Question: 87
A database specialist manages a critical Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instance for a company. The data stored daily could vary from .01% to 10% of the current
database size. The database specialist needs to ensure that the DB instance storage grows as needed.
What is the MOST operationally efficient and cost-effective solution?
A. Configure RDS Storage Auto Scaling.
B. Configure RDS instance Auto Scaling.
C. Modify the DB instance allocated storage to meet the forecasted requirements.
D. Monitor the Amazon CloudWatch FreeStorageSpace metric daily and add storage as required.
Answer: A
Explanation:
If your workload is unpredictable, you can enable storage autoscaling for an Amazon RDS DB instance. With storage autoscaling enabled, when Amazon RDS detects
that you are running out of free database space it automatically scales up your storage. https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2019/06/rds-storage-auto-scaling/

Question: 88
A company is due for renewing its database license. The company wants to migrate its 80 TB transactional database system from on-premises to the AWS Cloud. The
migration should incur the least possible downtime on the downstream database applications. The companyâs network infrastructure has limited network bandwidth that
is shared with other applications.
Which solution should a database specialist use for a timely migration?
A. Perform a full backup of the source database to AWS Snowball Edge appliances and ship them to be loaded to Amazon S3. Use AWS DMS to migrate change data
capture (CDC) data from the source database to Amazon S3. Use a second AWS DMS task to migrate all the S3 data to the target database.
B. Perform a full backup of the source database to AWS Snowball Edge appliances and ship them to be loaded to Amazon S3. Periodically perform incremental
backups of the source database to be shipped in another Snowball Edge appliance to handle syncing change data capture (CDC) data from the source to the target
database.
C. Use AWS DMS to migrate the full load of the source database over a VPN tunnel using the internet for its primary connection. Allow AWS DMS to handle syncing
change data capture (CDC) data from the source to the target database.
D. Use the AWS Schema Conversion Tool (AWS SCT) to migrate the full load of the source database over a VPN tunnel using the internet for its primary connection.
Allow AWS SCT to handle syncing change data capture (CDC) data from the source to the target database.
Answer: A

Question: 89
A database specialist is responsible for an Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instance with one read replica. The DB instance and the read replica are assigned to the
default parameter group. The database team currently runs test queries against a read replica. The database team wants to create additional tables in the read replica that
will only be accessible from the read replica to benefit the tests.
Which should the database specialist do to allow the database team to create the test tables?
A. Contact AWS Support to disable read-only mode on the read replica. Reboot the read replica.
Connect to the read replica and create the tables.
B. Change the read_only parameter to false (read_only=0) in the default parameter group of the read replica. Perform a reboot without failover. Connect to the read
replica and create the tables using the local_only MySQL option.
C. Change the read_only parameter to false (read_only=0) in the default parameter group. Reboot the read replica. Connect to the read replica and create the tables.
D. Create a new DB parameter group. Change the read_only parameter to false (read_only=0). Associate the read replica with the new group. Reboot the read replica.
Connect to the read replica and create the tables.

Question: 90
A company has a heterogeneous six-node production Amazon Aurora DB cluster that handles online transaction processing (OLTP) for the core business and OLAP
reports for the human resources department. To match compute resources to the use case, the company has decided to have the reporting workload for the human
resources department be directed to two small nodes in the Aurora DB cluster, while every other workload goes to four large nodes in the same DB cluster.
Which option would ensure that the correct nodes are always available for the appropriate workload while meeting these requirements?
A. Use the writer endpoint for OLTP and the reader endpoint for the OLAP reporting workload.
B. Use automatic scaling for the Aurora Replica to have the appropriate number of replicas for the desired workload.
C. Create additional readers to cater to the different scenarios.
D. Use custom endpoints to satisfy the different workloads.
Answer: D
Explanation:
https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2018/11/amazon-aurora-simplifies-workload-management-with-custom-endpoints/
You can now create custom endpoints for Amazon Aurora databases. This allows you to distribute and load balance workloads across different sets of database
instances in your Aurora cluster. For example, you may provision a set of Aurora Replicas to use an instance type with higher memory capacity in order to run an
analytics workload. A custom endpoint can then help you route the analytics workload to these appropriately-configured instances, while keeping other instances in
your cluster isolated from this workload. As you add or remove instances from the custom endpoint to match your workload, the endpoint helps spread the load around.
Question: 91
Developers have requested a new Amazon Redshift cluster so they can load new third-party marketing data. The new cluster is ready and the user credentials are given
to the developers.
The developers indicate that their copy jobs fail with the following error message:
âAmazon Invalid operation: S3ServiceException:Access Denied,Status 403,Error AccessDenied.â
The developers need to load this data soon, so a database specialist must act quickly to solve this issue.
What is the MOST secure solution?
A. Create a new IAM role with the same user name as the Amazon Redshift developer user I
B. Provide the IAM role with read-only access to Amazon S3 with the assume role action.
C. Create a new IAM role with read-only access to the Amazon S3 bucket and include the assume role action. Modify the Amazon Redshift cluster to add the IAM
role.
D. Create a new IAM role with read-only access to the Amazon S3 bucket with the assume role action. Add this role to the developer IAM user ID used for the copy
job that ended with an error message.
E. Create a new IAM user with access keys and a new role with read-only access to the Amazon S3 bucket. Add this role to the Amazon Redshift cluster. Change the
copy job to use the access keys created.
Answer: B
Explanation:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/gsg/rs-gsg-create-an-iam-role.html
"Now that you have created the new role, your next step is to attach it to your cluster. You can attach
the role when you launch a new cluster or you can attach it to an existing cluster. In the next step, you attach the role to a new cluster."

