Exam AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate topic 1 question 210 discussion

A company has an application that is deployed to two AWS Regions in an active-passive configuration. The application runs on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) in each Region. The instances are in an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group in each Region. The application uses an Amazon Route 53 hosted zone for DNS. A SysOps administrator needs to configure automatic failover to the secondary Region.

What should the SysOps administrator do to meet these requirements?

  • A. Configure Route 53 alias records that point to each ALB. Choose a failover routing policy. Set Evaluate Target Health to Yes.
  • B. Configure CNAME records that point to each ALChoose a failover routing policy. Set Evaluate Target Health to Yes.
  • C. Configure Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) health checks for the Auto Scaling group. Add a target group to the ALB in the primary Region. Include the EC2 instances in the secondary Region as targets.
  • D. Configure EC2 health checks for the Auto Scaling group. Add a target group to the ALB in the primary Region. Include the EC2 instances in the secondary Region as targets.

C C. Store the data in S3 Standard for the first 90 days. Set up an S3 Lifecycle rule to move the data to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval after 90 days. Explanation: First 90 Days: S3 Standard provides high availability and low latency, which meets the requirement of providing access to the data in milliseconds during the first 90 days when the data is infrequently accessed but must remain highly available. After 90 Days: S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval is a cost-effective storage class designed for long-term data archiving with retrieval times typically within a few hours, meeting the requirement of retrieval time under 5 hours. This option provides a significant cost saving compared to S3 Standard while still ensuring that data can be retrieved relatively quickly.

To configure automatic failover to the secondary Region for an application that is deployed to two AWS Regions in an active-passive configuration, the following steps should be taken: Configure Route 53 alias records that point to each ALB in the two Regions. Choose a failover routing policy, such as Failover or Geolocation. Set Evaluate Target Health to Yes to ensure that Route 53 only responds to DNS queries with healthy ALB endpoints.

Active / Standby = one region active at a time. Health checks and Route53.

I believe it's Active/Active unless app in one region is inaccessible for whatever reason. If that happens, Route 53 directs all user traffic to the running region. Yes, access may be slower for some users, but slower is beater than dead in the water.
