Introduction
This video presents a series of AWS Solutions Architect Associate practice exam questions. The speaker aims to help viewers prepare for the exam by providing explanations and highlighting key concepts.
Key Takeaways
AWS KMS is the appropriate service for managing encrypted keys stored in an HSM and migrating them to AWS, supporting key rotation. The speaker explains why other options like AWS Secrets Manager and S3 are unsuitable for this specific task.
For optimizing the performance of a MySQL database in Amazon RDS with delayed application performance, utilizing read replicas is recommended. The speaker analyzes why doubling storage and compute resources is not an efficient solution.
For a DynamoDB application with predictable, peak traffic during weekdays, using auto-scaling is the most cost-effective and scalable solution. The video explains why other options like DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) and on-demand capacity are less suitable.
For migrating a rarely used on-prem application to AWS with minimal database adjustments, Amazon Aurora Serverless is recommended over other options like Amazon RDS for MySQL and DynamoDB. The speaker emphasizes the benefits of serverless architecture in this context.
For transferring large amounts of data (77 terabytes) from on-premises to AWS within 27 days while minimizing storage costs, AWS Snowball is the most suitable solution. The video explains why other methods such as VPN, S3 Standard, and S3 Glacier Deep Archive are less effective given the constraints.
