Take note that you can invoke a Lambda function synchronously either by calling the Invoke operation or by using an AWS SDK in your preferred runtime. If you anticipate a long-running Lambda function, your client may time out before function execution completes. To avoid this, update the ______________

client timeout or your SDK configuration.

With the the AWS CloudFormation python helper scripts it is only a wrapper script that retrieves either all metadata that is defined for a resource or path to a specific key or a subtree of the resource metadata, but does not interpret the resource metadata, install packages, create files, and start services.

cfn-get-metadata

AWS CloudFormation Python helper script cfn-get-metadata:

cfn-get-metadata: Use to retrieve metadata for a resource or path to a specific key.

With the the AWS CloudFormation python helper scripts This is a a daemon that checks for updates to metadata and executes custom hooks when changes are detected.

cfn-hup

AWS CloudFormation Python helper script cfn-hup:

cfn-hup: Use to check for updates to metadata and execute custom hooks when changes are detected.

With the the AWS CloudFormation python helper scripts This scripts interprets the metadata that contains the sources, packages, files, and services. You run the script on the EC2 instance when it is launched. The script is installed by default on Amazon Linux and Windows AMIs.

cfn-init

AWS CloudFormation Python helper script cfn-init:

cfn-init: Use to retrieve and interpret resource metadata, install packages, create files, and start services.

AWS CloudFormation provides the following Python helper scripts that you can use to install software and start services on an Amazon EC2 instance that you create as part of your stack:

cfn-init: Use to retrieve and interpret resource metadata, install packages, create files, and start services. cfn-signal: Use to signal with a CreationPolicy or WaitCondition, so you can synchronize other resources in the stack when the prerequisite resource or application is ready. cfn-get-metadata: Use to retrieve metadata for a resource or path to a specific key. cfn-hup: Use to check for updates to metadata and execute custom hooks when changes are detected.

With the the AWS CloudFormation python helper scripts This script is a wrapper thats signals an AWS CloudFormation WaitCondition for synchronizing other resources in the stack when the application is ready.

cfn-signal

A developer is managing an application hosted in EC2, which stores data in an S3 bucket. To comply with the new security policy, the developer must ensure that the data is encrypted at rest using an encryption key that is provided and managed by the company. The change should also provide AES-256 encryption to their data. Is the following correct? Using SSL to encrypt the data while in transit to Amazon S3

the requirement is to only secure the data at rest and not data in transit. Hence, you have to use server-side encryption instead.

With X-Ray The compute resources running your application logic send data about their work as segments. A segment provides ___________

the resource's name, details about the request, and details about the work done.

With the the AWS CloudFormation python helper scripts By default, ________ You must include calls in your template to _____________

AWS access key ID, a secret access key, and a session token.

This simple role helps provide Lambda permissions to upload logs to CloudWatch.

AWSLambdaBasicExecutionRole

With DynamoDB Streams, you can trigger a Lambda function to perform additional work each time a DynamoDB table is updated. The ___________________ managed policy already includes the write dynamoDB permissions for Lambda

AWSLambdaDynamoDBExecutionRole

With the X-ray daemon, To upload data to X-Ray, the X-Ray daemon requires IAM permissions in the __________________ managed policy. These permissions are included in the Elastic Beanstalk instance profile.

AWSXRayDaemonWriteAccess

With X-ray and an instrumented app, The read and write policies do not include permission to configure encryption key settings and sampling rules. Use ____________ to access these settings, or add configuration APIs in a custom policy. For encryption and decryption with a customer-managed key that you create, you also need ___________ to use the key.

AWSXrayFullAccess, permission

To use the X-Ray console to view service maps and segments, you only need read permissions. To enable console access, add the _________________ managed policy to your IAM user.

AWSXrayReadOnlyAccess

At the simplest level, AWS WAF lets you choose one of the following behaviors:

Allow all requests except the ones that you specify - This is useful when you want CloudFront or an Application Load Balancer to serve content for a public website, but you also want to block requests from attackers. Block all requests except the ones that you specify - This is useful when you want to serve content for a restricted website whose users are readily identifiable by properties in web requests, such as the IP addresses that they use to browse to the website. Count the requests that match the properties that you specify - When you want to allow or block requests based on new properties in web requests, you first can configure AWS WAF to count the requests that match those properties without allowing or blocking those requests. This lets you confirm that you didn't accidentally configure AWS WAF to block all the traffic to your website. When you're confident that you specified the correct properties, you can change the behavior to allow or block requests.

