CLF-C02 Cloud Architecture & Deployment Principles 2

Question 1

A startup wants to ensure their application remains available even if an entire AWS data center fails. Which architectural approach best achieves this?

Accepted Answer

Deploy across multiple Availability Zones

Deploying across multiple Availability Zones protects against data center-level failures since each AZ is a physically separate facility.

Question 2

Which AWS Well-Architected Framework pillar focuses on protecting information, systems, and assets while delivering business value?

Accepted Answer

Security

Answer

The Security pillar covers protecting data, systems, and assets through risk assessments and mitigation strategies.

Question 3

An e-commerce company expects 10x normal traffic during a holiday sale. Which cloud principle allows their infrastructure to handle this spike cost-effectively?

Accepted Answer

Elasticity

Answer

Elasticity allows infrastructure to automatically scale out to handle peak demand and scale in when demand decreases, optimizing cost.

Question 4

What does the principle of 'design for failure' mean in AWS cloud architecture?

Accepted Answer

Assuming components will fail and building systems that continue operating

Answer

Designing for failure means assuming any component can fail at any time and architecting systems to continue functioning despite those failures.

Question 5

A company needs to deploy identical infrastructure across development, staging, and production environments. Which approach aligns with cloud best practices?

Accepted Answer

Use infrastructure as code templates like AWS CloudFormation

Answer

Infrastructure as code using CloudFormation ensures consistent, repeatable deployments across environments and reduces configuration drift.
