Exam AWS Certified Developer Associate topic 1 question 32 discussion

A + B is correct

A and B are identical and both are valid

A and E is correct

B) Correct - sam package: This command packages your AWS SAM application by uploading local Lambda function code and dependencies to Amazon S3 and generating an updated AWS CloudFormation template. sam deploy: This command deploys the AWS SAM application using the generated CloudFormation template. It automatically handles the process of deploying the serverless application to AWS, including Lambda functions, API Gateway, and other resources defined in the template.

sam package sam deploy - aws cloudformation package aws cloudformation deploy

A and B are hundred percent correct. We can use SAM client to build our application in local and create a standard template. Once the template is ready, we need first to package it (this will create a CloudFormation template in S3 with resource) and then deploy it (this will run all the configurations in the CloudFormation and will create the resources on the cloud). We can do that by using sam or aws cloud formation: - sam package sam deploy - aws cloudformation package aws cloudformation deploy Are both valid commands (A and B).

Both options A and B allow the developer to use an existing AWS SAM template to create a deployment package and deploy it using either the AWS CLI or the SAM CLI.

A + E makes more sense to me

The correct options are: B. Call sam package to create the deployment package. Call sam deploy to deploy the package afterward. E. Create a ZIP package and upload it to Amazon S3. Call aws cloudformation create-stack to create the application. Explanation: AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) is a framework for building serverless applications. It uses AWS CloudFormation to define the infrastructure as code and provides shorthand syntax to simplify the definition of AWS resources. To deploy a serverless application with AWS SAM, you can use the following steps: Package the AWS SAM application using the sam package command. This command will package the source code and its dependencies into a deployment package and upload it to an Amazon S3 bucket. Deploy the AWS SAM application using the sam deploy command. This command will create or update the CloudFormation stack that represents your application and its resources.

Certainly A,B

AB is the one

AAABBB

not sure about E but B is correct because, The sam package command zips your code artifacts, uploads them to Amazon S3, and produces a packaged AWS SAM template file that's ready to be used. The sam deploy command uses this file to deploy your application. To deploy an application that contains one or more nested applications, you must include the CAPABILITY_AUTO_EXPAND capability in the sam deploy command. Hence, the correct answers in this scenario are: - sam package - sam deploy aws cloudformation deploy is incorrect because this is primarily used for deploying a CloudFormation template file and not a SAM template file. aws cloudformation package is incorrect because this would be more suitable if you're dealing with an AWS CloudFormation template. Since it was mentioned in the scenario that a serverless application is being developed, SAM would be a better fit for packaging the application's code and dependencies.

By elimination, I don't see any automation in C, D & E

sam package creates .zip and uploads to s3 https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/sam-cli-command-reference-sam-package.html

SAM is just an extension of CloudFormation, operationally it's similar to CF.
