Question 1141

An AWS implementation has already addressed run interruptible compute at potentially deep discounts by using EC2 Spot Instances. Its remaining gap is to prioritize stronger discounts for relatively stable EC2 requirements. Which listed capability closes this gap?

  1. EC2 Reserved Instances
  2. Standard Reserved Instances
  3. EC2 Spot Instances
  4. EC2 Instance Savings Plans

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Standard Reserved Instances addresses the new need to prioritize stronger discounts for relatively stable EC2 requirements because standard RIs offer commitment-based EC2 savings with restricted modification flexibility; EC2 Spot Instances supports the different existing task to run interruptible compute at potentially deep discounts.

Incorrect Answers

A:

EC2 Reserved Instances is intended to discount predictable eligible EC2 instance usage under a commitment because reserved Instance benefits are linked to defined term and instance attributes; in this design the new outcome is to prioritize stronger discounts for relatively stable EC2 requirements, which calls for Standard Reserved Instances rather than EC2 Reserved Instances or the earlier EC2 Spot Instances.

C:

EC2 Spot Instances primarily supports the earlier need to run interruptible compute at potentially deep discounts because Spot Instances use spare EC2 capacity and can be interrupted when AWS needs it, but the new task is to prioritize stronger discounts for relatively stable EC2 requirements; that is why Standard Reserved Instances is preferable here.

D:

EC2 Instance Savings Plans is intended to obtain discounted EC2 compute use in a selected instance family and Region because EC2 Instance Savings Plans apply commitments with more specific EC2 attributes; in this design the new outcome is to prioritize stronger discounts for relatively stable EC2 requirements, which calls for Standard Reserved Instances rather than EC2 Instance Savings Plans or the earlier EC2 Spot Instances.

Question 1144

While reviewing a design, an architect identifies a gap: the workload needs to distinguish inbound network traffic charges from other data movement. Which option closes that gap most directly?

  1. Compute Savings Plans
  2. Data transfer into AWS
  3. EC2 compute versus EBS charges
  4. EC2 Dedicated Hosts

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Data transfer into AWS matches the goal to distinguish inbound network traffic charges from other data movement because data transfer into AWS from the internet is generally free for many standard services. Inter-Region and internet-outbound traffic follow different pricing rules. Compute Savings Plans is for the different objective to discount qualifying compute usage across supported service and instance choices.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Compute Savings Plans addresses the separate need to discount qualifying compute usage across supported service and instance choices because compute Savings Plans apply a commitment to eligible EC2 Fargate and Lambda spend; it is not as direct as Data transfer into AWS for the actual requirement to distinguish inbound network traffic charges from other data movement.

C:

EC2 compute versus EBS charges addresses the separate need to account for storage bills separately from instance runtime because EBS capacity and eligible provisioned performance can accrue charges independent of EC2 running state; it is not as direct as Data transfer into AWS for the actual requirement to distinguish inbound network traffic charges from other data movement.

D:

EC2 Dedicated Hosts addresses the separate need to meet physical-host visibility and software licensing constraints because dedicated Hosts allocate physical EC2 host capacity to a single customer; it is not as direct as Data transfer into AWS for the actual requirement to distinguish inbound network traffic charges from other data movement.

Question 1148

Which AWS service or cloud concept is designed principally to run flexible compute without a long-term usage commitment?

  1. EC2 compute versus EBS charges
  2. Cross-Region data transfer
  3. EC2 On-Demand Instances
  4. EC2 Dedicated Instances

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

EC2 On-Demand Instances matches the goal to run flexible compute without a long-term usage commitment because on-Demand pricing charges eligible compute capacity as it is used without a term commitment. Its per-unit cost is often higher than qualifying commitment-based discounts. EC2 Dedicated Instances is for the different objective to run instances on hardware dedicated to one AWS customer.

Incorrect Answers

A:

EC2 compute versus EBS charges addresses the separate need to account for storage bills separately from instance runtime because EBS capacity and eligible provisioned performance can accrue charges independent of EC2 running state; it is not as direct as EC2 On-Demand Instances for the actual requirement to run flexible compute without a long-term usage commitment.

B:

Cross-Region data transfer addresses the separate need to account for charges when moving data between AWS Regions because data transferred between Regions can incur regional transfer charges; it is not as direct as EC2 On-Demand Instances for the actual requirement to run flexible compute without a long-term usage commitment.

D:

EC2 Dedicated Instances addresses the separate need to run instances on hardware dedicated to one AWS customer because dedicated Instances provide single-customer tenancy on EC2 infrastructure; it is not as direct as EC2 On-Demand Instances for the actual requirement to run flexible compute without a long-term usage commitment.

Question 1149

An AWS implementation has already addressed separate actual internal billing from reporting departmental consumption by using Chargeback versus showback. Its remaining gap is to store billing detail for downstream analysis. Which listed capability closes this gap?

  1. AWS Marketplace subscription charges
  2. Cost and Usage Report to S3
  3. Tag activation for billing
  4. Chargeback versus showback

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Cost and Usage Report to S3 addresses the new need to store billing detail for downstream analysis because AWS can deliver granular CUR files to an S3 bucket for querying or reporting; Chargeback versus showback supports the different existing task to separate actual internal billing from reporting departmental consumption.

Incorrect Answers

A:

AWS Marketplace subscription charges is intended to recognize third-party license and service costs on AWS billing because eligible Marketplace subscriptions may appear alongside infrastructure charges; in this design the new outcome is to store billing detail for downstream analysis, which calls for Cost and Usage Report to S3 rather than AWS Marketplace subscription charges or the earlier Chargeback versus showback.

C:

Tag activation for billing is intended to make eligible resource tags visible to detailed billing reports because cost allocation tags require activation in billing before they can be used in many cost views; in this design the new outcome is to store billing detail for downstream analysis, which calls for Cost and Usage Report to S3 rather than Tag activation for billing or the earlier Chargeback versus showback.

D:

Chargeback versus showback primarily supports the earlier need to separate actual internal billing from reporting departmental consumption because chargeback allocates expenses to owners while showback makes attributed usage visible, but the new task is to store billing detail for downstream analysis; that is why Cost and Usage Report to S3 is preferable here.
