How should the solutions architect design a highly available solution that meets the requirements and is cost-effective? A. Establish AWS Direct Connect connections from the company headquarters to all AWS Regions in use. Use the company WAN to send traffic over to the headquarters and then to the respective DX connection to access the data. B. Establish two AWS Direct Connect connections from the company headquarters to an AWS Region. Use the company WAN to send traffic over a DX connection.

A company runs a highly available data collection application on Amazon EC2 in the eu-north-1 Region. The application collects data from end-user devices and writes records to an Amazon Kinesis data stream and a set of AWS Lambda functions that process the records. The company persists the output of the record processing to an Amazon S3 bucket in eu-north-1. The company uses the data in the S3 bucket as a data source for Amazon Athena. The company wants to increase its global presence. A solutions architect must launch the data collection capabilities in the sa-east-1 and ap-northeast-1 Regions. The solutions architect deploys the application, the Kinesis data stream, and the Lambda functions in the two new Regions. The solutions architect keeps the S3 bucket in eu-north-1 to meet a requirement to centralize the data analysis.

A company wants to migrate its website to AWS. The website uses microservices and runs on containers that are deployed in an on-premises, self-managed Kubernetes cluster. All the manifests that define the deployments for the containers in the Kubernetes deployment are in source control. All data for the website is stored in a PostgreSQL database. An open source container image repository runs alongside the on-premises environment. A solutions architect needs to determine the architecture that the company will use for the website on AWS. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST effort to migrate? A. Create an AWS App Runner service. Connect the App Runner service to the open source container image repository.

A company uses a mobile app on AWS to run online contests. The company selects a winner at random at the end of each contest. The contests run for variable lengths of time. The company does not need to retain any data from a contest after the contest is finished. The company uses custom code that is hosted on Amazon EC2 instances to process the contest data and select a winner.

A company has implemented a new security requirement. According to the new requirement, the company must scan all traffic from corporate AWS instances in the company's VPC for violations of the company's security policies. As a result of these scans, the company can block access to and from specific IP addresses. To meet the new requirement, the company deploys a set of Amazon EC2 instances in private subnets to serve as transparent proxies. The company installs approved proxy server software on these EC2 instances. The company modifies the route tables on all subnets to use the corresponding EC2 instances with proxy software as the default route. The company also creates security groups that are compliant with the security policies and assigns these security groups to the EC2 instances. Despite these configurations, the traffic of the EC2 instances in their private subnets is not being properly forwarded to the internet. What should a solutions architect do to resolve this issue? A. Disable source/destination checks on the EC2 instances that run the proxy software. B. Add a rule to the security group that is assigned to the proxy EC2 instances to allow all traffic between instances that have this security group. Assign this security group to all EC2 instances in the VPC. C. Change the VPCs DHCP options set. Set the DNS server options to point to the addresses of the proxy EC2 instances. D. Assign one additional elastic network interface to each proxy EC2 instance. Ensure that one of these network interfaces has a route to the private subnets. Ensure that the other network interface has a route to the internet.Disable source/destination checks on the EC2 instances that run the proxy software.

A retail company is operating its ecommerce application on AWS. The application runs on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The company uses an Amazon RDS DB instance as the database backend. Amazon CloudFront is configured with one origin that points to the ALB. Static content is cached. Amazon Route 53 is used to host all public zones. After an update of the application, the ALB occasionally returns a 502 status code (Bad Gateway) error. The root cause is malformed HTTP headers that are returned to the ALB. The webpage returns successfully when a solutions architect reloads the webpage immediately after the error occurs.
