02 Designing Your Environment

1. AWS recommends using ___ public and ____ private subnets per Availability
Zone
1/1
2. A CIDR notation of /20 includes a set of 4,096 IPs. How many IPs does /22
include?
1,024
3. Which of the following are true about VPC peering? (Select 3)
VPCs cannot transitively connect to VPCs they are not peered with through a
VPC they are peered with.
Peered VPCs must reside in the same region.
The IP space of peered VPCs cannot overload.
4. A customer is using AWS to host development, testing, and production of one
small application that is managed by one IT team that consists of three
members. The application handles highly sensitive data and needs to store it in
several different countries. What type of solution do you recommend they use?
Multi-Account, isolating data with accounts
5. Why are fewer subnets of larger sizes preferred over higher numbers of
subnets of smaller sizes? (Select 2)
Workload placement is simplified with fewer subnets.
You are less likely to run out of IP addresses with fewer subnets.
6. On AWS, a subnet with a /20 CIDR notation includes how many IP addresses
that are available for your use?
4,091
7. AWS recommends that if you are unsure exactly how many Availability Zones
to use, you should start with ____ per region?
2
8. Which of the following is true about choosing a region? (Select 2)
Your choice of region could significantly impact your sales.
Some regions do not provide you with the ability to use all AWS services.
9. Which of the following are true about route tables? (Select 3)
Each subnet in a VPC must be associated with a route table
Each VPC is given a route table by default when the VPC is created.
Route tables can be shared between subnets
10. Why would high-performance computing (HPC) not function best in a multi-
VPC or multi-account environment?
Multi-VPC and multi-account environments introduce additional latency, which
is negligible for the most applications but could slow HPC applications down
unnecessarily.
CCA 3.03 System Design for High Availability (Part I & II)

1. Simple routing with Amazon 53:

Distributes load based on fastest response times
Does not use health checks
2. What is a single point of failure?
A single security vulneberalib
Any place where your infrastructure

3. Static IP addresses designed to be moved between Amazon EC2 instances to

enable higher availability are knows as____.
Elastic IP addresses
4. RTO refers to ______, and RPO refers to __________.
How quickly your system must notify you of downtime/how quickly your
system must recover
How quickly
5. Enabling connection draining for your load balancer causes the load balancer to
______.
Change
Stop sending new request to the
Gradually reduce the available throughput of you load balancer unitl it reaches
zero and the load balancer is terminated.
Stop all
6. What connections use a virtual private gateway in an Amazon VPC instance?
(Select 2)
AWS Direct Connect
Hardware virtual private network (VPN)
7. What happens when an Amazon EC2 instance fails the Amazon ELB health
check?
The Amazon EC2
The ELB load balancer tells Auto Scaling to reboot the Amazon EC2 instance
8. Geolocation routing with Amazon 53 lets you direct traffic based on the __
where the request came from.
Continent
State
9. What is high availability?
Ensuring that your application 99
Ensuring that your application is never unavailable
10. How does an ELB load balancer connect to an Amazon VPC?
ELB load balancers connect to the subnets of your choice.
11. Simple routing with Amazon 53:
Distributes load to a single server.
12. What is a single point of failure?
Any single component in your infrastructure which, if it fails, would bring down
the entire application
13. Static IP addresses designed to be moved between Amazon EC2 instances to
enable higher availability are known as____.
Elastic IP addresses
14. RTO refers to _____, and RPO refers to _____.
How quickly your system must recover/how much data you can afford to lose.
15. Enabling connection draining for your load balancer cause the load balancer to
______.
Stop sending new request to the back-end instances when those instances are
de-registering or become unhealthy.
16. What connections use a virtual private gateway in an Amazon VPC instance?
(Select 2)
VPC peering
Hardware virtual private network (VPN)
Customer gateways
AWS Direct Connect
17. What happens when an Amazon EC2 instance fails the Amazon ELB health
check?
The ELB load balancer stops sending new requests to the Amazon EC2 instance
until it becomes healthy again.
18. Geolocation routing with Amazon 53 lets you direct traffic based on the ____
where the request came from.
All of the above.
19. What is high availability?
Ensuring that your application´s downtime is minimized as much as possible.
20. How does an ELB load balancer connect to an Amazon VPC?
ELB load balancers connect to the subnets of your choice

to _____.
Stop spending

(Select 2)
23. What happens when an Amazon EC2 instance fails the Amazon ELB health
check?
The amazon (store data)
24. What is high availability?
Ensuring that your application is never available
