A startup has developed an application that gathers data from Internet of Things (IoT) sensors installed on autos. Through Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, the data is transmitted to and stored in Amazon S3. Each year, data generates billions of S3 objects. Each morning, the business retrains a set of machine learning (ML) models using data from the preceding 30 days.Four times a year, the corporation analyzes and trains other machine learning models using data from the preceding 12 months. The data must be accessible with a minimum of delay for a period of up to one year. Data must be preserved for archive reasons after one year.
Which storage system best satisfies these criteria in terms of cost-effectiveness?
Use the S3 Intelligent-Tiering storage class. Create an S3 Lifecycle policy to transition objects to S3 Glacier Deep Archive after 1 year.
Use the S3 Intelligent-Tiering storage class. Configure S3 Intelligent-Tiering to automativally move objects to S3 Glacier Deep Archive after 1 year.

Use the S3 Standard storage class. Create an S3 Lifecycle policy to transition objects to S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) after 30 days, and then to S3 Glacier Deep Archive after 1 year.
A newly formed company developed a three-tiered web application. The front end is comprised entirely of static information. Microservices form the application layer. User data is kept in the form of JSON documents that must be accessible with a minimum of delay. The firm anticipates minimal regular traffic in the first year, with monthly traffic spikes. The startup team's operational overhead expenditures must be kept to a minimum.
What should a solutions architect suggest as a means of achieving this?
Use Amazon S3 static website hosting to store and serve the front end. Use AWS Elastic Beanstalk for the application layer. Use Amazon DynamoDB to store user data.
Use Amazon S3 static website hosting to store and serve the front end. Use Amazon Elastic KubernetesService (Amazon EKS) for the application layer. Use Amazon DynamoDB to store user data.
Use Amazon S3 static website hosting to store and serve the front end. Use Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda functions for the application layer. Use Amazon DynamoDB to store user data.
Use Amazon S3 static website hosting to store and serve the front end. Use Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda functions for the application layer. Use Amazon RDS with read replicas to store user data.
A business wishes to migrate from many independent Amazon Web Services accounts to a consolidated, multi-account design. The organization intends to generate a large number of new AWS accounts for its business divisions. The organization must use a single corporate directory service to authenticate access to these AWS accounts.
Which steps should a solutions architect advocate in order to satisfy these requirements? (Select two.)
Create a new organization in AWS Organizations with all features turned on. Create the new AWS accounts in the organization.
Set up an Amazon Cognito identity pool. Configure AWS Single Sign-On to accept Amazon Cognito authentication.
Configure a service control policy (SCP) to manage the AWS accounts. Add AWS Single Sign-On to AWS Directory Service.
Create a new organization in AWS Organizations. Configure the organizationג€™s authentication mechanism to use AWS Directory Service directly.
Set up AWS Single Sign-On (AWS SSO) in the organization. Configure AWS SSO, and integrate it with the company's corporate directory service.
On Amazon Aurora, a business is operating a database. Every nightfall, the database is inactive. When user traffic surges in the early hours, an application that makes large reads on the database will face performance concerns. When reading from the database during these peak hours, the program encounters timeout issues. Due to the lack of a dedicated operations crew, the organization need an automated solution to solve performance concerns.
Which activities should a solutions architect take to ensure that the database automatically adjusts to the increasing read load? (Select two.)
Migrate the database to Aurora Serverless.
Increase the instance size of the Aurora database.
Configure Aurora Auto Scaling with Aurora Replicas.
Migrate the database to an Aurora multi-master cluster.
Migrate the database to an Amazon RDS for MySQL Multi-AZ deployment.
A business uses Amazon EC2 instances to operate an API-based inventory reporting application. The program makes use of an Amazon DynamoDB database to store data. The distribution centers of the corporation use an on-premises shipping application that communicates with an API to update inventory prior to generating shipping labels. Each day, the organization has seen application outages, resulting in missed transactions.
What should a solutions architect propose to increase the resilience of an application?
Modify the shipping application to write to a local database.
Modify the application APIs to run serverless using AWS Lambda
Configure Amazon API Gateway to call the EC2 inventory application APIs.
Modify the application to send inventory updates using Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS).
A business is in the process of migrating its on-premises application to AWS. Program servers and a Microsoft SQL Server database comprise the application. The database cannot be transferred to another engine due to the application's NET code using SQL Server functionality. The company's goal is to maximize availability while decreasing operational and administration costs.
What actions should a solutions architect take to achieve this?
Install SQL Server on Amazon EC2 in a Multi-AZ deployment.
Migrate the data to Amazon RDS for SQL Server in a Multi-AZ deployment.
Deploy the database on Amazon RDS for SQL Server with Multi-AZ Replicas.
Migrate the data to Amazon RDS for SQL Server in a cross-Region Multi-AZ deployment.
A business intends to transfer a TCP-based application onto the company's virtual private cloud (VPC). The program is available to the public over an unsupported TCP port via a physical device located in the company's data center. This public endpoint has a latency of less than 3 milliseconds and can handle up to 3 million requests per second. The organization needs the new public endpoint in AWS to function at the same level of performance. What solution architecture approach should be recommended to satisfy this requirement?
Deploy a Network Load Balancer (NLB). Configure the NLB to be publicly accessible over the TCP port that the application requires.
Deploy an Application Load Balancer (ALB). Configure the ALB to be publicly accessible over the TCP port that the application requires.
Deploy an Amazon CloudFront distribution that listens on the TCP port that the application requires. Use an Application Load Balancer as the origin.
Deploy an Amazon API Gateway API that is configured with the TCP port that the application requires. Configure AWS Lambda functions with provisioned concurrency to process the requests.
Within the same AWS account, a firm has two VPCs situated in the us-west-2 Region. The business must permit network communication between these VPCs. Each month, about 500 GB of data will be transferred between the VPCs.
Which approach is the MOST cost-effective for connecting these VPCs?
Implement AWS Transit Gateway to connect the VPCs. Update the route tables of each VPC to use the transit gateway for inter-VPC communication.
Implement an AWS Site-to-Site VPN tunnel between the VPCs. Update the route tables of each VPC to use the VPN tunnel for inter-VPC communication.
