Questions 6

A DevOps engineer has implemented a Cl/CO pipeline to deploy an AWS Cloud Format ion template that provisions a web application. The web application consists of an Application Load Balancer (ALB) a target group, a launch template that uses an Amazon Linux 2 AMI an Auto Scaling group of Amazon EC2 instances, a security group and an Amazon RDS for MySQL database The launch template includes user data that specifies a script to install and start the application.

The initial deployment of the application was successful. The DevOps engineer made changes to update the version of the application with the user data. The CI/CD pipeline has deployed a new version of the template However, the health checks on the ALB are now failing The health checks have marked all targets as unhealthy.

During investigation the DevOps engineer notices that the Cloud Formation stack has a status of UPDATE_COMPLETE. However, when the DevOps engineer connects to one of the EC2 instances and checks /varar/log messages, the DevOps engineer notices that the Apache web server failed to start successfully because of a configuration error

Questions 11

A company uses Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) for all images of the company's containerized infrastructure. The company uses the pull through cache functionality with the /external prefix to avoid throttling when the company retrieves images from external image registries. The company uses AWS Organizations for its accounts.

Every image in the registry must be encrypted with a specific, pre-provisioned AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) key. The company's internally created images already comply with this policy. However, cached external images use server-side encryption with Amazon S3 managed keys (SSE-S3).

The company must remove the noncompliant cache repositories. The company must also implement a secure solution to ensure that all new pull through cache repositories are automatically encrypted with the required KMS key.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

A.

Configure AWS Config. Add a custom rule that uses Guard syntax. Write the rule to enable KMS encryption for new repositories.

B.

Configure an ECR repository creation template for the prefix. Specify the KMS key. Wait for the repositories to repopulate.

C.

Configure an SCP for all AWS accounts that requires all ECR repositories to be KMS encrypted.

A company has developed an AWS Lambda function that handles orders received through an API. The company is using AWS CodeDeploy to deploy the Lambda function as the final stage of a CI/CD pipeline.

A DevOps engineer has noticed there are intermittent failures of the ordering API for a few seconds after deployment. After some investigation the DevOps engineer believes the failures are due to database changes not having fully propagated before the Lambda function is invoked

Options:

A.

Add a BeforeAllowTraffic hook to the AppSpec file that tests and waits for any necessary database changes before traffic can flow to the new version of the Lambda function.

B.

Add an AfterAlIowTraffic hook to the AppSpec file that forces traffic to wait for any pending database changes before allowing the new version of the Lambda function to respond.

C.

Add a BeforeAllowTraffic hook to the AppSpec file that tests and waits for any necessary database changes before deploying the new version of the Lambda function.

D.

Add a validateService hook to the AppSpec file that inspects incoming traffic and rejects the payload if dependent services such as the database are not yet ready.

A company builds a container image in an AWS CodeBuild project by running Docker commands. After the container image is built, the CodeBuild project uploads the container image to an Amazon S3 bucket. The CodeBuild project has an 1AM service role that has permissions to access the S3 bucket.

A DevOps engineer needs to replace the S3 bucket with an Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) repository to store the container images. The DevOps engineer creates an ECR private image repository in the same AWS Region of the CodeBuild project.

A company has deployed an application in a production VPC in a single AWS account. The application is popular and is experiencing heavy usage. The company’s security team wants to add additional security, such as AWS WAF, to the application deployment. However, the application's product manager is concerned about cost and does not want to approve the change unless the security team can prove that additional security is necessary.

The security team believes that some of the application's demand might come from users that have IP addresses that are on a deny list. The security team provides the deny list to a DevOps engineer. If any of the IP addresses on the deny list access the application, the security team wants to receive automated notification in near real time so that the security team can document that the application needs additional security.

A company has deployed an Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) cluster with Amazon EC2 node groups. The company's DevOps team uses the Kubernetes Horizontal Pod Autoscaler and recently installed a supported EKS cluster Autoscaler.

The DevOps team needs to implement a solution to collect metrics and logs of the EKS cluster to establish a baseline for performance. The DevOps team will create an initial set of thresholds for specific metrics and will update the thresholds over time as the cluster is used. The DevOps team must receive an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) email notification if the initial set of thresholds is exceeded or if the EKS cluster Autoscaler is not functioning properly.

Questions 124

A company has a single AWS account that runs hundreds of Amazon EC2 instances in a single AWS Region. New EC2 instances are launched and terminated each hour in the account. The account also includes existing EC2 instances that have been running for longer than a week.

The company's security policy requires all running EC2 instances to use an EC2 instance profile. If an EC2 instance does not have an instance profile attached, the EC2 instance must use a default instance profile that has no IAM permissions assigned.

A DevOps engineer reviews the account and discovers EC2 instances that are running without an instance profile. During the review, the DevOps engineer also observes that new EC2 instances are being launched without an instance profile.

Which solution will ensure that an instance profile is attached to all existing and future EC2 instances in the Region?

Options:

A.

Configure an Amazon EventBridge rule that reacts to EC2 RunInstances API calls. Configure the rule to invoke an AWS Lambda function to attach the default instance profile to the EC2 instances.

B.

Configure the ec2-instance-profile-attached AWS Config managed rule with a trigger type of configuration changes. Configure an automatic remediation action that invokes an AWS Systems Manager Automation runbook to attach the default instance profile to the EC2 instances.

C.
