Q4. You have an application running on an EC2 Instance which will allow users to download fl ies from a private 53 bucket using a pre-assigned URL. Before generating the URL the application should verify the existence of the fi Ie in 53.
How should the application use AWS credentials to access the 53 bucket securely?

Q5. An International company has deployed a multi-tier web application that relies on DynamoDB in a single region For regulatory reasons they need disaster recovery capability In a separate region with a Recovery Time Objective of 2 hours and a Recovery Point Objective of 24 hours They should synchronize their data on a regular basis and be able to provision me web application rapidly using CIoudFormation.
The objective is to minimize changes to the existing web application, control the throughput of DynamoDB used for the synchronization of data and synchronize only the modified elements.
Which design would you choose to meet these requirements?
A. Use AWS data Pipeline to schedule a DynamoDB cross region copy once a day. create a Last updated' attribute in your DynamoDB table that would represent the timestamp of the last update and use it as a filter.
B. Use EMR and write a custom script to retrieve data from DynamoDB in the current region using a SCAN operation and push it to Dynamo DB in the second region.
C. Use AWS data Pipeline to schedule an export of the DynamoDB table to 53 in the current region once a day then schedule another task immediately after it that will import data from 53 to DynamoDB in the other region.
D. Send also each Ante into an SOS queue in me second region; use an auto-scaling group behind the SOS queue to replay the write in the second region.
Answer: A

Q7. Your manager has just given you access to multiple VPN connections that someone else has recently set up between all your company's offices. She needs you to make sure that the communication between the VPNs is secure. Which of the following services would be best for providing a low-cost hub-and-spoke model for primary or backup connectMty between these remote offices?
A. Amazon C|oudFront
B. AWS Direct Connect
C. AWS C|oudHSM
D. AWS VPN CIoudHub
Answer: D
Explanation:
If you have multiple VPN connections, you can provide secure communication between sites using the
AWS VPN CIoudHub. The VPN CIoudHub operates on a simple hub-and-spoke model that you can use with or without a VPC. This design is suitable for customers with multiple branch offices and existing Internet connections who would like to implement a convenient, potentially low-cost hub-and-spoke model for primary or backup connectMty between these remote offices.

Q10. You can seamlessly join an EC2 instance to your directory domain. What connectMty do you need to be able to connect remotely to this instance?
A. You must have IP connectMty to the instance from the network you are connecting from.
B. You must have the correct encryption keys to connect to the instance remotely.
C. You must have enough bandwidth to connect to the instance.
D. You must use MFA authentication to be able to connect to the instance remotely.
Answer: A
Explanation:
You can seamlessly join an EC2 instance to your directory domain when the instance is launched using the Amazon EC2 Simple Systems Manager. If you need to manuallyjoin an EC2 instance to your domain, you must launch the instance in the proper region and security group or subnet, then join the instance to the domain. To be able to connect remotely to these instances, you must have IP connectMty to the instances from the network you are connecting from. In most cases, this requires that an Internet gateway be attached to your VPC and that the instance has a public IP address.

Q11. You have set up an Auto Scaling group. The cool down period for the Auto Scaling group is 7 minutes. The first instance is launched after 3 minutes, while the second instance is launched after 4 minutes. How many minutes after the first instance is launched will Auto Scaling accept another scaling actMty request?
A. 11 minutes
B. 7 minutes
C. 10 minutes
D. 14 minutes
Answer: A
Explanation:
If an Auto Scaling group is launching more than one instance, the cool down period for each instance starts after that instance is launched. The group remains locked until the last instance that was launched has completed its cool down period. In this case the cool down period for the first instance starts after 3 minutes and finishes at the 10th minute (3+7 cool down), while for the second instance it starts at the 4th minute and finishes at the 11th minute (4+7 cool down). Thus, the Auto Scaling group will receive another request only after 11 minutes.

Q12. You are implementing AWS Direct Connect. You intend to use AWS public service end points such as Amazon 53, across the AWS Direct Connect link. You want other Internet traffic to use your existing link to an Internet Service Provider.
What is the correct way to configure AW5 Direct connect for access to services such as Amazon 53?
A. Configure a public Interface on your AW5 Direct Connect link Configure a static route via your AW5 Direct Connect link that points to Amazon 53 Advertise a default route to AW5 using BGP.
B. Create a private interface on your AW5 Direct Connect link. Configure a static route via your AW5 Direct connect link that points to Amazon 53 Configure specific routes to your network in your VPC,
C. Create a public interface on your AW5 Direct Connect link Redistribute BGP routes into your existing routing infrastructure advertise specific routes for your network to AW5.
D. Create a private interface on your AW5 Direct connect link. Redistribute BGP routes into your existing routing infrastructure and advertise a default route to AW5.
Answer: C
Q13. You are setting up your first Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) so you decide to use the VPC wizard in the AWS console to help make it easier for you. Which of the following statements is correct regarding instances that you launch into a default subnet via the VPC wizard?
A. Instances that you launch into a default subnet receive a public IP address and 10 private IP addresses.
B. Instances that you launch into a default subnet receive both a public IP address and a private IP address.
C. Instances that you launch into a default subnet don't receive any ip addresses and you need to define them manually.
D. Instances that you launch into a default subnet receive a public IP address and 5 private IP addresses.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Instances that you launch into a default subnet receive both a public IP address and a private IP address. Instances in a default subnet also receive both public and private DNS hostnames. Instances that you launch into a nondefault subnet in a default VPC don't receive a public IP address or a DNS hostname. You can change your subnet's default public IP addressing behavior.

Q14. You've created your first load balancer and have registered your EC2 instances with the load balancer. Elastic Load Balancing routinely performs health checks on all the registered EC2 instances and automatically distributes all incoming requests to the DNS name of your load balancer across your registered, healthy EC2 instances. By default, the load balancer uses the _ protocol for checking the health of your instances.
A. HTTPS
B. HTTP
C. ICMP
D. IPv6
Answer: B
Explanation:
In Elastic Load Balancing a health configuration uses information such as protocol, ping port, ping path (URL), response timeout period, and health check interval to determine the health state of the instances registered with the load balancer.
Currently, HTTP on port 80 is the default health check. Reference:
