,Section A - AWS Hybrid Cloud Architecture
Q1.
In the post-implementation report, which metric best demonstrates the hybrid cloud's cost
efficiency when comparing AWS Direct Connect vs. a VPN-based hybrid connection?
A. Total data transfer cost per GB over a B. Latency in milliseconds between
month on-premises and AWS
C. Percentage of network uptime D. Number of CloudFormation stacks
deployed
Correct: A - Total data transfer cost per GB over a month
Rationale:Cost efficiency is directly measured by data transfer costs; Direct Connect offers
lower per-GB costs for high-volume transfers compared to VPN. Latency and uptime are
performance metrics, not cost. Stack count is irrelevant.
Q2.
When integrating GNS3 with AWS for a hybrid cloud design, which approach ensures that
on-premises routing protocols propagate correctly into the VPC?
A. Using a VPN connection with static B. Deploying a virtual router instance in
routes only AWS that runs BGP with the on-premises
GNS3 routers
C. Configuring AWS Transit Gateway with D. Placing a NAT gateway in the VPC to
route tables and attaching VPCs handle routing
Correct: B - Deploying a virtual router instance in AWS that runs BGP with the
on-premises GNS3 routers
Rationale:Running a virtual router (e.g., Cisco Cloud Services Router) in AWS allows
dynamic routing protocols like BGP or OSPF to peer with GNS3 routers, enabling route
propagation. VPN with static routes lacks dynamic updates. Transit Gateway is not directly a
router for dynamic protocols. NAT gateway does not route between networks.
Q3.
You must design a CloudFormation template that creates a VPC with public and private
subnets across two Availability Zones, an internet gateway, and a NAT gateway. Which set
of resources and dependencies is correctly defined?
A. VPC, Subnet, InternetGateway, B. VPC, Subnet, InternetGateway,
AttachGateway, RouteTable, Route, NATGateway, RouteTable, Route with
NATGateway, EIP, RouteTableAssociation, DependsOn for NATGateway
with DependsOn for the gateway attachment

, Section A - AWS Hybrid Cloud Architecture
C. VPC, Subnet, InternetGateway, D. VPC, Subnet, InternetGateway,
RouteTable, Route, NATGateway, with AttachGateway, NATGateway, RouteTable,
DependsOn for Subnet Route, without DependsOn
Correct: A - VPC, Subnet, InternetGateway, AttachGateway, RouteTable, Route,
NATGateway, EIP, RouteTableAssociation, with DependsOn for the gateway attachment
Rationale:Proper CloudFormation requires VPC, subnets, IGW, and attachment (using
AttachGateway) to make the IGW usable. NAT gateway needs an EIP and must be in a public
subnet. Route tables and associations are needed. DependsOn ensures the IGW is attached
before routes are created. Option B misses AttachGateway, C misses EIP and
AttachGateway, D misses DependsOn which can cause race conditions.
Q4.
In the post-implementation report, which analysis technique best evaluates the security
posture of the hybrid cloud by comparing actual configurations to industry benchmarks?
A. Vulnerability scanning using AWS B. AWS Trusted Advisor checks for security
Inspector
C. Manual review of security group rules D. AWS Config rules with CIS AWS
Foundations Benchmark
Correct: D - AWS Config rules with CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark
Rationale:AWS Config rules can continuously evaluate configurations against CIS
benchmarks, providing automated compliance checks. Inspector focuses on vulnerabilities,
Trusted Advisor gives general checks, and manual review is error-prone. Config rules directly
map to benchmarks.
Q5.
When documenting the final architecture, which diagram type best represents the logical
flow of traffic from on-premises users through the hybrid cloud to the application tier?
A. Network topology diagram showing B. Data flow diagram (DFD) with processes
physical connections and data stores
C. Deployment diagram showing nodes and D. Sequence diagram showing interactions
artifacts over time
Correct: B - Data flow diagram (DFD) with processes and data stores
Rationale:A DFD focuses on the flow of data through processes, which is ideal for showing
traffic flow. Network topology shows physical/logical connections but not data flow.
Deployment diagram shows components, and sequence diagram shows time-based
interactions, not overall flow.
