Study Notes
AWS Security and Access Management Best Practices
- The use of AWS Organization IDs and paths can streamline the management of S3 bucket policies and access control.
- The aws:PrincipalOrgID global condition key can be added to an S3 bucket policy to allow access to members of a specific organization.
- AWS CloudTrail can be used to monitor specific events related to AWS Organization, and S3 bucket policies can be updated accordingly based on the events.
- Tagging each user that needs access to an S3 bucket and adding the aws:PrincipalTag global condition key to the S3 bucket policy can enhance access control.
- To ensure that Amazon S3 buckets do not have unauthorized configuration changes, turning on AWS Config with appropriate rules is recommended.
- AWS Config provides a detailed view of resource configurations and allows for the identification and remediation of unauthorized changes to S3 buckets.
- To provide secure access to an Amazon S3 bucket from an application tier running on Amazon EC2 instances in a VPC, configuring a VPC gateway endpoint for Amazon S3 within the VPC and creating a bucket policy that limits access to only the application tier running in the VPC are recommended steps.
- Sharing an Amazon CloudWatch dashboard with a product manager while following the principle of least privilege involves creating an IAM user specifically for the product manager and attaching the CloudWatch Read Only Access managed policy to the user.
- The CloudWatch Read Only Access managed policy allows the user to view the dashboard without the ability to make changes.
- To guarantee Amazon EC2 capacity in specific Availability Zones for a specific AWS Region for an upcoming event, creating an On-Demand Capacity Reservation that specifies the Region and three Availability Zones is the recommended approach.
- This approach ensures the availability of the required capacity for the specified duration and locations without the need for upfront payments or long-term commitments.
- The use of AWS best practices in security and access management, such as leveraging organization IDs, CloudTrail monitoring, and IAM policies, can enhance the security and efficiency of AWS deployments.

- Supports SMB and NFS protocols and S3 Lifecycle policies for data transition
- S3 Lifecycle policy can automatically transition data from S3 Standard to S3 Glacier Deep Archive
- AWS DataSync is an online data movement and discovery service for data migration
- AWS DataSync agent needs to be installed in the on-premises data center
- Suitable location configuration for the on-premises SFTP server needs to be created using AWS DataSync
- Application Load Balancer (ALB) can be configured to redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS
- ALB can handle HTTP and HTTPS traffic separately
- ALB listener rule can be created to redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS
- Least privilege principle can be applied to configure permissions for an AWS Lambda function
- AWS Lambda function can be invoked by an Amazon EventBridge (Amazon CloudWatch Events) rule
- AWS Secrets Manager can be used to store and rotate credentials for Amazon RDS for MySQL databases across multiple AWS Regions
AWS Operational Efficiency Solutions
- A company with thousands of edge devices generating 1 TB of status alerts daily needs a cost-effective and highly available solution for ingesting and storing the alerts for future analysis.
- The company requires a solution that minimizes costs and does not require additional infrastructure management, while keeping 14 days of data available for immediate analysis and archiving any data older than 14 days.
- The most operationally efficient solution is to create an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream to ingest the alerts, configure it to deliver the alerts to an Amazon S3 bucket, and set up an S3 Lifecycle configuration to transition data to Amazon S3 Glacier after 14 days.
- A company collects temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure data in cities across multiple continents, with an average volume of 500 GB per site daily and high-speed internet connections.
- To aggregate data from all global sites, the fastest way is to enable Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration on the destination bucket.
- Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration can speed up content transfers to and from Amazon S3 by as much as 50-500% for long-distance transfer of larger objects, particularly useful for customers with widespread users or applications hosted far away from their S3 bucket.
- Improved throughput can be achieved by using multipart uploads to directly upload site data to the destination bucket.
- A company's application integrates with multiple SaaS sources for data collection, and the EC2 instance that receives and uploads the data also sends a notification to the user when an upload is complete.
- To improve application performance with the least operational overhead, the recommended solution is to create an Amazon EventBridge (Amazon CloudWatch Events) rule for each SaaS source to send output data, configure the S3 bucket as the rule's target, and create a second EventBridge (CloudWatch Events) rule to send events when the upload to the S3 bucket is complete, with an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic as the second rule's target.
- Another solution is to create an Auto Scaling group so that EC2 instances can scale out and configure an S3 event notification to send events to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic when the upload to the S3 bucket is complete.
- Docker container usage instead of an EC2 instance and hosting the containerized application on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) is also suggested as a solution to improve performance with minimal operational overhead.
- The solutions provided are aimed at addressing the specific requirements of the companies' operations and data management needs efficiently within the AWS environment.
