Amazon AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer - Associate Sample Questions (Q286-Q291):

NEW QUESTION # 286
A company runs multiple Amazon EC2 instances that are distributed across multiple AWS Regions. The company uses AWS Systems Manager tools to manage the EC2 instances. The company needs to deploy an auditing software package onto every instance to record user logins and any actions that users take.
A CloudOps engineer must implement a solution that automatically installs the auditing software on all existing EC2 instances. The solution also must automatically install the auditing software on any new EC2 instances when they are launched.
Which solution will meet these requirements?

A. Create an AWS Lambda function that calls the software installer. Merge the auditing software into the Lambda function by using Lambda layers. Run the Lambda function from each instance by using a scheduled Amazon EventBridge rule.
B. Create a Systems Manager Distributor package that includes the auditing software. Store the package in an Amazon S3 bucket. Create a Systems Manager State Manager association in each Region to install the software package on all managed instances in the company's AWS account.
C. Load the installer for the auditing software into an Amazon S3 bucket. Connect to every instance by using Systems Manager Fleet Manager Remote Desktop. Download the installer by using the AWS CLI. Run the installer manually.
D. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to react to Amazon EC2 RunInstances events. Configure the rule to modify the events to include a step that runs the software installer. Reboot all the instances.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Systems Manager Distributor can package and distribute software to managed instances, and Systems Manager State Manager can enforce that the package remains installed across all targeted instances. Creating associations in each Region ensures the auditing software is automatically installed on existing managed EC2 instances and on new managed instances after they launch.

NEW QUESTION # 287
An Amazon EC2 instance is running an application that uses Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queues. A CloudOps engineer must ensure that the application can read, write, and delete messages from the SQS queues.
Which solution will meet these requirements in the MOST secure manner?

A. Create an IAM user with an IAM policy that allows the sqs:SendMessage permission, the sqs:
ReceiveMessage permission, and the sqs:DeleteMessage permission to the appropriate queues. Export the IAM user's access key and secret access key as environment variables on the EC2 instance.
B. Create and associate an IAM role that allows EC2 instances to call AWS services. Attach an IAM policy to the role that allows sqs:* permissions to the appropriate queues.
C. Create and associate an IAM role that allows EC2 instances to call AWS services. Attach an IAM policy to the role that allows the sqs:SendMessage permission, the sqs:ReceiveMessage permission, and the sqs:DeleteMessage permission to the appropriate queues.
D. Create an IAM user with an IAM policy that allows the sqs:SendMessage permission, the sqs:
ReceiveMessage permission, and the sqs:DeleteMessage permission to the appropriate queues. Embed the IAM user's credentials in the application's configuration.

Answer: C

Explanation:
The most secure pattern is to use an IAM role for Amazon EC2 with the minimum required permissions.
AWS guidance states: "Use roles for applications that run on Amazon EC2 instances" and "grant least privilege by allowing only the actions required to perform a task." By attaching a role to the instance, short- lived credentials are automatically provided through the instance metadata service; this removes the need to create long-term access keys or embed secrets. Granting only sqs:SendMessage, sqs:ReceiveMessage, and sqs:DeleteMessage against the specific SQS queues enforces least privilege and aligns with CloudOps security controls. Options A and B rely on IAM user access keys, which contravene best practices for workloads on EC2 and increase credential-management risk. Option C uses a role but grants sqs:*, violating least-privilege principles. Therefore, Option D meets the security requirement with scoped, temporary credentials and precise permissions.

NEW QUESTION # 288
A CloudOps engineer needs to track the costs of data transfer between AWS Regions. The CloudOps engineer must implement a solution to send alerts to an email distribution list when transfer costs reach 75% of a specific threshold.
What should the CloudOps engineer do to meet these requirements?

A. Create an AWS Cost and Usage Report. Analyze the results in Amazon Athena. Configure an alarm to publish a message to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic when costs reach 75% of the threshold. Subscribe the email distribution list to the topic.
B. Use AWS Budgets to create a cost budget for data transfer costs. Set an alert at 75% of the budgeted amount. Configure the budget to send a notification to the email distribution list when costs reach 75% of the threshold.
C. Create an Amazon CloudWatch billing alarm to detect when costs reach 75% of the threshold.
Configure the alarm to publish a message to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Subscribe the email distribution list to the topic.
D. Set up a VPC flow log. Set up a subscription filter to an AWS Lambda function to analyze data transfer. Configure the Lambda function to send a notification to the email distribution list when costs reach 75% of the threshold.

