Press to flip
AWS CodePipeline automates the steps required to release software changes continuously, integrating with other AWS services to enable fast and reliable application updates.
How does Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) contribute to disaster recovery and high availability?
EKS ensures fault tolerance and high availability of applications by managing Kubernetes containers across multiple AWS availability zones.
What AWS service is primarily used for automating the deployment of a multi-tier web application that is highly available and scalable?
AWS CloudFormation
How does AWS CloudWatch assist in the detection and monitoring of suspicious activities?
AWS CloudWatch monitors AWS resources and applications, allowing for the setting of alarms and notifications on unusual or suspicious metrics, aiding in security monitoring.
Describe the disaster recovery strategy using Multi-AZ deployments for RDS.
Multi-AZ deployments for RDS provide high availability and failover support by automatically provisioning and managing a synchronous standby replica in a different Availability Zone.
What AWS service provides a dashboard for log visualization and what are its capabilities?
AWS OpenSearch provides a dashboard for log visualization, offering capabilities for real-time application monitoring and operational intelligence.
What is the purpose of AWS OpenSearch in the context of monitoring and logging?
AWS OpenSearch allows for the visualization and analysis of logs, helping in troubleshooting and gaining insights from data.
What role does AWS CloudWatch play in monitoring AWS infrastructure?
AWS CloudWatch provides monitoring for AWS cloud resources and applications, tracking metrics, setting alarms, and automatically reacting to changes in AWS resources.
What are the key components of a CI/CD pipeline in AWS?
AWS CodeCommit, AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodeDeploy, and AWS CodePipeline
How does AWS CodeDeploy enhance the deployment process to EC2 or ECS?
AWS CodeDeploy automates software deployments to various AWS services such as EC2 and ECS, enabling consistent, reliable, and fast updates.
How does AWS CloudTrail contribute to security and compliance in AWS?
AWS CloudTrail logs and continuously monitors account activity related to actions across AWS infrastructure, aiding in security and compliance auditing.
What security measures should be implemented in AWS to comply with industry standards like HIPAA and GDPR?
Implement Role-Based Access Control, Multi-Factor Authentication, use AWS KMS for encryption, AWS Secrets Manager for secret management, and ensure proper configurations of Route 53 and WAF.
What are the benefits of using Amazon RDS with Multi-AZ deployments for database availability?
Amazon RDS with Multi-AZ deployments enhances database availability and durability, automatically replicating data to a standby instance in a different Availability Zone to provide failover capability.
How does AWS Key Management Service (KMS) enhance data protection?
AWS KMS provides managed creation and control of encryption keys used to encrypt data, ensuring secure data storage and transfer.
What is the role of AWS Secrets Manager in a CI/CD pipeline?
AWS Secrets Manager securely stores and manages access to secrets, such as API keys and credentials, used in the CI/CD pipeline.
Which AWS services are involved in storing and managing container images for a web application?
Amazon ECS for container management and Amazon ECR for storing and loading images
