Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 879 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03
Question #: 879
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 Questions]

A company runs an ecommerce application on AWS. Amazon EC2 instances process purchases and store the purchase details in an Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL DB cluster.

Customers are experiencing application timeouts during times of peak usage. A solutions architect needs to rearchitect the application so that the application can scale to meet peak usage demands.

Which combination of actions will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively? (Choose two.)

  • A. Configure an Auto Scaling group of new EC2 instances to retry the purchases until the processing is complete. Update the applications to connect to the DB cluster by using Amazon RDS Proxy.
  • B. Configure the application to use an Amazon ElastiCache cluster in front of the Aurora PostgreSQL DB cluster.
  • C. Update the application to send the purchase requests to an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue. Configure an Auto Scaling group of new EC2 instances that read from the SQS queue.
  • D. Configure an AWS Lambda function to retry the ticket purchases until the processing is complete.
  • E. Configure an Amazon AP! Gateway REST API with a usage plan.

A) uses RDS Proxy which is mainly for connection pooling and availability issues. Proxy is for too many connections(, not for performance: read replicas, caching) B is caching which is designed for solving read-issues. (Here we have timeouts, and connection issues.) C: SQS is good method for decoupling.

BC. Not idea why retry helps in this scenario besides it adds more complexity into the current design and also doesn't resolve the avalibility issue...

A - simply pointless. B- You're already using SQS (C), so why using ec2 to "retry the purchase"? They will stay in the queue until the purchase is processed. Otherwise, they will simply return to the queue. C - This decouples the application from direct database calls, allowing the processing of purchase requests to scale independently and manage load more effectively.
