A company wants to migrate its on-premises application to AWS. The application produces output files that vary in size from tens of gigabytes to hundreds of terabytes The application data must be stored in a standard file system structure The company wants a solution that scales automatically, is highly available, and requires minimum operational overhead.
Which solution will meet these requirements?

1. A. Migrate the application to run as containers on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) Use Amazon S3 for storage
2. B. Migrate the application to run as containers on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) Use Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) for storage
3. C. Migrate the application to Amazon EC2 instances in a Multi-AZ Auto Scaling grou
4. D. Use Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) for storage.
5. E. Migrate the application to Amazon EC2 instances in a Multi-AZ Auto Scaling grou
6. F. Use Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) for storage.

Correct Answer: C
EFS is a standard file system, it scales automatically and is highly available.

A company is hosting a web application on AWS using a single Amazon EC2 instance that stores
user-uploaded documents in an Amazon EBS volume. For better scalability and availability, the company duplicated the architecture and created a second EC2 instance and EBS volume in another Availability Zone placing both behind an Application Load Balancer After completing this change, users reported that, each time they refreshed the website, they could see one subset of their documents or the other, but never all of the documents at the same time.
What should a solutions architect propose to ensure users see all of their documents at once?

1. A. Copy the data so both EBS volumes contain all the documents.
2. B. Configure the Application Load Balancer to direct a user to the server with the documents
3. C. Copy the data from both EBS volumes to Amazon EFS Modify the application to save new documents to Amazon EFS
4. D. Configure the Application Load Balancer to send the request to both servers Return each document from the correct server.

Correct Answer: A
Amazon EFS provides file storage in the AWS Cloud. With Amazon EFS, you can create a file system, mount the file system on an Amazon EC2 instance, and then read and write data to and from your file system. You can mount an Amazon EFS file system in your VPC, through the Network File System versions 4.0 and a4.1 (NFSv4) protocol. We recommend using a current generation Linux NFSv4.1 client, such as those found in the latest Amazon Linux, Redhat, and Ubuntu AMIs, in conjunction with the Amazon EFS Mount Helper. For instructions, see Using the amazon-efs-utils Tools.
For a list of Amazon EC2 Linux Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) that support this protocol, see NFS Support. For some AMIs, you'll need to install an NFS client to mount your file system on your Amazon EC2 instance. For instructions, see Installing the NFS Client.
You can access your Amazon EFS file system concurrently from multiple NFS clients, so applications that scale beyond a single connection can access a file system. Amazon EC2 instances running in multiple Availability Zones within the same AWS Region can access the file system, so that many users can access and share a common data source.

A company's application integrates with multiple software-as-a-service (SaaS) sources for data collection. The company runs Amazon EC2 instances to receive the data and to upload the data to an Amazon S3 bucket for analysis. The same EC2 instance that receives and uploads the data also sends a notification to the user when an upload is complete. The company has noticed slow application performance and wants to improve the performance as much as possible.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

1. A. Create an Auto Scaling group so that EC2 instances can scale ou
2. B. Configure an S3 event notification to send events to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic when the upload to the S3 bucket is complete.
3. C. Create an Amazon AppFlow flow to transfer data between each SaaS source and the S3 bucket.Configure an S3 event notification to send events to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic when the upload to the S3 bucket is complete.
4. D. Create an Amazon EventBridge (Amazon CloudWatch Events) rule for each SaaS source to send output dat
5. E. Configure the S3 bucket as the rule's targe
6. F. Create a second EventBridge (CloudWatch Events) rule to send events when the upload to the S3 bucket is complet
7. G. Configure an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic as the second rule's target.
8. H. Create a Docker container to use instead of an EC2 instanc
9. I. Host the containerized application on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS). Configure Amazon CloudWatch Container Insights to send events to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic when the upload to the S3 bucket is complete.

Correct Answer: B
Amazon AppFlow is a fully managed integration service that enables you to securely transfer data between Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications like Salesforce, SAP, Zendesk, Slack, and ServiceNow, and AWS services like Amazon S3 and Amazon Redshift, in just a few clicks. https://aws.amazon.com/appflow/

A company is building a web-based application running on Amazon EC2 instances in multiple Availability Zones. The web application will provide access to a repository of text documents totaling about 900 TB in size. The company anticipates that the web application will experience periods of high demand. A solutions architect must ensure that the storage component for the text documents can scale to meet the demand of the application at all times. The company is concerned about the overall cost of the solution.
Which storage solution meets these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

1. A. Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS)
2. B. Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS)
3. C. Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES)
4. D. Amazon S3

Correct Answer: D
Amazon S3 is cheapest and can be accessed from anywhere.

A company runs a web-based portal that provides users with global breaking news, local alerts, and weather updates. The portal delivers each user a personalized view by using mixture of static and dynamic content. Content is served over HTTPS through an API server running on an Amazon EC2 instance behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The company wants the portal to provide this content to its users across the world as quickly as possible.
How should a solutions architect design the application to ensure the LEAST amount of latency for all users?

1. A. Deploy the application stack in a single AWS Regio
2. B. Use Amazon CloudFront to serve all static and dynamic content by specifying the ALB as an origin.
3. C. Deploy the application stack in two AWS Region
4. D. Use an Amazon Route 53 latency routing policy to serve all content from the ALB in the closest Region.
5. E. Deploy the application stack in a single AWS Regio
6. F. Use Amazon CloudFront to serve the static conten
7. G. Serve the dynamic content directly from the ALB.
8. H. Deploy the application stack in two AWS Region
9. I. Use an Amazon Route 53 geolocation routing policy to serve all content from the ALB in the closest Region.
