Question #: 923
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 Questions]

A company hosts a monolithic web application on an Amazon EC2 instance. Application users have recently reported poor performance at specific times. Analysis of Amazon CloudWatch metrics shows that CPU utilization is 100% during the periods of poor performance.

The company wants to resolve this performance issue and improve application availability.

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

  • A. Use AWS Compute Optimizer to obtain a recommendation for an instance type to scale vertically.
  • B. Create an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) from the web server. Reference the AMI in a new launch template.
  • C. Create an Auto Scaling group and an Application Load Balancer to scale vertically.
  • D. Use AWS Compute Optimizer to obtain a recommendation for an instance type to scale horizontally.
  • E. Create an Auto Scaling group and an Application Load Balancer to scale horizontally.

Due to monolithic application we can't scale horizontal, the scale will be vertical

BE makes more sense to me. Vertical scaling increases cost continuously even when the instance is in low demand. for a long run, the cost would be higher than just scale horizontally. The questions says the 'poor performance at specific times', so we just need to scale up at specific times. Additionally, in order to scale up, we do need AMI and a launch template. Thus, a combination of B & E should be the correct answer

The answer is A and E. A for adding more CPU (Vertical scaling ) and E for adding more Servers (Horizontal scaling)

Selected Answer: AE
AWS Compute Optimizer analyzes your current EC2 instance usage and recommends the most cost-effective instance type. In this case, the current instance may not have enough CPU capacity, so scaling vertically (upgrading to a larger instance type) could provide immediate relief from the 100% CPU utilization.