If you need server-side encryption for all of the objects that are stored in a bucket, use a bucket policy. The Effect element is required and specifies whether the statement results in an allow or an explicit deny. The valid values for the Effect element are __________

Allow and Deny.

although this service can also be used in synchronizing application data across devices, it does not allow multiple users to synchronize and collaborate in real time on shared data, unike AWS AppSync.

Amazon Cognito Sync

this is just a threat detection service that continuously monitors for malicious activity and unauthorized behavior to protect your AWS accounts and workloads.

Amazon Guard​Duty

This service allows you to engage with your customers across multiple messaging channels.

this option is primarily used if you want to integrate RDS with your AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory (also called AWS Managed Microsoft AD) to enable Windows Authentication to authenticate users.

Microsoft SQL Server Windows Authentication

Amazon RDS supports using Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) to encrypt stored data on your DB instances running ___________

Microsoft SQL Server.

this is an optional layer of security for your VPC that acts as a firewall for controlling traffic in and out of one or more subnets.

Network Access Control List

A developer is using AWS X-Ray to create a visualization scheme to monitor the requests that go through their enterprise web application. There are different services that communicate with the application and all these requests should be traced in X-Ray, including all the downstream calls made by the application to AWS resources. Is this correct? Pass multiple trace segments as a parameter of PutTraceSegments API

No contrary to the API's name, you have to upload segment documents and not trace segments. The API has a single parameter: TraceSegmentDocuments, that takes a list of JSON segment documents.

A developer is launching a Lambda function which requires access to a MySQL RDS instance that is in a private subnet. Which of the following is the MOST secure way to achieve this? Is this statement correct? Ensuring that the Lambda function has proper IAM permission to access RDS

No even though you grant the necessary IAM permissions to the Lambda function to access RDS, the function would still not be able to connect to RDS since there is no established connection between Lambda and to the private subnet of your VPC.

A developer is launching a Lambda function which requires access to a MySQL RDS instance that is in a private subnet. Which of the following is the MOST secure way to achieve this? Is this statement correct? Exposing an endpoint of your RDS to the Internet using an Elastic IP

No this is not the most secure way of granting access to your Lambda function. It will be able to connect to RDS but so will the billions of people on the public Internet.

A developer is using AWS X-Ray to create a visualization scheme to monitor the requests that go through their enterprise web application. There are different services that communicate with the application and all these requests should be traced in X-Ray, including all the downstream calls made by the application to AWS resources. Is this correct? Use AWS X-Ray SDK to upload a trace segment by executing PutTraceSegments API

No you cannot run a trace on the application and the services at the same time as this will produce two different results. You simply have to send the segment documents with subsegments to get the information about downstream calls that your application makes to AWS resources.

If you use this locking strategy, then your database writes are protected from being overwritten by the writes of others — and vice-versa.

Optimistic locking

With authenticating to utilize AWS services with IAM, If your identity store is not compatible with _________, then you can build a custom identity broker application to perform a similar function.

SAML 2.0

You can protect data in transit by using __________

SSL or by using client-side encryption.

Compared to Step Functions, this is just a fully-managed state tracker and task coordinator service. It does not provide serverless orchestration to multiple AWS resources.

SWF

this service just helps developers build, run, and scale background jobs that have parallel or sequential steps.

SWF

With SWF, This enables you to inject information into a running workflow execution.

SWF Signals

With SWF, This enables you to filter the listing of the executions when you use the visibility operation

SWF Tags

This lets you coordinate multiple AWS services into serverless workflows so you can build and update apps quickly.

Step Functions

With authenticating to utilize AWS services with IAM, A custom broker application does this

The broker application authenticates users, requests temporary credentials for users from AWS, and then provides them to the user to access AWS resources.

Using roles to grant permissions to applications that run on EC2 instances requires an additional step is needed to assign an AWS role and its associated permissions to an EC2 instance and make them available to its applications.

This extra step is the creation of an instance profile that is attached to the instance. The instance profile contains the role and can provide the role's temporary credentials to an application that runs on the instance.

