Question 200

Within the Security and Compliance domain, which business example MOST clearly illustrates Amazon Cognito, rather than a different AWS concept?

  1. A legacy automation application uses an AWS access-key ID and secret key for API access
  2. A company needs a document specifying allowed or denied AWS actions on selected resources
  3. An auditor from a separate AWS account needs time-limited access to approved audit resources
  4. A mobile application needs sign-up and authentication for its end users

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The decisive requirement is: Use Amazon Cognito for application-user authentication and identity features. This is the role of Amazon Cognito. Cognito focuses on end-user identity for web and mobile applications, not AWS workforce account administration.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This describes a scenario for Access keys: treat access keys as sensitive credentials and rotate or replace them where appropriate. AWS access keys enable programmatic authentication and must not be committed to public repositories. It is not the most direct example of Amazon Cognito.

B:

This describes a scenario for IAM policies: use IAM policy statements that define access permissions. An IAM policy expresses permissions; it is not itself a human identity or a network firewall. It is not the most direct example of Amazon Cognito.

C:

This describes a scenario for Cross-account role access: assume an appropriately trusted IAM role across accounts. Cross-account role trust enables authorized temporary access without copying long-term keys to the external account. It is not the most direct example of Amazon Cognito.

Question 201

A project manager compares AWS Lambda with other AWS concepts while considering this need: an online form should run short application code only when events occur without managing servers. Which pairing assigns the responsibilities or benefits correctly?

  1. AWS Lambda: support event-driven serverless function execution; Elastic Load Balancing: distribute inbound traffic among healthy application targets
  2. AWS Lambda: support serverless container compute; AWS Fargate: support event-driven serverless function execution
  3. AWS Lambda: distribute inbound traffic among healthy application targets; Elastic Load Balancing: support event-driven serverless function execution
  4. AWS Lambda: support AWS-hosted Kubernetes orchestration; Amazon EKS: support event-driven serverless function execution

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The first pairing identifies AWS Lambda with its actual role: use AWS Lambda for event-driven serverless function execution. Lambda executes event-triggered code without the customer managing underlying servers, subject to service limits. The comparison is valid because Elastic Load Balancing instead addresses use Elastic Load Balancing to distribute incoming workload traffic.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The roles are swapped. AWS Fargate is associated with use AWS Fargate for serverless container compute; AWS Lambda instead has the role: Use AWS Lambda for event-driven serverless function execution. Lambda executes event-triggered code without the customer managing underlying servers, subject to service limits.

C:

The roles are swapped. Elastic Load Balancing is associated with use Elastic Load Balancing to distribute incoming workload traffic; AWS Lambda instead has the role: Use AWS Lambda for event-driven serverless function execution. Lambda executes event-triggered code without the customer managing underlying servers, subject to service limits.

D:

The roles are swapped. Amazon EKS is associated with use Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service for AWS-hosted Kubernetes orchestration; AWS Lambda instead has the role: Use AWS Lambda for event-driven serverless function execution. Lambda executes event-triggered code without the customer managing underlying servers, subject to service limits.

Question 202

An application needs controlled storage and rotation of a database password. Which AWS service or cloud concept is the MOST direct match for this need?

  1. Access keys
  2. AWS Secrets Manager
  3. Amazon Cognito
  4. Cross-account role access

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

AWS Secrets Manager fits the need because secrets Manager manages sensitive credentials and supports rotation workflows; IAM policies determine who may retrieve a secret. The relevant capability or responsibility is: Store and manage application secrets with AWS Secrets Manager.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Access keys is associated with a different use case: a legacy automation application uses an AWS access-key ID and secret key for API access. AWS access keys enable programmatic authentication and must not be committed to public repositories. The question instead focuses on an application needs controlled storage and rotation of a database password; AWS Secrets Manager is the more direct match.

C:

Amazon Cognito identity is associated with a different use case: a mobile application needs sign-up and authentication for its end users. Cognito focuses on end-user identity for web and mobile applications, not AWS workforce account administration. The question instead focuses on an application needs controlled storage and rotation of a database password; AWS Secrets Manager is the more direct match.

D:

Cross-account role access is associated with a different use case: an auditor from a separate AWS account needs time-limited access to approved audit resources. Cross-account role trust enables authorized temporary access without copying long-term keys to the external account. The question instead focuses on an application needs controlled storage and rotation of a database password; AWS Secrets Manager is the more direct match.

Question 203

Within the Cloud Concepts domain, which business example MOST clearly illustrates Measure outcomes, rather than a different AWS concept?

  1. A department wants to eliminate idle spending and understand the cost of delivering business value
  2. A company expects its cloud usage and business requirements to evolve frequently
  3. A cloud team cannot tell whether a change improved customer-facing performance
  4. An application needs to recover predictably from failures and adapt when demand changes

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The decisive requirement is: Use operational metrics and business outcomes to evaluate improvements. This is the role of Measure outcomes. The Well-Architected approach encourages observing real workload outcomes rather than relying only on resource existence.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This describes a scenario for Cost Optimization pillar: avoid unnecessary expense while delivering required outcomes. Cost Optimization includes understanding expenditure, selecting cost-effective resources, and managing demand and supply. It is not the most direct example of Measure outcomes.

B:

This describes a scenario for Design for expected change: revisit architecture decisions as requirements and capabilities change. Cloud design principles favor adaptability and continual evaluation over treating an early configuration as permanently optimal. It is not the most direct example of Measure outcomes.

D:

This describes a scenario for Reliability pillar: recover from disruptions and perform the intended function consistently. The Reliability pillar emphasizes recovery, distributed design, and meeting availability requirements. It is not the most direct example of Measure outcomes.

Question 205

A stakeholder is considering Retaining a workload because a business must keep a legacy production system on premises until a contractual restriction expires. What is the MOST relevant capability or benefit?

  1. Leave a selected workload in its existing environment for now
  2. Meet this requirement: an organization must transfer a very large volume of data from a remote site with insufficient network bandwidth
  3. Decommission an unneeded application rather than migrate it
  4. Migrate and optionally replicate data between supported database endpoints

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Leave a selected workload in its existing environment for now. Retaining is an intentional decision to defer migration when business or technical constraints make an immediate move inappropriate. The stated need is specifically a business must keep a legacy production system on premises until a contractual restriction expires.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This outcome fits AWS Snow Family: AWS Snow devices support moving large datasets when transferring everything over a network is slow or constrained. The stakeholder requires the more specific capability provided by Retaining a workload, not that separate benefit.

C:

This outcome fits Retiring an application: Retiring eliminates redundant or unused workloads so migration effort is not spent on systems with no continuing value. The stakeholder requires the more specific capability provided by Retaining a workload, not that separate benefit.

D:

This outcome fits AWS Database Migration Service: AWS DMS can transfer data and support change data capture for applicable database migration scenarios. The stakeholder requires the more specific capability provided by Retaining a workload, not that separate benefit.
