A company that develops consumer electronics with offices in Europe and Asia has 60 TB of software images stored on premises in Europe. The company wants to transfer the images to an Amazon S3 bucket in the ap-northeast-1 Region. New software images are created daily and must be encrypted in transit. The company needs a solution that does not require custom development to automatically transfer all existing and new software images to Amazon S3.
What is the next step in the transfer process?
A. Deploy an AWS DataSync agent and configure a task to transfer the images to the S3 bucket.
B. Configure Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to transfer the images using S3 Transfer Acceleration.
C. Use an AWS Snowball device to transfer the images with the S3 bucket as the target.
D. Transfer the images over a Site-to-Site VPN connection using the S3 API with multipart upload.
A company that provides image storage services wants to deploy a customer-lacing solution to AWS. Millions of individual customers will use the solution. The solution will receive batches of large image files, resize the files, and store the files in an Amazon S3 bucket for up to 6 months.
The solution must handle significant variance in demand. The solution must also be reliable at enterprise scale and have the ability to rerun processing jobs in the event of failure.
Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?
A. Use AWS Step Functions to process the S3 event that occurs when a user stores an image. Run an AWS Lambda function that resizes the image in place and replaces the original file in the S3 bucket. Create an S3 Lifecycle expiration policy to expire all stored images after 6 months.
B. Use Amazon EventBridge to process the S3 event that occurs when a user uploads an image. Run an AWS Lambda function that resizes the image in place and replaces the original file in the S3 bucket. Create an S3 Lifecycle expiration policy to expire all stored images after 6 months.
C. Use S3 Event Notifications to invoke an AWS Lambda function when a user stores an image. Use the Lambda function to resize the image in place and to store the original file in the S3 bucket. Create an S3 Lifecycle policy to move all stored images to S3 Standard- Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) after 6 months.
D. Use Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) to process the S3 event that occurs when a user stores an image. Run an AWS Lambda function that resizes the image and stores the resized file in an S3 bucket that uses S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA). Create an S3 Lifecycle policy to move all stored images to S3 Glacier Deep Archive after 6 months.
A company needs to monitor a growing number of Amazon S3 buckets across two AWS Regions. The company also needs to track the percentage of objects that are encrypted in Amazon S3. The company needs a dashboard to display this information for internal compliance teams.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?
A. Create a new S3 Storage Lens dashboard in each Region to track bucket and encryption metrics. Aggregate data from both Region dashboards into a single dashboard in Amazon QuickSight for the compliance teams.
B. Deploy an AWS Lambda function in each Region to list the number of buckets and the encryption status of objects. Store this data in Amazon S3. Use Amazon Athena queries to display the data on a custom dashboard in Amazon QuickSight for the compliance teams.
C. Use the S3 Storage Lens default dashboard to track bucket and encryption metrics. Give the compliance teams access to the dashboard directly in the S3 console.
D. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to detect AWS Cloud Trail events for S3 object creation. Configure the rule to invoke an AWS Lambda function to record encryption metrics in Amazon DynamoDB. Use Amazon QuickSight to display the metrics in a dashboard for the compliance teams.
A company needs to migrate an on-premises SFTP site to AWS. The SFTP site currently runs on a Linux VM. Uploaded files are made available to downstream applications through an NFS share.
As part of the migration to AWS, a solutions architect must implement high availability. The solution must provide external vendors with a set of static public IP addresses that the vendors can allow. The company has set up an AWS Direct Connect connection between its on-premises data center and its VPC.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

A company is hosting an application on AWS for a project that will run for the next 3 years. The application consists of 20 Amazon EC2 On-Demand Instances that are registered in a target group for a Network Load Balancer (NLB). The instances are spread across two Availability Zones. The application is stateless and runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The company receives reports from users who are experiencing slow responses from the application. Performance metrics show that the instances are at 10% CPU utilization during normal application use. However, the CPU utilization increases to 100% at busy times, which typically last for a few hours.
The company needs a new architecture to resolve the problem of slow responses from the application.
Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?
A. Create an Auto Scaling group. Attach the Auto Scaling group to the target group of the NLB. Set the minimum capacity to 20 and the desired capacity to 28. Purchase Reserved Instances for 20 instances.
B. Create a Spot Fleet that has a request type of request. Set the TotalTargetCapacity parameter to 20. Set the DefaultTargetCapacityType parameter to On-Demand. Specify the NLB when creating the Spot Fleet.
C. Create a Spot Fleet that has a request type of maintain. Set the TotalTargetCapacity parameter to 20. Set the DefaultTargetCapacityType parameter to Spot. Replace the NLB with an Application Load Balancer.
D. Create an Auto Scaling group. Attach the Auto Scaling group to the target group of the NLB. Set the minimum capacity to 4 and the maximum capacity to 28. Purchase Reserved Instances for four instances.