You have the following options for protecting data at rest in Amazon S3:

Use Server-Side Encryption - You request Amazon S3 to encrypt your object before saving it on disks in its data centers and decrypt it when you download the objects. 1. Use Server-Side Encryption with Amazon S3-Managed Keys (SSE-S3) 2. Use Server-Side Encryption with AWS KMS-Managed Keys (SSE-KMS) 3. Use Server-Side Encryption with Customer-Provided Keys (SSE-C) Use Client-Side Encryption - You can encrypt data client-side and upload the encrypted data to Amazon S3. In this case, you manage the encryption process, the encryption keys, and related tools. 1. Use Client-Side Encryption with AWS KMS-Managed Customer Master Key (CMK) 2. Use Client-Side Encryption Using a Client-Side Master Key

to enable your Lambda function to access resources inside your private VPC, AWS Lambda uses ________ to set up elastic network interfaces (ENIs) that enable your function to connect securely to other resources within your private VPC.

VPC subnet IDs and security group IDs

to enable your Lambda function to access resources inside your private VPC, you must provide additional ____________ configuration information that includes ______________.

VPC-specific, VPC subnet IDs and security group IDs

This WAF feature is useful when you want CloudFront or an Application Load Balancer to serve content for a public website, but you also want to block requests from attackers.

Whitelisting requests Allow all requests except the ones that you specify

A developer is managing an application hosted in EC2, which stores data in an S3 bucket. To comply with the new security policy, the developer must ensure that the data is encrypted at rest using an encryption key that is provided and managed by the company. The change should also provide AES-256 encryption to their data. Is the following correct? Encrypt the data on the client-side before sending to Amazon S3 using their own master key.

Yes

A developer is managing an application hosted in EC2, which stores data in an S3 bucket. To comply with the new security policy, the developer must ensure that the data is encrypted at rest using an encryption key that is provided and managed by the company. The change should also provide AES-256 encryption to their data. Is the following correct? Implement Amazon S3 server-side encryption with customer-provided keys (SSE-C)

Yes

A developer is using AWS X-Ray to create a visualization scheme to monitor the requests that go through their enterprise web application. There are different services that communicate with the application and all these requests should be traced in X-Ray, including all the downstream calls made by the application to AWS resources. Is this correct? Use X-Ray SDK to generate segment documents with subsegments and sending them to the X-Ray daemon, which will buffer them and upload to the X-Ray API in batches

Yes

Your request to increase your account's concurrent execution limit to 2000 has been recently approved by AWS. There are 10 Lambda functions running in your account and you already specified a concurrency execution limit on one function at 400 and on another function at 200. Is this statement correct? The remaining 1400 concurrent executions will be shared among the other 8 functions.

Yes

Your request to increase your account's concurrent execution limit to 2000 has been recently approved by AWS. There are 10 Lambda functions running in your account and you already specified a concurrency execution limit on one function at 400 and on another function at 200. Is this statement correct? You can still set a concurrency execution limit of 1300 to a third Lambda function.

Yes

You were recently hired by a media company that is planning to build a news portal using Elastic Beanstalk and DynamoDB database, which already contains a few data. There is already an existing DynamoDB Table that has an attribute of ArticleName which acts as the partition key and a Category attribute as its sort key. You are instructed to develop a feature that will query the ArticleName attribute but will use a different sort key other than the existing one. The feature also requires strong read consistency to fetch the most up-to-date data. Is the following correct? create a new DynamoDB table with a Local Secondary Index that uses the ArticleName attribute with a different sort key then migrate the data from the existing table to the new table.

Yes If you need the same primary key, different sort key, and the table has already been created You just can create a new DynamoDB table

You currently have an IAM user for working in the development environment using shell scripts that call the AWS CLI. The EC2 instance that you are using already contains the access key credential set and an IAM role, which are used to run the CLI and access the development environment. You were given a new set of access key credentials with another IAM role that allows you to access and manage the production environment. Is the following correct? create a new profile for the role in the AWS CLI configuration file then append the --profile parameter, along with the new profile name, whenever you run the CLI command.

Yes Note that when you specify that profile in an AWS CLI command, you are using the new role. In this situation, you cannot make use of your original permissions in the development account at the same time. The reason is that only one set of permissions can be in effect at a time.

