Amazon ElastiCache

___________________ allows you to seamlessly set up, run, and scale popular open-Source compatible in-memory data stores in the cloud. Build data-intensive apps or boost the performance of your existing databases by retrieving data from high throughput and low latency in-memory data stores. ________ is a popular choice for real-time use cases like Caching, Session Stores, Gaming, Geospatial Services, Real-Time Analytics, and Queuing.

Amazon ElastiCache

You can manage the coordination of a state machine in Step Functions using the ___________________. The ___________________ is a JSON-based, structured language used to define your state machine, a collection of states, that can do work (Task states), determine which states to transition to next (Choice states), stop execution with an error (Fail states), and so on.

Amazon States Language

__________________ provide two advanced options that you may want to configure when you use ALBs with AWS Lambda: support for multi-value headers and health check configurations. You can set up these options in Target Groups section on the Amazon EC2 console.

Application Load Balancers

__________________-- represents a mathematically related public key and private key pair for encryption and decryption.

Asymmetric key

A company has deployed a new serverless Single Page Application (SPA) on AWS. The application ran smoothly in the first few weeks until it got featured on a popular television show. As it gained popularity, the number of users getting a 503 error also increased. The developer found out that this is due to the throttling of the Lambda function. What can the developer do to troubleshoot this issue? (Select THREE.) A: Configure reserved concurrency B: Deploy the Lambda function in VPC C: Request a service quota increase D: Use a compiled language like GoLang to improve the function's performance E: Use exponential backoff in the application. F: Increase Lambda function timeout

Configure reserved concurrency - by default, there are 900 unreserved concurrencies shared across all functions in a region. To prevent other functions from consuming the available concurrent executions, reserve a portion of it to your Lambda function based on the demand of your current workload. Request a service quota increase - you can reach AWS support to request for a higher service quota for concurrent executions. Use exponential backoff in the application. - a technique that uses progressively longer waits between retries for consecutive error responses. This can be used to handle throttling issues by preventing collision between simultaneous requests. Use a dead-letter queue - If you're using Amazon S3 and Amazon Cloudwatch events, configure your function with a dead letter queue to catch any events that are discarded due to constant throttles. This can protect your data if you're seeing significant throttling.

___________ is used to provide a fully managed, in-memory caching solution. This option is not the right way to handle errors due to high request rates.

DAX or DynamoDB Accelerator

A transcoding media service is being developed on Amazon Cloud. Photos uploaded to Amazon S3 will trigger a Lambda function. The Lambda function will cause the Step Functions to coordinate a series of processes that will do the image analysis tasks. The input of each function should be preserved on the result to conform to the application's logic flow. What should the developer do? A: Declare a ResultPath field filter on the Amazon States Language specification. B: Declare an InputPath field filter on the Amazon States Language specification. C: Declare an OutputPath field filter on the Amazon States Language specification. D: Declare a Parameters field filter on the Amazon States Language specification.

Both the _______________ fields provide a way to manipulate JSON as it moves through your workflow

InputPath and Parameters

_______________ is the data about your instance that you can use to configure or manage the running instance. _______________ is divided into categories, for example, hostname, events, and security groups.

Instance metadata

A Step Functions execution receives a ________ text as input and passes that input to the first state in the workflow. Individual states receive JSON as input and usually pass JSON as output to the next state

JSON

______ is used to give flexibility to your queries against the DynamoDB table. _____ uses an alternative sort key aside from the original sort key defined at the creation of the table. Additionally, you cannot create an _____ on an existing table. It can only be added during the creation of a DynamoDB table.

LSI or Local Secondary Index

_______________ refers to the rejection of the Lambda function to invocation requests. At this event, the Lambda will return a throttling error exception which you need to handle. This happens because your current concurrency execution count is greater than your concurrency limit. ___________ is intended to protect your resources and downstream applications. Though Lambda automatically scales to accommodate your incoming traffic, your function can still be throttled for various reasons.

Lambda Throttling

_____________ enables you to select a portion of the state output to pass to the next state. This enables you to filter out unwanted information, and pass only the portion of JSON that you care about.

OutputPath

__________- enables you to pass a collection of key-value pairs, where the values are either static values that you define in your state machine definition, or that are selected from the input using a path.

Parameters field

___________________________________ means that your request rate is too high. The AWS SDKs for DynamoDB automatically retries requests that receive this exception. Your request is eventually successful unless your retry queue is too large to finish. To handle this error, you can reduce the frequency of requests using error retries and exponential backoff.

ProvisionedThroughputExceededException

__________ is the only service in Elasticache that supports replication.

Redis

A code that runs on a Lambda function performs a GetItem call from a DynamoDB table. The function runs three times every week. You noticed that the application kept receiving a ProvisionedThroughputExceededException error for 10 seconds most of the time. How should you handle this error? A: Enable DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) to reduce response times from milliseconds to microseconds. B: Refactor the code in the Lambda function to optimize its performance. C: Create a Local Secondary Index (LSI) to the existing DynamoDB table to increase the provisioned throughput. D: Reduce the frequency of requests using error retries and exponential backoff.

Reduce the frequency of requests using error retries and exponential backoff.

_________ to control which combination of these is passed to the state output. ___________ field filter is the only one that can control input values and its previous results to be passed to the state output

ResultPath

A lead developer is looking for a way to decrease data retrieval latency from a MySQL database. The database is hosted on Amazon RDS. He wants to leverage AWS to implement a caching solution that supports Multi-AZ replication with sub-millisecond response times. What must the developer do that requires the LEAST amount of effort? A: Set up AWS Global Accelerator and integrate it with your application to improve overall performance. B: Set up an Elasticache for Memcached cluster between the application and database. Configure it to run with replication to achieve high availability. C: Set up an Elasticache for Redis cluster between the application and database. Configure it to run with replication to achieve high availability. D: Convert the database schema using the AWS Schema Conversion Tool and move the data to DynamoDB. Enable Amazon DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX).

Set up an Elasticache for Redis cluster between the application and database. Configure it to run with replication to achieve high availability.

____________ is a technique in modeling systems whose output depends on the entire history of their inputs, not just on the most recent input. In this case, the Lambda functions invoke one another, creating a large state machine.

State Machine

______________ are used in symmetric encryption, where the same key is used for encryption and decryption.