Question: 92
A database specialist at a large multi-national financial company is in charge of designing the disaster recovery strategy for a highly available application that is in
development. The application uses an Amazon DynamoDB table as its data store. The application requires a recovery time objective (RTO) of 1 minute and a recovery
point objective (RPO) of 2 minutes.
Which operationally efficient disaster recovery strategy should the database specialist recommend for the DynamoDB table?
A. Create a DynamoDB stream that is processed by an AWS Lambda function that copies the data to a DynamoDB table in another Region.
B. Use a DynamoDB global table replica in another Region. Enable point-in-time recovery for both tables.
C. Use a DynamoDB Accelerator table in another Region. Enable point-in-time recovery for the table.
D. Create an AWS Backup plan and assign the DynamoDB table as a resource.
Answer: C
Question: 93
A small startup company is looking to migrate a 4 TB on-premises MySQL database to AWS using an Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instance.
Which strategy would allow for a successful migration with the LEAST amount of downtime?
A. Deploy a new RDS for MySQL DB instance and configure it for access from the on-premises data center. Use the mysqldump utility to create an initial snapshot
from the on-premises MySQL server, and copy it to an Amazon S3 bucket. Import the snapshot into the DB instance utilizing the MySQL utilities running on an
Amazon EC2 instance. Immediately point the application to the DB instance.
B. Deploy a new Amazon EC2 instance, install the MySQL software on the EC2 instance, and configure networking for access from the on-premises data center. Use
the mysqldump utility to create a snapshot of the on-premises MySQL server. Copy the snapshot into the EC2 instance and restore it into the EC2 MySQL instance.
Use AWS DMS to migrate data into a new RDS for MySQL DB instance. Point the application to the DB instance.
C. Deploy a new Amazon EC2 instance, install the MySQL software on the EC2 instance, and configure networking for access from the on-premises data center. Use
the mysqldump utility to create a snapshot of the on-premises MySQL server. Copy the snapshot into an Amazon S3 bucket and import the snapshot into a new RDS
for MySQL DB instance using the MySQL utilities running on an EC2 instance. Point the application to the DB instance.
D. Deploy a new RDS for MySQL DB instance and configure it for access from the on-premises data center. Use the mysqldump utility to create an initial snapshot
from the on-premises MySQL server, and copy it to an Amazon S3 bucket. Import the snapshot into the DB instance using the MySQL utilities running on an Amazon
EC2 instance. Establish replication into the new DB instance using MySQL replication. Stop application access to the on-premises MySQL server and let the remaining
transactions replicate over. Point the application to the DB instance.
Answer: B
Question: 94
A software development company is using Amazon Aurora MySQL DB clusters for several use cases, including development and reporting. These use cases place
unpredictable and varying demands on the Aurora DB clusters, and can cause momentary spikes in latency. System users run ad-hoc queries sporadically throughout
the week. Cost is a primary concern for the company, and a solution that does not require significant rework is needed.
Which solution meets these requirements?
A. Create new Aurora Serverless DB clusters for development and reporting, then migrate to these new DB clusters.
B. Upgrade one of the DB clusters to a larger size, and consolidate development and reporting activities on this larger DB cluster.
C. Use existing DB clusters and stop/start the databases on a routine basis using scheduling tools.
D. Change the DB clusters to the burstable instance family.
Answer: A
Explanation:

Question: 95
A database specialist is building a system that uses a static vendor dataset of postal codes and related territory information that is less than 1 GB in size. The dataset is
loaded into the applicationâs cache at start up. The company needs to store this data in a way that provides the lowest cost with a low application startup time.
Which approach will meet these requirements?
A. Use an Amazon RDS DB instance. Shut down the instance once the data has been read.
B. Use Amazon Aurora Serverless. Allow the service to spin resources up and down, as needed.
C. Use Amazon DynamoDB in on-demand capacity mode.
D. Use Amazon S3 and load the data from flat files.
Answer: D
Explanation:
https://www.sumologic.com/insight/s3-cost-optimization/
For example, for 1 GB file stored on S3 with 1 TB of storage provisioned, you are billed for 1 GB only. In a lot of other services such as Amazon EC2, Amazon
Elastic Block Storage (Amazon EBS) and Amazon DynamoDB you pay for provisioned capacity. For example, in the case of Amazon EBS disk you pay for the size of
1 TB of disk even if you just save 1 GB file. This makes managing S3 cost easier than many other services including Amazon EBS and Amazon EC2. On S3 there is
no risk of over-provisioning and no need to manage disk utilization.
Question: 96
A database specialist needs to review and optimize an Amazon DynamoDB table that is experiencing performance issues. A thorough investigation by the database
specialist reveals that the partition key is causing hot partitions, so a new partition key is created. The database specialist must effectively apply this new partition key
to all existing and new data.
How can this solution be implemented?
A. Use Amazon EMR to export the data from the current DynamoDB table to Amazon S3. Then use Amazon EMR again to import the data from Amazon S3 into a
new DynamoDB table with the new partition key.
B. Use AWS DMS to copy the data from the current DynamoDB table to Amazon S3. Then import the DynamoDB table to create a new DynamoDB table with the
new partition key.
C. Use the AWS CLI to update the DynamoDB table and modify the partition key.
D. Use the AWS CLI to back up the DynamoDB table. Then use the restore-table-from-backup command and modify the partition key.
Answer: A

