Questions and Answers

A company plans to use an Amazon Snowball Edge device to transfer files to the AWS Cloud. Which activities related to a Snowball Edge device are available to the company at no cost?

  • The transfer of data from the Snowball Edge appliance into Amazon S3 (correct)
  • Daily use of the Snowball Edge appliance after 10 days
  • Use of the Snowball Edge appliance for a 10-day period
  • The transfer of data out of Amazon S3 and to the Snowball Edge appliance
  • A company has deployed applications on Amazon EC2 instances. The company needs to assess application vulnerabilities and must identify infrastructure deployments that do not meet best practices. Which AWS service can the company use to meet these requirements?

  • AWS Config
  • Amazon Inspector (correct)
  • AWS Trusted Advisor
  • Amazon GuardDuty
  • A company has a centralized group of users with large file storage requirements that have exceeded the space available on premises. The company wants to extend its file storage capabilities for this group while retaining the performance benefit of sharing content locally. What is the MOST operationally efficient AWS solution for this scenario?

  • Configure and deploy an AWS Storage Gateway file gateway. Connect each user’s workstation to the file gateway. (correct)
  • Deploy an Amazon EC2 instance and attach an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) Provisioned IOPS volume. Share the EBS volume directly with the users.
  • Move each user’s working environment to Amazon WorkSpaces. Set up an Amazon WorkDocs account for each user.
  • Create an Amazon S3 bucket for each user. Mount each bucket by using an S3 file system mounting utility.
  • According to security best practices, how should an Amazon EC2 instance be given access to an Amazon S3 bucket?

    Study Notes

    Snowball Edge Device Usage Costs

    • Data transfer into Amazon S3 is free per GB.
    • Initial 10-day usage of a Storage Optimized 80TB Snowball Edge device is included in the on-demand service fee.
    • Data transfer out of Amazon S3 to a Snowball Edge device incurs charges.

    AWS Service for Application Vulnerability Assessment

    • Amazon Inspector assesses application vulnerabilities and identifies infrastructure deployments that don't meet best practices on EC2 instances.

    AWS Solution for Extending File Storage

    • AWS Storage Gateway file gateway enables seamless connection between on-premises applications and Amazon S3 storage, preserving local access performance.

    Secure EC2 S3 Bucket Access

    • Use IAM roles to grant temporary permissions to EC2 instances to upload to S3, minimizing credential exposure.

    Customer Responsibility for DynamoDB

    • Managing access control to DynamoDB tables (e.g., IAM policies) is the customer's responsibility.

    AWS Cloud Adoption Framework (AWS CAF) Perspective

    • The relevant perspective is "Governance," which involves managing AWS resources through policies and controls.

    AWS Service for Docker Environment Management

    • AWS Fargate is a compute engine for Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) enabling container management without server administration.

    AWS Responsibility for EC2 Instance Operation

    • Maintaining the physical infrastructure hosting EC2 instances is an AWS responsibility.

    AWS Services for EC2 Instance Rightsizing

    • AWS Cost Explorer provides cost and usage reporting with rightsizing implications.
    • AWS Compute Optimizer analyzes EC2 usage and gives rightsizing recommendations.

    AWS Trusted Advisor Benefits

    • Identifying underutilized resources for cost savings is a benefit.
    • Proactive security monitoring and best practices recommendations are also key benefits.