Your application is hosted on an Auto Scaling group of EC2 instances with a DynamoDB database. There were a lot of data discrepancy issues where the changes made by one user were always overwritten by another user. You noticed that this usually happens whenever there are a lot of people updating the same data. Is the following correct? implementing an optimistic locking strategy in your application source code by designating one property to store the version number in the mapping class for your table

Yes With optimistic locking, each item has an attribute that acts as a version number.

A developer is launching a Lambda function which requires access to a MySQL RDS instance that is in a private subnet. Which of the following is the MOST secure way to achieve this? Is this statement correct? configure the Lambda function to connect to your VPC

Yes Services like Amazon Elasticsearch Service can be secured over IAM with access policies, so exposing the endpoint publicly is safe and wouldn't require you to run your function in the VPC to secure it.

The AWS X-Ray SDK does not send trace data directly to AWS X-Ray. To avoid calling the service every time your application serves a request, the SDK sends the trace data to ________

a daemon, which collects segments for multiple requests and uploads them in batches.

AWS AppSync simplifies application development by letting you create _____________

a flexible API to securely access, manipulate, and combine data from one or more data sources.

With RDS Transparent data encryption for SQL Server provides encryption key management by using ____________

a two-tier key architecture.

For using X-Ray with local development and testing, Generate _____________ for the user and store them in the standard AWS SDK location. You can use these _____________ with the X-Ray daemon, the AWS CLI, and the AWS SDK.

access keys

Your application is hosted on an Auto Scaling group of EC2 instances with a DynamoDB database. There were a lot of data discrepancy issues where the changes made by one user were always overwritten by another user. You noticed that this usually happens whenever there are a lot of people updating the same data. Is the following correct? Using DynamoDB global tables and implementing an optimistic locking strategy

although it is correct to use the optimistic locking strategy, the use of DynamoDB global tables is wrong. This uses a "last writer wins" reconciliation between concurrent updates. If you use Global Tables, the last writer policy is in effect so in this case, the locking strategy will not work as expected.

With CloudWatch, For the instances where you've enabled detailed monitoring, you can also get __________

aggregated data across groups of similar instances.

A developer is managing an application hosted in EC2, which stores data in an S3 bucket. To comply with the new security policy, the developer must ensure that the data is encrypted at rest using an encryption key that is provided and managed by the company. The change should also provide AES-256 encryption to their data. Is the following correct? Implementing Amazon S3 server-side encryption with AWS KMS-Managed Keys (SSE-KMS)

although you can upload the company's customer master keys (CMKs), the keys will be managed by KMS and not your company. This does not comply with the security policy mandated by the company.

instead of sending segment documents to the X-Ray API, you can send segments and subsegments to _____________

an X-Ray daemon, which will buffer them and upload to the X-Ray API in batches.

With ECS spread strategy, Place tasks evenly based on the specified value. Accepted values are ___________

attribute key-value pairs, instanceId, or host.

console, or consume the Enhanced Monitoring JSON output from CloudWatch Logs in a monitoring system of your choice.

With TDE, Amazon RDS backs up and manages the ______________ and the __________. To comply with several security standards, Amazon RDS is working to implement automatic periodic master key rotation.

database master key, TDE certificate

With RDS TDE, A certificate, which is generated from the _____________, is used to protect the data encryption keys. The ____________ performs the actual encryption and decryption of data on the user database.

database master key, database encryption key

With SWF, Markers are useful when you want to record custom information to help implement ____________. For example, you could use a marker to count the number of loops in a recursive workflow.

decider logic

Amazon RDS's RDS Encryption encrypts your Amazon RDS DB instances and snapshots at rest. It __________ encrypt data before it is written to storage, nor automatically decrypt data when _____________

doesn't automatically , it is read from storage.

With DynamoDB Streams, you can trigger a Lambda function to perform additional work each time a DynamoDB table is updated. You also need to assign the following permissions to Lambda:

dynamodb:DescribeStream dynamodb:ListStreams dynamodb:GetRecords dynamodb:GetShardIterator

With authenticating to utilize AWS services with IAM, An custom identity broker application obtains temporary security credentials for the employees. To get temporary security credentials, the identity broker application calls _______________ to obtain temporary security credentials, depending on how you want to manage the policies for users and when the temporary credentials should expire.

either AssumeRole or GetFederationToken

Amazon RDS TDE automatically ________________ to storage, and automatically ____________ from storage.

encrypts data before it is written, decrypts data when the data is read

With DynamoDB Streams, you can trigger a Lambda function to perform additional work each time a DynamoDB table is updated. You need to create an _________________________ to tell Lambda to send records from your stream to a Lambda function. You can create multiple ______________ to process the same data with multiple Lambda functions, or process items from multiple streams with a single function.

