Question 940
During the storage design, the requirement is to store recreatable infrequently accessed objects within one Availability Zone. Which option best addresses that exact requirement?
- AWS Storage Gateway
- Amazon S3 One Zone-IA
- Amazon S3 Object Lock
- S3 server-side encryption
Explanation
Correct Answer
B:Amazon S3 One Zone-IA matches the goal to store recreatable infrequently accessed objects within one Availability Zone because one Zone-IA has a single-AZ resilience profile and lower storage cost. It is not appropriate when the only copy must withstand AZ loss. AWS Storage Gateway is for the different objective to connect on-premises applications to cloud-backed storage interfaces.
Incorrect Answers
A:AWS Storage Gateway addresses the separate need to connect on-premises applications to cloud-backed storage interfaces because storage Gateway supports hybrid file volume and tape integration scenarios; it is not as direct as Amazon S3 One Zone-IA for the actual requirement to store recreatable infrequently accessed objects within one Availability Zone.
C:Amazon S3 Object Lock addresses the separate need to enforce supported WORM retention against object deletion or modification because object Lock supports retention modes and legal holds on eligible S3 object versions; it is not as direct as Amazon S3 One Zone-IA for the actual requirement to store recreatable infrequently accessed objects within one Availability Zone.
D:S3 server-side encryption addresses the separate need to encrypt S3 object data at rest using supported key arrangements because S3 encrypts stored object data at rest and supports key-management choices; it is not as direct as Amazon S3 One Zone-IA for the actual requirement to store recreatable infrequently accessed objects within one Availability Zone.
Question 941
An AWS implementation has already addressed create a logically isolated IP network for AWS resources by using Amazon VPC. Its remaining gap is to enforce stateful inbound and outbound rules on supported resources. Which listed capability closes this gap?
- Internet gateway
- Amazon VPC
- Security group
- Public subnet
Explanation
Correct Answer
C:Security group addresses the new need to enforce stateful inbound and outbound rules on supported resources because security groups act as virtual firewalls associated with network interfaces; Amazon VPC supports the different existing task to create a logically isolated IP network for AWS resources.
Incorrect Answers
A:Internet gateway is intended to enable internet routing for resources in a VPC with suitable configuration because an internet gateway connects a VPC to the internet for eligible public addressing paths; in this design the new outcome is to enforce stateful inbound and outbound rules on supported resources, which calls for Security group rather than Internet gateway or the earlier Amazon VPC.
B:Amazon VPC primarily supports the earlier need to create a logically isolated IP network for AWS resources because a VPC defines virtual networking boundaries and hosts configurable subnets and routing, but the new task is to enforce stateful inbound and outbound rules on supported resources; that is why Security group is preferable here.
D:Public subnet is intended to place resources in a subnet with a route toward an internet gateway because a public subnet has a route to an attached internet gateway where applicable; in this design the new outcome is to enforce stateful inbound and outbound rules on supported resources, which calls for Security group rather than Public subnet or the earlier Amazon VPC.
Question 942
In a design comparison, Text sentiment classification is associated with the objective to identify positive negative or neutral tone in a document. For the distinct objective to extract printed and handwritten text and document structure, which option should be preferred?
- Text sentiment classification
- Amazon Textract
- Amazon Transcribe
- Amazon Translate
Explanation
Correct Answer
B:Amazon Textract addresses the new need to extract printed and handwritten text and document structure because textract reads forms tables and text from supported document inputs; Text sentiment classification supports the different existing task to identify positive negative or neutral tone in a document.
Incorrect Answers
A:Text sentiment classification primarily supports the earlier need to identify positive negative or neutral tone in a document because managed NLP sentiment analysis assesses the emotional polarity of text, but the new task is to extract printed and handwritten text and document structure; that is why Amazon Textract is preferable here.
C:Amazon Transcribe is intended to convert spoken audio into a text transcript because transcribe provides managed automatic speech recognition; in this design the new outcome is to extract printed and handwritten text and document structure, which calls for Amazon Textract rather than Amazon Transcribe or the earlier Text sentiment classification.
