Question 60

A company is developing a new application. The application uses AWS Lambda functions for its compute tier. The company must use a canary deployment for any changes to the Lambda functions. Automated rollback must occur if any failures are reported.

The company’s DevOps team needs to create the infrastructure as code (IaC) and the CI/CD pipeline for this solution.

Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Choose three.)

Options:

Create an AWS CloudFormation template for the application. Define each Lambda function in the template by using the AWS::Lambda::Function resource type. In the template, include a version for the Lambda function by using the AWS::Lambda::Version resource type. Declare the CodeSha256 property. Configure an AWS::Lambda::Alias resource that references the latest version of the Lambda function.

Create an AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) template for the application. Define each Lambda function in the template by using the AWS::Serverless::Function resource type. For each function, include configurations for the AutoPublishAlias property and the DeploymentPreference property. Configure the deployment configuration type to LambdaCanary10Percent10Minutes.

Create an AWS CodeCommit repository. Create an AWS CodePipeline pipeline. Use the CodeCommit repository in a new source stage that starts the pipeline. Create an AWS CodeBuild project to deploy the AWS Serverless ApplicationModel (AWS SAM) template. Upload the template and source code to the CodeCommit repository. In the CodeCommit repository, create a buildspec.yml file that includes the commands to build and deploy the SAM application.

Create an AWS CodeCommit repository. Create an AWS CodePipeline pipeline. Use the CodeCommit repository in a new source stage that starts the pipeline. Create an AWS CodeDeploy deployment group that is configured for canary deployments with a DeploymentPreference type of Canary10Percent10Minutes. Upload the AWS CloudFormation template and source code to the CodeCommit repository. In the CodeCommit repository, create an appspec.yml file that

Create an Amazon CloudWatch composite alarm for all the Lambda functions. Configure an evaluation period and dimensions for Lambda. Configure the alarm to enter the ALARM state if any errors are detected or if there is insufficient data.

Answer:

B, C, F

Explanation:

The requirement is to create the infrastructure as code (IaC) and the CI/CD pipeline for the Lambda application that uses canary deployment and automated rollback. To do this, the DevOps team needs to use the following steps:

Create an AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) template for the application. AWS SAM is a framework that simplifies the development and deployment of serverless applications on AWS. AWS SAM allows customers to define Lambda functions and other resources in a template by using a simplified syntax. For each Lambda function, the DevOps team can include configurations for the AutoPublishAlias property and the DeploymentPreference property. The AutoPublishAlias property specifies the name of the alias that points to the latest version of the function. The DeploymentPreference property specifies how CodeDeploy deploys new versions of the function. By configuring the deployment configuration type to LambdaCanary10Percent10Minutes, the DevOps team can enable canary deployment with 10% of traffic shifted to the new version every 10 minutes.

Create an AWS CodeCommit repository. Create an AWS CodePipeline pipeline. Use the CodeCommit repository in a new source stage that starts the pipeline. Create an AWS CodeBuild project to deploy the AWS SAM template. CodeCommit is a fully managed source control service that hosts Git repositories. CodePipeline is a fully managed continuous delivery service that automates the release process of software applications. CodeBuild is a fully managed continuous integration service that compiles source code and runs tests. By using these services, the DevOps team can create a CI/CD pipeline for the Lambda application. The pipeline should use the CodeCommit repository as the source stage, where the DevOps team can upload the SAM template and source code. The pipeline should also use a CodeBuild project as the build stage, where the SAM template can be built and deployed.

Create an Amazon CloudWatch alarm for each Lambda function. Configure the alarms to enter the ALARM state if any errors are detected. Configure an evaluation period, dimensions for each Lambda function and version, and the namespace as AWS/Lambda on the Errors metric. CloudWatch is a service that monitors and collects metrics from AWS resources and applications. CloudWatch alarms are actions that are triggered when a metric crosses a specified threshold. By creating CloudWatch alarms for each Lambda function, the DevOps team can monitor the health and performance of each function version during deployment. By configuring the alarms to enter the ALARM state if any errors are detected, the DevOps team can enable automated rollback if any failures are reported.