Question: 97
A company is going through a security audit. The audit team has identified cleartext master user password in the AWS CloudFormation templates for Amazon RDS for
MySQL DB instances. The audit team has flagged this as a security risk to the database team.
What should a database specialist do to mitigate this risk?
A. Change all the databases to use AWS IAM for authentication and remove all the cleartext passwords in CloudFormation templates.
B. Use an AWS Secrets Manager resource to generate a random password and reference the secret in the CloudFormation template.
C. Remove the passwords from the CloudFormation templates so Amazon RDS prompts for the password when the database is being created.
D. Remove the passwords from the CloudFormation template and store them in a separate file.
Replace the passwords by running CloudFormation using a sed command.
Answer: B

Question: 98
A companyâs database specialist disabled TLS on an Amazon DocumentDB cluster to perform benchmarking tests. A few days after this change was implemented, a
database specialist trainee accidentally deleted multiple tables. The database specialist restored the database from available snapshots. An hour after restoring the
cluster, the database specialist is still unable to connect to the new cluster endpoint.
What should the database specialist do to connect to the new, restored Amazon DocumentDB cluster?
A. Change the restored clusterâs parameter group to the original clusterâs custom parameter group.
B. Change the restored clusterâs parameter group to the Amazon DocumentDB default parameter group.
C. Configure the interface VPC endpoint and associate the new Amazon DocumentDB cluster.
D. Run the syncInstances command in AWS DataSync.
Answer: A
Explanation:
You can't modify the parameter settings of the default parameter groups. You can use a DB parameter group to act as a container for engine configuration values that
are applied to one or more DB instances. If you create a DB instance without specifying a DB parameter group, the DB instance uses a default DB parameter group.
Each default DB parameter group contains database engine defaults and Amazon RDS system defaults. You can't modify the parameter settings of a default parameter
group. Instead, you create your own parameter group where you choose your own parameter settings. Not all DB engine parameters can be changed in a parameter
group that you create.
Question: 99
A company runs a customer relationship management (CRM) system that is hosted on-premises with a MySQL database as the backend. A custom stored procedure is
used to send email notifications to another system when data is inserted into a table. The company has noticed that the performance of the CRM system has decreased
due to database reporting applications used by various teams. The company requires an AWS solution that would reduce maintenance, improve performance, and
accommodate the email notification feature.
Which AWS solution meets these requirements?
A. Use MySQL running on an Amazon EC2 instance with Auto Scaling to accommodate the reporting applications. Configure a stored procedure and an AWS Lambda
function that uses Amazon SES to send email notifications to the other system.
B. Use Amazon Aurora MySQL in a multi-master cluster to accommodate the reporting applications. Configure Amazon RDS event subscriptions to publish a message
to an Amazon SNS topic and subscribe the other system's email address to the topic.
C. Use MySQL running on an Amazon EC2 instance with a read replica to accommodate the reporting applications. Configure Amazon SES integration to send email
notifications to the other system.
D. Use Amazon Aurora MySQL with a read replica for the reporting applications. Configure a stored procedure and an AWS Lambda function to publish a message to
an Amazon SNS topic. Subscribe the other system's email address to the topic.
Answer: D
Explanation:
RDS event subscriptions do not cover "data is inserted into a table" - see
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/USER_Events.Messages.html We can use stored procedure to invoke Lambda function -

A company needs to migrate Oracle Database Standard Edition running on an Amazon EC2 instance to an Amazon RDS for Oracle DB instance with Multi-AZ. The
database supports an ecommerce website that runs continuously. The company can only provide a maintenance window of up to 5 minutes.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A. Configure Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) on the EC2 instance and the RDS DB instance. Update the connection string to point to the RAC cluster. Once
the EC2 instance and RDS DB instance are in sync, fail over from Amazon EC2 to Amazon RD
B. Export the Oracle database from the EC2 instance using Oracle Data Pump and perform an import into Amazon RD
C. Stop the application for the entire process. When the import is complete, change the
database connection string and then restart the application.
D. Configure AWS DMS with the EC2 instance as the source and the RDS DB instance as the destination. Stop the application when the replication is in sync, change
the database connection string, and then restart the application.
E. Configure AWS DataSync with the EC2 instance as the source and the RDS DB instance as the destination. Stop the application when the replication is in sync,
change the database connection string, and then restart the application.