Answer: B

Explanation:
According to the AWS Cloud Operations and Cost Management documentation, AWS Budgets is the recommended service to track and alert on cost thresholds across all AWS accounts and resources. It allows users to define cost, usage, or reservation budgets, and configure notifications to trigger when usage or cost reaches defined percentages of the budgeted value (e.g., 75%, 90%, 100%).
The AWS Budgets system integrates natively with Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) to deliver alerts to an email distribution list or SNS topic subscribers. AWS Budgets supports granular cost filters, including specific service categories such as data transfer, regions, or linked accounts, ensuring precise visibility into inter-Region transfer costs.
By contrast, CloudWatch billing alarms (Option B) monitor total account charges only and do not allow detailed service-level filtering, such as data transfer between Regions. Cost and Usage Reports (Option A) are for detailed cost analysis, not real-time alerting, and VPC Flow Logs (Option D) capture traffic data, not billing or cost-based metrics.
Thus, using AWS Budgets with a 75% alert threshold best satisfies the operational and notification requirements.

NEW QUESTION # 289
A company's application consists of AWS Lambda functions that access an Amazon RDS instance. Occasionally, the application load creates an unexpectedly high volume of database connections. The high volume of connections causes the RDS instance to rapidly exhaust its compute resources, leading to downtime for users.
A CloudOps Administrator must make the application more resilient to increased load without making modifications to the application code.
Which solution will meet these requirements?

A. Use Amazon ElastiCache (Memcached) with Amazon RDS. Point the application to ElastiCache (Memcached).
B. Use Amazon ElastiCache (Redis OSS) with Amazon RDS. Point the application to ElastiCache (Redis OSS).
C. Use Amazon RDS Proxy with Amazon RDS. Point the application to Amazon RDS Proxy.
D. Create a Lambda function with that invokes an Amazon EventBridge rule to scale the RDS instance based on usage.

Answer: C

Explanation:
Amazon RDS Proxy pools and reuses database connections from Lambda functions, reducing the number of direct connections to the RDS instance during traffic spikes. This helps prevent connection exhaustion and improves application resilience without requiring changes to the application's database logic.

NEW QUESTION # 290
A company must ensure that all Amazon EC2 Windows instances that are launched in an AWS account have a third-party agent installed. The company uses AWS Systems Manager, and the Windows instances are tagged appropriately. The company must deploy periodic updates to the third-party agent when the updates become available.
Which combination of steps will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational effort? (Select TWO.)

A. Create a Systems Manager State Manager association to run the AWS-RunRemoteScript document.
Populate the details of the third-party agent package.
B. Create a Systems Manager Distributor package for the third-party agent.
C. Create a Systems Manager State Manager association to run the AWS-ConfigureAWSPackage document. Populate the details of the third-party agent package. Specify instance targets based on the appropriate tag value for Windows.
D. Create a Systems Manager OpsItem that includes the tag value for Windows. Attach Systems Manager inventory to the OpsItem.
E. Create an AWS Lambda function. Program the Lambda function to log in to each instance and to install or update the third-party agent as needed.

Answer: B,C

Explanation:
Comprehensive Explanation (250-350 words):
The least-effort, most scalable approach to ensure consistent software installation and ongoing updates across tagged Windows instances is to use AWS Systems Manager's native software distribution and desired-state capabilities. Systems Manager Distributor lets you package third-party software as an "SSM package," version it, and publish updates in a controlled way. This directly supports the requirement to install a third- party agent and deploy periodic updates when new versions are available.
State Manager Associations let you enforce configuration continuously or on a schedule across a fleet, targeting instances by tags (which the scenario explicitly says are in place). By creating an association that runs AWS-ConfigureAWSPackage, you instruct Systems Manager to install (and optionally update) a specific SSM package on all instances that match the Windows tag criteria. This provides ongoing compliance: newly launched instances that receive the tag will automatically get the agent installed, and existing instances will receive updates according to the association's frequency and the package version strategy.
Option C (custom Lambda that logs in) is high operational overhead and poor practice (credentials, connectivity, error handling, scaling, and security concerns). Option D (RunRemoteScript) can work but is more brittle than ConfigureAWSPackage because it shifts lifecycle management (versioning, state, idempotency) into scripts. Option B (OpsItem + Inventory) is not an enforcement mechanism for installation
/updating; it's for operations tracking and visibility.
Therefore, Distributor (A) + State Manager association using AWS-ConfigureAWSPackage targeted by tags (E) is the cleanest and lowest-ops solution.
