Which of the following statements are true about AWS Shared Responsibility Model? (Select
two)
AWS is responsible for patching and fixing flaws within the infrastructure, but customers are
responsible for patching their guest operating system and applications
AWS trains AWS employees, but a customer must train their own employees
“Security of the Cloud” is the responsibility of AWS - AWS is responsible for protecting the
infrastructure that runs all of the services offered in the AWS Cloud. This infrastructure is
composed of the hardware, software, networking, and facilities that run AWS Cloud services.
As part of Patch Management, a Shared Control responsibility of AWS Shared Responsibility
Model, AWS is responsible for patching and fixing flaws within the infrastructure, but
customers are responsible for patching their guest OS and applications.
“Security in the Cloud” is the responsibility of the customer. Customer responsibility will be
determined by the AWS Cloud services that a customer selects. This determines the amount
of configuration work the customer must perform as part of their security responsibilities.
As part of Awareness & Training, a Shared Control responsibility of the AWS Shared
Responsibility Model, AWS trains AWS employees, but a customer must train their own
employees.
Which of the following are NoSQL database services from AWS? (Select two)
Amazon Neptune
A graph database’s purpose is to make it easy to build and run applications that work with
highly connected datasets. Typical use cases for a graph database include social networking,
recommendation engines, fraud detection, and knowledge graphs. Amazon Neptune is a fully-
managed graph database service and it's also considered as a type of NoSQL database.
Amazon DocumentDB
In application code, data is represented often as an object or JSON-like document because it is
an efficient and intuitive data model for developers. Document databases make it easier for
developers to store and query data in a database by using the same document model format
that they use in their application code. Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility)
,and MongoDB are popular document databases that provide powerful and intuitive APIs for
flexible and iterative development.
Which of the following AWS services is delivered globally rather than regionally?
Amazon WorkSpaces
AWS offers a broad set of global cloud-based products including compute, storage, database,
analytics, networking, machine learning and AI, mobile, developer tools, IoT, security,
enterprise applications, and much more.
Due to the nature of the service, some AWS services are delivered globally rather than
regionally, such as Amazon Route 53, Amazon Chime, Amazon WorkDocs, Amazon WorkMail,
Amazon WorkSpaces, Amazon WorkLink.
Amazon WorkSpaces is a managed, secure Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) solution. You can use
Amazon WorkSpaces to provision either Windows or Linux desktops in just a few minutes and
quickly scale to provide thousands of desktops to workers across the globe.
A weather-tracking application is built using Amazon DynamoDB. The performance of the
application has been consistently good. But lately, the team has realized that during holidays
and travel seasons, the load on the application is high and the read requests consume most of
the database resources, thereby drastically increasing the overall application latency.
Which feature/service will help resolve this issue?
Amazon DynamoDB Accelerator
Amazon DynamoDB is designed for scale and performance. In most cases, the DynamoDB
response times can be measured in single-digit milliseconds. However, there are certain use
cases that require response times in microseconds. For these use cases, Amazon DynamoDB
Accelerator (DAX) delivers fast response times for accessing eventually consistent data.
DAX is a DynamoDB-compatible caching service that enables you to benefit from fast in-
memory performance for demanding applications. DAX addresses three core scenarios:
As an in-memory cache, DAX reduces the response times of eventually consistent read
workloads by an order of magnitude from single-digit milliseconds to microseconds.
DAX reduces operational and application complexity by providing a managed service that is
API-compatible with DynamoDB. Therefore, it requires only minimal functional changes to
use with an existing application.
, For read-heavy or bursty workloads, DAX provides increased throughput and potential
operational cost savings by reducing the need to overprovision read capacity units. This is
especially beneficial for applications that require repeated reads for individual keys.
A blogging company is looking at an easy to use solution to host WordPress blogs. The
company needs a cost-effective, readily available solution without the need to manage the
configurations for servers or the databases.
Which AWS service will help you achieve this functionality?
Amazon Lightsail
Amazon Lightsail is the easiest way to get started with AWS for developers, small businesses,
students, and other users who need a solution to build and host their applications on the
cloud. Lightsail provides developers with compute, storage, and networking capacity and
capabilities to deploy and manage websites and web applications in the cloud. Lightsail
includes everything you need to launch your project quickly – virtual machines, containers,
databases, CDN, load balancers, DNS management, etc. – for a low, predictable monthly price.
You can get preconfigured virtual private server (VPS) plans that include everything to easily
deploy and manage your application. Amazon Lightsail is best suited to projects that require a
few virtual private servers and users who prefer a simple management interface. Common
use cases for Lightsail include running websites, web applications, blogs, e-commerce sites,
simple software, and more.
Also referred to as a bundle, a Lightsail plan includes a virtual server with a fixed amount of
memory (RAM) and compute (vCPUs), SSD-based storage (disks), and a free data transfer
allowance. Amazon Lightsail plans also offer static IP addresses (5 per account) and DNS
management (3 domain zones per account). Lightsail plans are charged on an hourly, on-
demand basis, so you only pay for a plan when you're using it.
Amazon Lightsail offers a number of preconfigured, one-click-to-launch operating systems,
development stacks, and web applications, including Linux and Windows OS, WordPress,
LAMP, CentOS, and more.
A company has defined a baseline that mentions the number of AWS resources to be used for
different stages of application testing. However, the company realized that employees are not
adhering to the guidelines and provisioning additional resources via API calls, resulting in
higher testing costs.
Which AWS service will help the company raise alarms whenever the baseline resource
numbers are crossed?
