1. You need to deploy an AWS(Amazon Web Service) stack in a repeatable manner across multiple environments. You have selected Cloud Formation as the right tool to accomplish this, but have found that there is a resource type you need to create and model, but is unsupported by Cloud Formation. How should you overcome this challenge?

A) Submit a ticket to the AWS(Amazon Web Service) Forums. AWS(Amazon Web Service) extends Cloud Formation Resource Types by releasing tooling to ti AWS(Amazon Web Service) Labs organization on Git Hub. Their response time is usually 1 day. and they complete requests within a week or two.
B) Create a Cloud Formation Custom Resource Type by Implementing create. update. and delete functionality. either by subscribing a Custom Resource Provider to an SNS topic. or by implementing the logic in AWS(Amazon Web Service) Lambda.
C) Instead of depending on Cloud Formation, use Chef, Puppet. or Ensile to author Heat templates, which are declarative stack resource definitions that operate over the Open Stack hypervisor and cloud environment.
D) Use a Cloud Formation Custom Resource Template by selecting an API call to proxy for create, update. and delete actions. Cloud Formation will use the AWS(Amazon Web Service) SDK. CLI, or API method of your choosing as the state transition function for the resource type you are modeling.



2. You are building a Ruby on Rails application for internal, non-production use which uses My SQL as a database. You want developers without very much AWS(Amazon Web Service) experience to be able to deploy new code with a single command line push. You also want to set this up as simply as possible. Which tool is ideal for this setup?

A) AWS Cloud Formation
B) AWS Ops Works
C) AWS ELS + EC2 with CLI Push
D) AWS Elastic Beanstalk



3. You need to create a Route53 record automatically in Cloud Formation when not running in production during all launches of a Template. How should you Implement this?

A) Use a Parameter for environment, and add a Condition on the Route53 Resource in the template to create the record with a null string when environment Is production.
B) Use a Parameter for environment, and add a Condition on the Route53 Resource in the template to create the record only when environment Is not production.
C) Create two templates, one with the Route53 record and one without it. Use the one without it when deploying to production.
D) Create two templates. one with the Route53 record value and one with a null value for the record. Use the one without it when deploying to production.



4. You are planning on using encrypted snapshots in the design of your AWS(Amazon Web Service) Infrastructure. Which of the following statements are true with regards to EBS Encryption Please select:

A) Snap shooting an encrypted volume makes an encrypted snapshot when specified I requested; restoring an encrypted snapshot always creates an encrypted volume.
B) Snap shooting an encrypted volume makes an encrypted snapshot: restoring an encrypted snapshot creates an encrypted volume when specified / requested.
C) Snap shooting an encrypted volume makes an encrypted snapshot restoring an encrypted snapshot alway: creates an encrypted volume.
D) Snap shooting an encrypted volume makes an encrypted snapshot when specified I requested: restoring an encrypted snapshot creates an encrypted volume when specified / requested.



5. What is required to achieve gigabit network throughput on EC2? You already selected cluster-compute, 10GB instances with enhanced networking, and your workload is already network-bound, but you are not seeing 10 gigabit speeds.

A) Select PIOPS for your drives and mount several, so you can provision sufficient disk throughput.
B) Enable diplex networking on your servers, so packets are non-blocking in both directions and theres no switching overhead.
C) Ensure the instances are in different VPC5 so you don?t saturate the Internet Gateway on any one VPC.
D) Use a placement group for your instances so the instances are physically near each other in the same Availability Zone.