You can configure an approval action to publish a message to an Amazon Simple Notification Service topic when the pipeline stops at the action. When you create a topic, it is recommended that you give it a name that will ______________, in formats such as tutorialsdojoManualApprovalPHL-us-east-2-approval.

identify its purpose

You currently have an IAM user for working in the development environment using shell scripts that call the AWS CLI. The EC2 instance that you are using already contains the access key credential set and an IAM role, which are used to run the CLI and access the development environment. You were given a new set of access key credentials with another IAM role that allows you to access and manage the production environment. Is the following correct? Creating a new instance profile in the AWS CLI configuration file then appending the --profile parameter along with the new profile name whenever you run the CLI command

incorrect because an instance profile is just a container for an IAM role that you can use to pass role information to an EC2 instance when the instance starts. This is different from an AWS CLI profile, which you can use for switching to various profiles. In addition, an instance profile is associated with the instance and not configured in the AWS CLI.

You were recently hired by a media company that is planning to build a news portal using Elastic Beanstalk and DynamoDB database, which already contains a few data. There is already an existing DynamoDB Table that has an attribute of ArticleName which acts as the partition key and a Category attribute as its sort key. You are instructed to develop a feature that will query the ArticleName attribute but will use a different sort key other than the existing one. The feature also requires strong read consistency to fetch the most up-to-date data. Is the following correct? Creating a Global Secondary Index that uses the ArticleName attribute and a different sort key

incorrect because it is stated in the scenario that you are still using the same partition key, but with an alternate sort key that warrants the use of a local secondary index instead of a global secondary index.

Your request to increase your account's concurrent execution limit to 2000 has been recently approved by AWS. There are 10 Lambda functions running in your account and you already specified a concurrency execution limit on one function at 400 and on another function at 200. Is this statement correct? the combined allocated 600 concurrent execution will be shared among the 2 functions

incorrect because the execution limit is per function only and will not be shared with other functions, which also have reserved concurrent executions.

same AWS region as the pipeline that will include the approval action.

With X-ray You can _________________ by using the PutTraceSegments API.

send segment documents directly to X-Ray

If you set the concurrent execution limit for a function, the value is deducted from the unreserved concurrency pool. For example, if your account's concurrent execution limit is 1000 and you have 10 functions, you can specify a limit on one function at 200 and another function at 100. The remaining 700 will be __________

shared among the other 8 functions.

X-ray Annotations are ___________

simple key-value pairs that are indexed for use with filter expressions

Take note that there are certain differences between CloudWatch and Enhanced Monitoring Metrics. As a result, you might find differences between the measurements, because the hypervisor layer performs a small amount of work. The differences can be greater if your DB instances use ____________ because then _________________

smaller instance classes , there are likely more virtual machines (VMs) that are managed by the hypervisor layer on a single physical instance.

With optimistic locking, each item has an attribute that acts as a version number. If there is a version mismatch, it means that ___________________; the update attempt fails, because you have a ____________ version of the item.

someone else has modified the item before you did, stale

With task placement By default, ECS uses _____________

spread with the ecs.availability-zone attribute to place tasks.

The AWS CloudFormation python helper scripts run on the Amazon EC2 instance during the _______________

stack creation process.

subset of data that you need.

With X-Ray A _________________ are indexed by X-Ray for use with filter expressions.

subset of segment fields

A developer is managing an application hosted in EC2, which stores data in an S3 bucket. To comply with the new security policy, the developer must ensure that the data is encrypted at rest using an encryption key that is provided and managed by the company. The change should also provide AES-256 encryption to their data. Is the following correct? Implementing Amazon S3 server-side encryption with Amazon S3-Managed Encryption Keys

the Amazon S3-Managed encryption does not comply with the policy mentioned in the given scenario since the keys are managed by AWS (through Amazon S3) and not by the company. The suitable server-side encryption that you should use here is SSE-C.

On supported platforms, you can use a configuration option to run the X-Ray daemon on the instances in your environment. You can enable the daemon in _______________ or by ______________.

the Elastic Beanstalk console, using a configuration file
