NEW QUESTION # 185
A company is moving its fraud detection application from on premises to the AWS Cloud and is using Amazon Neptune for data storage. The company has set up a 1 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection to migrate 25 TB of fraud detection data from the on-premises data center to a Neptune DB instance. The company already has an Amazon S3 bucket and an S3 VPC endpoint, and 80% of the company's network bandwidth is available.
How should the company perform this data load?

  • A. Use an AWS SDK with a multipart upload to transfer the data from on premises to the S3 bucket. Use the Copy command for Neptune to move the data in bulk from the S3 bucket to the Neptune DB instance.
  • B. Use the AWS CLI to transfer the data from on premises to the S3 bucket. Use the Copy command for Neptune to move the data in bulk from the S3 bucket to the Neptune DB instance.
  • C. Use AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) to transfer the data from on premises to the S3 bucket. Use the Loader command for Neptune to move the data in bulk from the S3 bucket to the Neptune DB instance.
  • D. Use AWS DataSync to transfer the data from on premises to the S3 bucket. Use the Loader command for Neptune to move the data in bulk from the S3 bucket to the Neptune DB instance.

NEW QUESTION # 186
A company is using 5 TB Amazon RDS DB instances and needs to maintain 5 years of monthly database backups for compliance purposes. A Database Administrator must provide Auditors with data within 24 hours. Which solution will meet these requirements and is the MOST operationally efficient?

  • A. Create an AWS Lambda function to run on the first day of every month to create an automated RDS snapshot.
  • B. Create an RDS snapshot schedule from the AWS Management Console to take a snapshot every 30 days.
  • C. Create an AWS Lambda function to run on the first day of every month to take a manual RDS snapshot.
  • D. Create an AWS Lambda function to run on the first day of every month to take a manual RDS snapshot. Move the snapshot to the company's Amazon S3 bucket.

Answer: D

Explanation:
Unlike automated backups, manual snapshots aren't subject to the backup retention period. Snapshots don't expire. For very long-term backups of MariaDB, MySQL, and PostgreSQL data, we recommend exporting snapshot data to Amazon S3. If the major version of your DB engine is no longer supported, you can't restore to that version from a snapshot. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER_CreateSnapshot.html

NEW QUESTION # 188
A database specialist wants to ensure that an Amazon Aurora DB cluster is always automatically upgraded to the most recent minor version available. Noticing that there is a new minor version available, the database specialist has issues an AWS CLI command to enable automatic minor version updates. The command runs successfully, but checking the Aurora DB cluster indicates that no update to the Aurora version has been made.
What might account for this? (Choose two.)

  • A. Applying minor version upgrades requires sufficient free space.
  • B. The AWS CLI command did not include an apply-immediately parameter.
  • C. Aurora has detected a breaking change in the new minor version and has automatically rejected the upgrade.
  • D. The new minor version has not yet been designated as preferred and requires a manual upgrade.
  • E. Configuring automatic upgrades using the AWS CLI is not supported. This must be enabled expressly using the AWS Management Console.

Answer: B,D

Explanation:
"When Amazon RDS designates a minor engine version as the preferred minor engine version, each database that meets both of the following conditions is upgraded to the minor engine version automatically"
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER_UpgradeDBInstance.Upgrading.html Call the modify-db-instance Amazon CLI command. Specify the name of your DB instance for the --db-instance-identifier option and true for the --auto-minor-version-upgrade option.

  • C. Leverage an Amazon Redshift data warehouse solution using a dense storage instance type while keeping all the data on local Amazon Redshift storage. Provision enough instances to support high demand.
  • D. Leverage an Amazon Redshift data warehouse solution using a dense storage instance to store the most recent data. Keep historical data on Amazon S3 and access it using the Amazon Redshift Spectrum layer. Leverage Amazon Redshift elastic resize.
    https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/concurrency-scaling.html
    "With the Concurrency Scaling feature, you can support virtually unlimited concurrent users and concurrent queries, with consistently fast query performance. When concurrency scaling is enabled, Amazon Redshift automatically adds additional cluster capacity when you need it to process an increase in concurrent read queries. Write operations continue as normal on your main cluster. Users always see the most current data, whether the queries run on the main cluster or on a concurrency scaling cluster. You're charged for concurrency scaling clusters only for the time they're in use. For more information about pricing, see Amazon Redshift pricing. You manage which queries are sent to the concurrency scaling cluster by configuring WLM queues. When you enable concurrency scaling for a queue, eligible queries are sent to the concurrency scaling cluster instead of waiting in line."

NEW QUESTION # 193
A company is running critical applications on AWS. Most of the application deployments use Amazon Aurora MySQL for the database stack. The company uses AWS CloudFormation to deploy the DB instances.
The company's application team recently implemented a CI/CD pipeline. A database engineer needs to integrate the database deployment CloudFormation stack with the newly built CllCD platform. Updates to the CloudFormation stack must not update existing production database resources.
Which CloudFormation stack policy action should the database engineer implement to meet these requirements?

  • A. Use a Deny statement for the Update:Replace action on the production database resources.
  • B. Use a Deny statement for the Update:Delete action on the production database resources.
  • C. Use a Deny statement for the action on the production database resources.
  • D. Use a Deny statement for the Update:Modify action on the production database resources.

Answer: A

Explanation:
Explanation from Amazon documents:
A CloudFormation stack policy is a JSON document that defines the update actions that can be performed on designated resources in a CloudFormation stack. A stack policy can be used to prevent accidental updates or deletions of stack resources, such as a production database.
The Update:Replace action is an update action that replaces an existing resource with a new one during a stack update. This action can cause data loss or downtime for the resource. To prevent this action from affecting the production database resources, the database engineer should use a Deny statement for the Update:Replace action on the production database resources in the stack policy. This statement will override any Allow statements for the same action and resource, and protect the production database resources from being replaced during a stack update.
Therefore, option D is the correct stack policy action to meet the requirements. Option A is incorrect because the Update:Modify action is not a valid update action for a stack policy. The valid update actions are Update:Replace, Update:Skip, and Delete. Option B is incorrect because it does not specify a valid update action for the Deny statement. Option C is incorrect because the Update:Delete action is not a valid update action for a stack policy. The valid update actions are Update:Replace, Update:Skip, and Delete.

NEW QUESTION # 204
An online advertising website uses an Amazon DynamoDB table with on-demand capacity mode as its data store. The website also has a DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) cluster in the same VPC as its web application server. The application needs to perform infrequent writes and many strongly consistent reads from the data store by querying the DAX cluster.
During a performance audit, a systems administrator notices that the application can look up items by using the DAX cluster. However, the QueryCacheHits metric for the DAX cluster consistently shows 0 while the QueryCacheMisses metric continuously keeps growing in Amazon CloudWatch.
What is the MOST likely reason for this occurrence?

  • A. Strongly consistent reads are always passed through DAX to DynamoDB.
  • B. A VPC endpoint was not added to access DynamoDB.
  • C. A VPC endpoint was not added to access CloudWatch.
  • D. DynamoDB is scaling due to a burst in traffic, resulting in degraded performance.

Answer: A

Explanation:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/DAX.concepts.html
"If the request specifies strongly consistent reads, DAX passes the request through to DynamoDB. The results from DynamoDB are not cached in DAX. Instead, they are simply returned to the application."
