Study Notes
AWS EC2, S3, and Data Management Solutions
- Reserve instances require payment for the entire term, which may not be cost-effective
- A company needs to ingest and store 1 TB of status alerts daily, with each alert being approximately 2 KB in size
- The company wants a highly available and cost-effective solution, with 14 days of data available for immediate analysis and archiving of older data
- The most operationally efficient solution is to create a Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream to ingest alerts, deliver them to an S3 bucket, and set up an S3 Lifecycle configuration to transition data to Amazon S3 Glacier after 14 days
- The company collects weather data across multiple continents, with an average volume of 500 GB per site daily
- The fastest way to aggregate data is to enable Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration on the destination bucket and use multipart uploads to directly upload site data
- Transfer Acceleration can speed up content transfers to and from Amazon S3 by 50-500% for long-distance transfer of larger objects
- A company's application integrates with multiple SaaS sources for data collection, and it runs Amazon EC2 instances to receive and upload the data to an Amazon S3 bucket
- To improve performance with the least operational overhead, the solution is to create an Auto Scaling group for EC2 instances to scale out and configure an S3 event notification to send events to an Amazon SNS topic when the upload to the S3 bucket is complete
- An alternative solution for improving performance is to use Amazon AppFlow to transfer data between SaaS sources and the S3 bucket, and configure an S3 event notification to send events to an Amazon SNS topic when the upload is complete
- Another solution is to create an Amazon EventBridge rule for each SaaS source to send output data to the S3 bucket and to send events when the upload is complete, using Amazon SNS for notification
- One last alternative is to create a Docker container to use instead of an EC2 instance
AWS Solutions Architect Practice Questions
- A company has thousands of edge devices generating 1 TB of alerts daily, each alert being 2 KB in size
- Company needs a highly available, cost-effective solution to ingest and store alerts for future analysis
- Solution should minimize costs, not require managing additional infrastructure, and keep 14 days of data available for immediate analysis
- Options for solution include using Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, Amazon EC2 instances, Amazon Elasticsearch Service, or Amazon Simple Queue Service
- A company collects temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure data across multiple continents, with 500 GB data per site
- The company's weather forecasting applications are based in a single Region and analyze the data daily
- The fastest way to aggregate data from global sites involves enabling Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration on the destination bucket and using multipart uploads
- Another option is to upload site data to an Amazon S3 bucket in the closest AWS Region and use S3 cross-Region replication
- An alternative involves scheduling AWS Snowball jobs daily to transfer data to the closest AWS Region and using S3 cross-Region replication
- A company runs Amazon EC2 instances to receive and upload data to an Amazon S3 bucket for analysis, with the same instance sending a notification to the user when upload is complete
- The company wants to improve performance with the least operational overhead, and options include creating an Auto Scaling group, using Amazon AppFlow, Amazon EventBridge, or creating a Docker container
- Each solution has specific configuration and integration details, such as setting up S3 Lifecycle configuration, creating Amazon SNS topics, or configuring S3 event notifications
AWS Security and Access Control Best Practices
- Solution A involves adding the aws:PrincipalOrgID global condition key to the S3 bucket policy, referencing the organization ID, to minimize operational overhead.
- Solution B recommends creating an organizational unit (OU) for each department and adding the aws:PrincipalOrgPaths global condition key to the S3 bucket policy.
- Solution C suggests using AWS CloudTrail to monitor specific events and updating the S3 bucket policy accordingly.
- Solution D proposes tagging each user needing access to the S3 bucket and adding the aws:PrincipalTag global condition key to the S3 bucket policy.
- To ensure that Amazon S3 buckets do not have unauthorized configuration changes, a solutions architect should turn on AWS Config with the appropriate rules.
- To provide secure access to an Amazon S3 bucket from the application tier running on Amazon EC2 instances inside a VPC, a solutions architect should configure a VPC gateway endpoint for Amazon S3 within the VPC and create a bucket policy that limits access to only the application tier running in the VPC.
- A product manager can access an Amazon CloudWatch dashboard by creating an IAM user specifically for the product manager and attaching the CloudWatch Read Only Access managed policy to the user.
- To guarantee Amazon EC2 capacity in three specific Availability Zones in a specific AWS Region for an upcoming event, a company should create an On-Demand Capacity Reservation that specifies the Region and three Availability Zones needed.
