    Purchase zonal Reserved Instances (RIs) for the existing instances. Monitor the RI utilization in the AWS Billing and Cost Management console. Make adjustments to instance sizes to optimize utilization.
  3. C
    Review and take action on AWS Compute Optimizer recommendations. Purchase Compute Savings Plans to reduce the cost that is required to run the compute resources.
  4. D
    Review resource utilization metrics in the AWS Cost and Usage Report. Rightsize the EC2 instances. Create On-Demand Capacity Reservations for the rightsized resources.

  1. A
    Create a separate AWS CloudFormation template for the EC2 instance.
  2. B
    Modify the AWS CloudFormation template to not specify an Availability Zone for the EC2 instance.
  3. C
    Modify the AWS CloudFormation template to use a different EC2 instance type.
  4. D
    Use a different Amazon Machine Image (AMI) for the EC2 instance.
  5. E
    Use the AWS CLI's validate-template command before creating a stack from the template.

Correct Answer:

  1. A
    Create a primary failover routing policy record. Configure the value to be the ALB.
  2. B
    Create an AWS Lambda function to switch from the primary website to the secondary website when the health check fails.
  3. C
    Create a primary failover routing policy record. Configure the value to be the ALB. Associate the record with a Route 53 health check.
  4. D
    Create a secondary failover routing policy record. Configure the value to be the static website. Associate the record with a Route 53 health check.
  5. E
    Create a secondary failover routing policy record. Configure the value to be the static website.

Correct Answer:
