Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional topic 1 question 973 discussion

A financial services company is operating a highly regulated workload on premises. The company is trying to modernize its monolithic core payments application by changing to a microservices-based architecture with containers. The company is waiting for regulatory approval to run this workload on AWS. In the meantime, the company wants to start deploying the containerized application on premises.

A solutions architect needs to design a solution that gives the company the ability to run and update existing and new workloads even if the company loses network connectivity to an AWS Region.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • A. Install AWS Systems Manager, Docker, and Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) agents on the company's managed infrastructure on premises. Register the on-premises servers or VMs with an Amazon ECS Anywhere cluster on AWS. Launch the workload's containers on the cluster.
  • B. Install Amazon EKS Distro on the company's managed infrastructure on premises. Register the on-premises servers or VMs with an Amazon EKS Anywhere cluster on AWS. Launch the workload's containers on the cluster.
  • C. Download and run the Amazon EKS Anywhere installer on the company's managed infrastructure on premises. Create an Amazon EKS Anywhere cluster on premises. Launch the workload's containers on the cluster.
  • D. Use the Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) control plane for an Amazon ECS Anywhere cluster. Install the ECS agent on the company's managed infrastructure on premises. Launch the workload's containers on the cluster.

Selected Answer: C
C is the correct option. ECS anywhere is ruled out because it requires a network connection between on-prem and AWS region. Correct option is EKS anywhere (c)

"design a solution that gives the company the ability to run and update existing and new workloads even if the company loses network connectivity to an AWS Region." C - EKS Anywhere can be run on-premises completely disconnected and/or air-gapped B - incorrect EKS Anywhere is not provisioned on AWS https://aws.amazon.com/eks/eks-anywhere/faqs/ A & D - incorrect. A loss of network activity will leave tasks running but no updates can be made. https://aws.amazon.com/ecs/anywhere/faqs/

Selected Answer: C
The answer is consistent with https://aws.amazon.com/eks/eks-anywhere/getting-started/ Also, it fulfills the requirement of network outage having no impact on the cluster - in the FAQ https://aws.amazon.com/eks/eks-anywhere/faqs/, we read: Q: Does EKS Anywhere require internet connectivity to an AWS region? In the case of partially disconnected clusters, there is no impact on your applications running on the clusters but since intermittent disconnects can last several hours, features like the EKS console in the AWS console will show the state from the time of disconnect, with eventual consistency restored once the connection returns.

ECS anywhere. EKS anywhere is for Kubernetes and i don't see any mention to Kubernetes in the question, i assume that company is using Docker (so ECS) for the microservices https://aws.amazon.com/ecs/anywhere/

Correct B. EKS-D is available to install and manage yourself. You can run EKS-D on-premises, in a cloud, or on your own systems. EKS-D provides a path to having essentially the same Amazon EKS Kubernetes distribution running wherever you need to run it. https://distro.eks.amazonaws.com/
