Module 6 Knowledge Check
Why is AWS more economical than traditional data centers for applications with varying compute workloads? - answer AWS is more economical than traditional data centers
with varying compute workloads because Amazon EC2 instances can be launched on-
demand.
If your project requires monthly reports that iterate through very large amounts of data, which Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) purchasing option should you consider? - answer Scheduled Reserved Instances
What is included in Amazon Machine Image (AMI) - answer All of the above
Which Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) feature ensures your instances will not share a physical host with instances from any other AWS customer? - answer Dedicated Instances
Which of the following services is a serverless compute service in AWS? - answer AWS Lambada is a compute service that lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers.
What is the service provided by AWS that enables developers to easily deploy and manage applications in the cloud? - answer Elastic Beanstalk is an AWS compute service option. It is a Platform as a Service (or PaaS) that facilitates quick deployment, scaling and managing of your web applications and services.
Your web application needs four instances to support steady traffic all of the time. On the last day of the month, the traffic triples. What is the most cost effective way to handle this pattern. - answer On Demand = Flexible Reserved = Consistent Number 3
Containers contain an entire operating system. - answer False. Containers are smaller than virtual machines, and do not contain an entire operating system.
Which Amazon EC2 option is best for long-term workloads with predictable usage patterns. - answer Reserved Instances
Which of the following must be specified when launching a new Amazon Elastic Compute Clouds (Amazon EC2) Windows instance. - answer AWS assigns the EC2 instance ID as part of the launch process and the administrator password, which is encrypted via the public key. The instance type defines the virtual hardware and the AMI defines the initial software state. Both must be specified on launch.
