You have a global corporate network with 153 individual IP prefixes in your internal routing table. You establish a private virtual interface over AWS Direct Connect to a VPC that has an Internet gateway (IGW). All instances in the VPC must be able to route to the Internet via an IGW and route to the global corporate network via the VGW.
How should you configure your on-premises BGP peer to meet these requirements?
Answer : B
An organization is replacing a tape backup system with a storage gateway. there is currently no connectivity to AWS. Initial testing is needed.
What connection option should the organization use to get up and running at minimal cost?
Answer : A
Your company runs an application for the US market in the us-east-1 AWS region. This application uses proprietary TCP and UDP protocols on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances. End users run a real-time, front-end application on their local PCs. This front-end application knows the DNS hostname of the service.
You must prepare the system for global expansion. The end users must access the application with lowest latency.
How should you use AWS services to meet these requirements?
Answer : B
A customer has set up multiple VPCs for Dev, Test, Prod, and Management. You need to set up AWS Direct Connect to enable data flow from on-premises to each VPC. The customer has monitoring software running in the Management VPC that collects metrics from the instances in all the other VPCs. Due to budget requirements, data transfer charges should be kept at minimum.
Which design should be recommended?
Answer : D
- creating VPC peering is free of charge - traffic costs ~0.01/GB for VPC peering (IN + OUT) and ~0.02/GB for direct connect (OUT only). As the communication involved in monitoring will never have IN == OUT, then 0.01 * (IN + OUT) will always be lower the 0.02 * OUT, ergo VPC peering will be cheaper
Your organization leverages an IP Address Management (IPAM) product to manage IP address distribution. The IPAM exposes an API. Development teams use CloudFormation to provision approved reference architectures. At deployment time, IP addresses must be allocated to the VPC. When the VPC is deleted, the IPAM must reclaim the VPC's IP allocation.
Which method allows for efficient, automated integration of the IPAM with CloudFormation?
Answer : B
Cloudformation chapter under exam essentials it says 'custom resources in an AWS cloudformation template allows you to configure non-aws resources not supported by AWS. You can use custom resources to make calls to an IPAM'
You deploy your Internet-facing application is the us-west-2(Oregon) region. To manage this application and upload content from your corporate network, you have a 1--Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection with a private virtual interface via one of the associated Direct Connect locations. In normal operation, you use approximately 300 Mbps of the available bandwidth, which is more than your Internet connection from the corporate network.
You need to deploy another identical instance of the application is us-east-1(N Virginia) as soon as possible. You need to use the benefits of Direct Connect. Your design must be the most effective solution regarding cost, performance, and time to deploy.
Which design should you choose?
You are building an application in AWS that requires Amazon Elastic MapReduce (Amazon EMR). The application needs to resolve hostnames in your internal, on-premises Active Directory domain. You update your DHCP Options Set in the VPC to point to a pair of Active Directory integrated DNS servers running in your VPC.
Which action is required to support a successful Amazon EMR cluster launch?
