Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 5 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03
Question #: 5
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 Questions]

A company is hosting a web application on AWS using a single Amazon EC2 instance that stores user-uploaded documents in an Amazon EBS volume. For better scalability and availability, the company duplicated the architecture and created a second EC2 instance and EBS volume in another Availability Zone, placing both behind an Application Load Balancer. After completing this change, users reported that, each time they refreshed the website, they could see one subset of their documents or the other, but never all of the documents at the same time.
What should a solutions architect propose to ensure users see all of their documents at once?

  • A. Copy the data so both EBS volumes contain all the documents
  • B. Configure the Application Load Balancer to direct a user to the server with the documents
  • C. Copy the data from both EBS volumes to Amazon EFS. Modify the application to save new documents to Amazon EFS
  • D. Configure the Application Load Balancer to send the request to both servers. Return each document from the correct server

And just for clarification to others, you can have COPIES of the same EBS volume in one AZ and in another via EBS Snapshots, but don't confuse that with the idea of having some sort of global capability that has concurrent copying mechanisms.

using Amazon EFS to provide a shared storage solution ensures that both EC2 instances can access the same documents, which resolves the issue of users seeing different subsets of documents depending on which instance they are connected to.

C is Correct whereas the purpose of Amazon EFS is to provide a scalable, shared, and fully managed file storage solution that seamlessly integrates with AWS services and meets the performance, availability, and durability requirements of modern applications.

The alternative is to use Aurora or DynamoDB with master-slave replication, otherwise EFS is the most logical.

EBS volumes must be in the same AZ as the instances they are attached to. So you cannot share an EBS across AZs. Unless you plan to have two separate volumes in each AZ, the simpliest solution is to use EFS as a shared file system that can be used across both AZs

Correct EBS can be used for one Az if you need the a solution which could be accessed across a AZ then go for File storage which is a regional service

Copy the data from both EBS volumes to Amazon EFS. Modify the application to save new documents to Amazon EFS: Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) provides a simple, scalable, elastic file storage for use with AWS Cloud services and on-premises resources. It is designed to scale on demand to petabytes without disrupting applications, growing and shrinking automatically as files are added and removed. By moving the documents to EFS, both EC2 instances can access all the documents at the same time, resolving the issue.

Keyword "stores user-uploaded documents". Two EC2 instances behind Application Load Balancer. See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/efs/latest/ug/how-it-works.html#efs-regional-ec2 . In the diagram, Per Amazon EC2 in a different Availability zone, and Amazon Elastic File System support this case.