D:Amazon Translate is intended to translate text between supported human languages because translate is a machine-translation service used by multilingual applications; in this design the new outcome is to extract printed and handwritten text and document structure, which calls for Amazon Textract rather than Amazon Translate or the earlier Text sentiment classification.
Question 943
A project has chosen Amazon CloudFront to cache web content at distributed edge locations near viewers. Which qualification is most specifically associated with that decision?
- Caching improves delivery but does not automatically replicate an origin database.
- The source application still needs an appropriate origin and cache policy.
- An origin can still be a single point of failure unless designed for resilience.
- An edge site is not a full substitute for application compute in an AWS Region.
Explanation
Correct Answer
A:Caching improves delivery but does not automatically replicate an origin database; this qualification applies directly to Amazon CloudFront when the intended outcome is to cache web content at distributed edge locations near viewers, rather than to another capability.
Incorrect Answers
B:The source application still needs an appropriate origin and cache policy; that caveat is associated more closely with Content delivery latency for the need to reduce time to download reusable web assets in different countries than with Amazon CloudFront for the requirement to cache web content at distributed edge locations near viewers.
C:An origin can still be a single point of failure unless designed for resilience; that caveat is associated more closely with CloudFront origin for the need to provide the source from which edge caches fetch content on a miss than with Amazon CloudFront for the requirement to cache web content at distributed edge locations near viewers.
D:An edge site is not a full substitute for application compute in an AWS Region; that caveat is associated more closely with Edge location for the need to deliver cached content closer to geographically dispersed end users than with Amazon CloudFront for the requirement to cache web content at distributed edge locations near viewers.
Question 944
A team already uses Amazon EC2 to operate virtual servers with explicit OS and instance management. It now must launch simple virtual servers with bundled management and predictable plans, which is a separate requirement. What should it select for that new objective?
- Amazon Lightsail
- Gateway Load Balancer
- EC2 user data
- Amazon EC2
Explanation
Correct Answer
A:Amazon Lightsail addresses the new need to launch simple virtual servers with bundled management and predictable plans because lightsail packages compute networking and storage for straightforward applications; Amazon EC2 supports the different existing task to operate virtual servers with explicit OS and instance management.
Incorrect Answers
B:Gateway Load Balancer is intended to insert compatible virtual network appliances into traffic paths because gateway Load Balancer distributes flows across appliance targets for inspection or similar tasks; in this design the new outcome is to launch simple virtual servers with bundled management and predictable plans, which calls for Amazon Lightsail rather than Gateway Load Balancer or the earlier Amazon EC2.
C:EC2 user data is intended to perform initial bootstrap actions during instance launch because user data can provide launch-time configuration and installation scripts; in this design the new outcome is to launch simple virtual servers with bundled management and predictable plans, which calls for Amazon Lightsail rather than EC2 user data or the earlier Amazon EC2.
D:Amazon EC2 primarily supports the earlier need to operate virtual servers with explicit OS and instance management because EC2 provides configurable compute instances where customers manage guest OS and application software, but the new task is to launch simple virtual servers with bundled management and predictable plans; that is why Amazon Lightsail is preferable here.
Question 945
A team has chosen DynamoDB point-in-time recovery to restore supported table data to a recent earlier point. Which description explains the mechanism that makes this selection appropriate?
- This capability offers managed in-memory caching engines to reduce repetitive backend reads.
- AWS DMS can perform initial loading and change data capture for supported databases.
- This capability provides a cloud data warehouse optimized for analytical SQL workloads.
- PITR continuously backs up eligible DynamoDB table data for point-in-time restore within its retention window.
Explanation
Correct Answer
D:DynamoDB point-in-time recovery meets the goal to restore supported table data to a recent earlier point because pITR continuously backs up eligible DynamoDB table data for point-in-time restore within its retention window. Recovering an earlier state is not the same as real-time alerting on threats.
Incorrect Answers
A:That description belongs to Amazon ElastiCache because elastiCache offers managed in-memory caching engines to reduce repetitive backend reads; it is used to cache frequently accessed application data in memory, not to explain how DynamoDB point-in-time recovery provides the function to restore supported table data to a recent earlier point.
