AWS Certified Solutions Architect
Chapter Exams 2022/2023
Which of the following describes a physical location around the world where AWS
clusters data centers?
1. Endpoint
2. Collection
3. Fleet
4. Region - ANS-4
D.
A region is a named set of AWS resources in the same
geographical area. A region comprises at least two availability zones. Endpoint,
Collection, and Fleet do not describe a physical location around the world where
AWS clusters data centers.
Each AWS region is composed of two or more locations that offer organizations the
ability to operate production systems that are more highly available, fault tolerant,
and scalable than would be possible using a single data center. What are these
locations called?
1. Availability zones
2. Replication areas
3. Geographic districts
4. Compute centers - ANS-1
A.
An availability zone is a distinct location within a region that
is insulated from failures in other availability zones and provides inexpensive, lowlatency network connectivity to other availability zones in the same region.
Replication areas, geographic districts, and compute centers are not terms used to
describe AWS data center locations.
What is the deployment term for an environment that extends an existing onpremises infrastructure into the cloud to connect cloud resources to internal
systems?
1. All-in deployment
2. Hybrid deployment
3. On-premises deployment
4. Scatter deployment - ANS-2
B.
A hybrid deployment is a way to connect infrastructure and
applications between cloud-based resources and existing resources that are not
located in the cloud. An all-in deployment refers to an environment that exclusively
runs in the cloud. An on-premises deployment refers to an environment that runs
exclusively in an organization's data center.
Which AWS Cloud service allows organizations to gain system-wide visibility into
resource utilization, application performance, and operational health?
1. AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)
2. Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS)
3. Amazon CloudWatch
4. AWS CloudFormation - ANS-3
C.
Amazon CloudWatch is a monitoring service for AWS
Cloud resources and the applications organizations run on AWS. It allows
organizations to collect and track metrics, collect and monitor log files, and set
alarms. AWS IAM, Amazon SNS, and AWS CloudFormation do not provide visibility
into resource utilization, application performance, and the operational health of your
AWS resources.
Which of the following AWS Cloud services is a fully managed NoSQL database
service?
1. Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS)
2. Amazon DynamoDB
3. Amazon ElastiCache
4. Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) - ANS-2
B.
Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed, fast, and flexible
NoSQL database service for all applications that need consistent, single-digit
millisecond latency at any scale. Amazon SQS, Amazon ElastiCache, and Amazon
RDS do not provide a NoSQL database service. Amazon SQS is a managed
message queuing service. Amazon ElastiCache is a service that provides in-memory
cache in the cloud. Finally, Amazon RDS provides managed relational databases.
Your company experiences fluctuations in traffic patterns to their e-commerce
website based on flash sales. What service can help your company dynamically
match the required compute capacity to the spike in traffic during flash sales?
1. Auto Scaling
2. Amazon Glacier
3. Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS)
4. Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) - ANS-1
A.
Auto Scaling helps maintain application availability and
allows organizations to scale Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2)
capacity up or down automatically according to conditions defined for the particular
workload. Not only can it be used to help ensure that the desired number of Amazon
EC2 instances are running, but it also allows resources to scale in and out to match
the demands of dynamic workloads. Amazon Glacier, Amazon SNS, and Amazon
VPC do not provide services to scale compute capacity automatically.
Your company provides an online photo sharing service. The development team is
looking for ways to deliver image files with the lowest latency to end users so the
website content is delivered with the best possible performance. What service can
help speed up distribution of these image files to end users around the world?
1. Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2)
2. Amazon Route 53
3. AWS Storage Gateway
4. Amazon CloudFront - ANS-4
D.
Amazon CloudFront is a web service that provides a CDN
to speed up distribution of your static and dynamic web content—for example, .html,
.css, .php, image, and media files—to end users. Amazon CloudFront delivers
content through a worldwide network of edge locations. Amazon EC2, Amazon
Route 53, and AWS Storage Gateway do not provide CDN services that are required
to meet the needs for the photo sharing service.
