDS Multi-Az Feature. Choose on-premises as the failover availability zone over an IPsec VPN on top of an AWS Direct Connect Connection
Question 542
A solutions architect is designing an elastic application that will have between 10 and 50 Amazon EC2 concurrent instances running depending on the load.
Each instance must mount storage that will read and write to the same 50 GB folder.
Which storage type meets the requirements?
A. Amazon S3
* B. Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS)
C. Amazon Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes
D. Amazon EC2 instance store
Question 543

What action would provide an immediate solution?
A. Redesign the website to use Amazon API Gateway, and use AWS Lambda to deliver content
B. Add server instances using Amazon EC2 and use Amazon Route 53 with a failover routing policy
* C. Serve the images and videos using an Amazon CloudFront distribution created using the news site as the origin
D. Use Amazon ElasbCache for Redis for caching and reducing the load requests from the origin
Question 544
A solutions architect is reviewing the cost of a company’s scheduled nightly maintenance. The solutions architect notices that three Amazon EC2 instances are being run to perform nine scripted tasks that take less than 5 minutes each to complete. The scripts are all written in Python.
Which action should the company take to optimize costs of the nightly maintenance?
A. Consolidate the scripts from the three EC2 instances to run on one EC2 instance.
* B. Convert the scripts to AWS Lambda functions and schedule them with Amazon EventBridge (Amazon CloudWatch Events).
C. Purchase a Compute Savings Plan for the running EC2 instances.
D. Create a Spot Fleet to replace the running EC2 instances for executing the scripts.
Question 545
A gaming company is using Amazon DynamoDB to run a high-score leaderboard and record the game progress for users. The company is launching a new game that is expected to be active for years.
The database activity at launch cannot be predicted; but it is expected to stabilize after 4 weeks. Currently, the company is using on-demand capacity mode for processing reads and writes on all DynamoDB tables.
What is the MOST cost-effective way for the company to control the DynamoDB capacity during the new game launch?
A. Use on-demand mode and purchase DynamoDB reserved capacity for the first 4 weeks of the game launch
B. Use provisioned capacity mode, and purchase DynamoDB reserved capacity for the first 4 weeks of the game launch
C. Use provisioned capacity mode for the game launch, switch back to on-demand mode after 4 weeks, and then purchase DynamoDB reserved capacity
* D. Use on-demand mode for the game launch, switch to provisioned capacity mode after 4 weeks and then purchase DynamoDB reserved capacity
Question 546
A company needs to retain application log files for a critical application for 10years. The application team regularly accesses logs from the past month for troubleshooting, but logs older than 1 month are rarely accessed. The application generates more than 10 TB of logs per month.
Which storage option meets these requirements MOST cost-effectively?
A. Store the logs in Amazon S3. Use AWS Backup to move logs more than 1 month old to S3 Glacier Deep Archive
* B. Store the logs in Amazon S3. Use S3 Lifecycle policies to move logs more than 1 month old to S3 Glacier Deep Archive.
C. Store the logs in Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Use AWS Backup to move logs more than 1 month old to S3 Glacier Deep Archive.
D. Store the logs in Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Use Amazon S3 Lifecycle policies to move logs more than 1 month old to S3 Glacier Deep Archive.
Question 547
A company’s website handles millions of requests each day. and the number of requests continues to increase. A solutions architect needs to improve the response time of the web application. The solutions architect determines that the application needs to decrease latency.
When retrieving product details from the Amazon DynamoDB table?
* A. Set up a DynamoOB Accelerator (DAX) cluster. Route all read requests through DAX.
B. Set up Amazon ElasliCache (or Redis between the DynamoOB table and the web application. Route all read requests through Redis.
C. Set up Amazon ElasliCache for Memcached between the DynamoOB table and the web application. Route all read requests through Memcached.
D. Set up Amazon DynamoOB Streams on the table, and have AWS Lambda read from the table and populate Amazon ElastiCache. Route all read requests through ElasliCache.
Question 548
What should a solutions architect do to optimize utilization MOST cost-effectively?

B. Convert the original Aurora Database to Aurora parallel query
C. Convert the original Aurora Database to Aurora global database
* D. Convert the original Aurora Database to Aurora Aurora serverless
Question 549
A development team runs monthly resource-intensive tests on its general purpose Amazon RDS (or MySQL DB instance with Performance insights enabled. The testing lasts for 48 hours once a month and is the only process that uses the database.