B:That description belongs to AWS Database Migration Service because AWS DMS can perform initial loading and change data capture for supported databases; it is used to move ongoing database data between supported source and destination engines, not to explain how DynamoDB point-in-time recovery provides the function to restore supported table data to a recent earlier point.
C:That description belongs to Amazon Redshift because redshift provides a cloud data warehouse optimized for analytical SQL workloads; it is used to analyze large structured data sets in a columnar warehouse, not to explain how DynamoDB point-in-time recovery provides the function to restore supported table data to a recent earlier point.
Question 946
A decision meeting distinguishes between two outcomes: observe metrics logs alarms and events for running resources, and distinguish event streams from independently consumed queued tasks. The first is handled using Amazon CloudWatch. Which option directly supports the second?
- Amazon EventBridge
- Amazon CloudWatch
- Amazon Kinesis versus SQS
- Amazon SQS
Explanation
Correct Answer
C:Amazon Kinesis versus SQS addresses the new need to distinguish event streams from independently consumed queued tasks because kinesis is oriented toward ordered streaming data while SQS supports decoupled message processing; Amazon CloudWatch supports the different existing task to observe metrics logs alarms and events for running resources.
Incorrect Answers
A:Amazon EventBridge is intended to route events from producers to targets using event patterns because eventBridge provides event buses and rule-based matching for supported events; in this design the new outcome is to distinguish event streams from independently consumed queued tasks, which calls for Amazon Kinesis versus SQS rather than Amazon EventBridge or the earlier Amazon CloudWatch.
B:Amazon CloudWatch primarily supports the earlier need to observe metrics logs alarms and events for running resources because cloudWatch helps monitor AWS workloads and alert on selected conditions, but the new task is to distinguish event streams from independently consumed queued tasks; that is why Amazon Kinesis versus SQS is preferable here.
D:Amazon SQS is intended to decouple systems with durable asynchronous message queues because sQS holds messages for consumers to process independently; in this design the new outcome is to distinguish event streams from independently consumed queued tasks, which calls for Amazon Kinesis versus SQS rather than Amazon SQS or the earlier Amazon CloudWatch.

- Amazon OpenSearch Service
- Amazon Comprehend
- Amazon Rekognition
- Amazon SageMaker AI
Explanation
Correct Answer
C:Amazon Rekognition addresses the new need to analyze image or video content for objects and visual attributes because rekognition offers managed computer-vision detection and analysis APIs; Amazon OpenSearch Service supports the different existing task to search and analyze indexed logs and document collections.
Incorrect Answers
A:Amazon OpenSearch Service primarily supports the earlier need to search and analyze indexed logs and document collections because openSearch Service supports search analytics and log exploration, but the new task is to analyze image or video content for objects and visual attributes; that is why Amazon Rekognition is preferable here.
B:Amazon Comprehend is intended to extract sentiment entities and other insights from text because comprehend provides managed natural-language processing APIs; in this design the new outcome is to analyze image or video content for objects and visual attributes, which calls for Amazon Rekognition rather than Amazon Comprehend or the earlier Amazon OpenSearch Service.
D:Amazon SageMaker AI is intended to build train and deploy custom machine learning models because sageMaker AI offers managed tooling for ML data preparation training and inference workflows; in this design the new outcome is to analyze image or video content for objects and visual attributes, which calls for Amazon Rekognition rather than Amazon SageMaker AI or the earlier Amazon OpenSearch Service.
Question 948
A reviewer suggests EBS volume encryption when asked how to recognize block devices compared with managed network file systems, although that offering is primarily used to protect block storage with supported at-rest encryption. Which alternative is the more precise choice?
- EBS snapshot
- EBS volume encryption
- EBS versus EFS storage model
- Amazon EBS
Explanation
Correct Answer
C:EBS versus EFS storage model addresses the new need to recognize block devices compared with managed network file systems because EBS offers block storage attached to instances; EFS offers a shared file system mounted over NFS; EBS volume encryption supports the different existing task to protect block storage with supported at-rest encryption.