Question 61

A company has a new AWS account that teams will use to deploy various applications. The teams will create many Amazon S3 buckets for application- specific purposes and to store AWS CloudTrail logs. The company has enabled Amazon Macie for the account.

A DevOps engineer needs to optimize the Macie costs for the account without compromising the account's functionality.

Which solutions will meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)

Options:

Exclude S3 buckets that contain CloudTrail logs from automated discovery.

Exclude S3 buckets that have public read access from automated discovery.

Configure scheduled daily discovery jobs for all S3 buckets in the account.

Configure discovery jobs to include S3 objects based on the last modified criterion.

Configure discovery jobs to include S3 objects that are tagged as production only.

Question 62

A company has configured an Amazon S3 event source on an AWS Lambda function The company needs the Lambda function to run when a new object is created or an existing object IS modified In a particular S3 bucket The Lambda function will use the S3 bucket name and the S3 object key of the incoming event to read the contents of the created or modified S3 object The Lambda function will parse the contents and save the parsed contents to an Amazon DynamoDB table.

The Lambda function's execution role has permissions to read from the S3 bucket and to write to the DynamoDB table, During testing, a DevOps engineer discovers that the Lambda

function does not run when objects are added to the S3 bucket or when existing objects are modified.

Which solution will resolve this problem?

Options:

Increase the memory of the Lambda function to give the function the ability to process large files from the S3 bucket.

Create a resource policy on the Lambda function to grant Amazon S3 the permission to invoke the Lambda function for the S3 bucket

Configure an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue as an OnFailure destination for the Lambda function

Provision space in the /tmp folder of the Lambda function to give the function the ability to process large files from the S3 bucket

Answer:

Explanation:

Option A is incorrect because increasing the memory of the Lambda function does not address the root cause of the problem, which is that the Lambda function is not triggered by the S3 event source. Increasing the memory of the Lambda function might improve its performance or reduce its execution time, but it does not affect its invocation. Moreover, increasing the memory of the Lambda function might incur higher costs, as Lambda charges based on the amount of memory allocated to the function.

Option B is correct because creating a resource policy on the Lambda function to grant Amazon S3 the permission to invoke the Lambda function for the S3 bucket is a necessary step to configure an S3 event source. A resource policy is a JSON document that defines who can access a Lambda resource and underwhat conditions. By granting Amazon S3 permission to invoke the Lambda function, the company ensures that the Lambda function runs when a new object is created or an existing object is modified in the S3 bucket1.

Option C is incorrect because configuring an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue as an On-Failure destination for the Lambda function does not help with triggering the Lambda function. An On-Failure destination is a feature that allows Lambda to send events to another service, such as SQS or Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS), when a function invocation fails. However, this feature only applies to asynchronous invocations, and S3 event sources use synchronous invocations. Therefore, configuring an SQS queue as an On-Failure destination would have no effect on the problem.

Option D is incorrect because provisioning space in the /tmp folder of the Lambda function does not address the root cause of the problem, which is that the Lambda function is not triggered by the S3 event source. Provisioning space in the /tmp folder of the Lambda function might help with processing large files from the S3 bucket, as it provides temporary storage for up to 512 MB of data. However, it does not affect the invocation of the Lambda function.

Question 63

A company is developing a web application's infrastructure using AWS CloudFormation The database engineering team maintains the database resources in a Cloud Formation template, and the software development team maintains the web application resources in a separate CloudFormation template. As the scope of the application grows, the software development team needs to use resources maintained by the database engineering team However, both teams have their own review and lifecycle management processes that they want to keep. Both teams also require resource-level change-set reviews. The software development team would like to deploy changes to this template using their Cl/CD pipeline.

Which solution will meet these requirements?