Incorrect Answers
A:EBS snapshot is intended to back up an EBS volume to durable AWS-managed snapshot storage because EBS snapshots capture volume data and can support recovery or creating new volumes; in this design the new outcome is to recognize block devices compared with managed network file systems, which calls for EBS versus EFS storage model rather than EBS snapshot or the earlier EBS volume encryption.
B:EBS volume encryption primarily supports the earlier need to protect block storage with supported at-rest encryption because encrypted EBS volumes use integrated key management for data at rest, but the new task is to recognize block devices compared with managed network file systems; that is why EBS versus EFS storage model is preferable here.
D:Amazon EBS is intended to attach persistent block-level storage to supported EC2 instances because EBS volumes provide durable block storage within an Availability Zone with supported snapshot options; in this design the new outcome is to recognize block devices compared with managed network file systems, which calls for EBS versus EFS storage model rather than Amazon EBS or the earlier EBS volume encryption.
Question 949
A cloud design relies on Amazon VPC to create a logically isolated IP network for AWS resources. What capability or process actually provides that outcome?
- This capability record accepted or rejected network-flow metadata in supported destinations.
- A VPC defines virtual networking boundaries and hosts configurable subnets and routing.
- A public subnet has a route to an attached internet gateway where applicable.
- This capability provides a dedicated network connection through supported locations.
Explanation
Correct Answer
B:Amazon VPC meets the goal to create a logically isolated IP network for AWS resources because a VPC defines virtual networking boundaries and hosts configurable subnets and routing. Creating a VPC does not automatically make every resource internet-accessible.
Incorrect Answers
A:That description belongs to VPC Flow Logs because VPC Flow Logs record accepted or rejected network-flow metadata in supported destinations; it is used to capture metadata about traffic to and from network interfaces, not to explain how Amazon VPC provides the function to create a logically isolated IP network for AWS resources.
C:That description belongs to Public subnet because a public subnet has a route to an attached internet gateway where applicable; it is used to place resources in a subnet with a route toward an internet gateway, not to explain how Amazon VPC provides the function to create a logically isolated IP network for AWS resources.
D:That description belongs to AWS Direct Connect because direct Connect provides a dedicated network connection through supported locations; it is used to establish dedicated private network connectivity from a site to AWS, not to explain how Amazon VPC provides the function to create a logically isolated IP network for AWS resources.
Question 950
In a design comparison, Global IAM identity scope is associated with the objective to manage IAM identities used to authorize actions across AWS Regions. For the distinct objective to route user traffic toward healthy regional endpoints through AWS global network paths, which option should be preferred?
- Global IAM identity scope
- Availability Zone
- AWS Region
- AWS Global Accelerator
Explanation
Correct Answer
D:AWS Global Accelerator addresses the new need to route user traffic toward healthy regional endpoints through AWS global network paths because global Accelerator uses static anycast IP addresses and endpoint health information to improve availability and performance; Global IAM identity scope supports the different existing task to manage IAM identities used to authorize actions across AWS Regions.
Incorrect Answers
A:Global IAM identity scope primarily supports the earlier need to manage IAM identities used to authorize actions across AWS Regions because IAM is a global AWS service within an account, while service resources may be regional, but the new task is to route user traffic toward healthy regional endpoints through AWS global network paths; that is why AWS Global Accelerator is preferable here.
B:Availability Zone is intended to separate redundant application components across isolated facilities within one Region because an Availability Zone is one or more discrete data centers with independent infrastructure in a Region; in this design the new outcome is to route user traffic toward healthy regional endpoints through AWS global network paths, which calls for AWS Global Accelerator rather than Availability Zone or the earlier Global IAM identity scope.
C:AWS Region is intended to select a geographic area in which to place a workload because an AWS Region is a distinct geographic location containing multiple Availability Zones; in this design the new outcome is to route user traffic toward healthy regional endpoints through AWS global network paths, which calls for AWS Global Accelerator rather than AWS Region or the earlier Global IAM identity scope.
