The correct answer is C. Create a custom AWS Config rule to monitor the provisioned IOPS for the EBS volumes that are. AWS Config allows for creation of custom rules to monitor EBS configurations. Combined with CloudWatch metrics and Amazon SNS, custom rules can track over-provisioned IOPS and send alerts when thresholds are breached, allowing proactive cost and performance management.
Question
A media company runs an application on multiple Amazon EC2 instances that requires high storage input/output operations per second (IOPS). To achieve the necessary performance, a solutions architect wants to stripe multiple Amazon EBS volumes together and attach the volumes to EC2 instances. The solutions architect wants to receive a notification when IOPS are over-provisioned. Which solution will meet these requirements?
Options
- AConfigure auto scaling for the EBS volumes to automatically increase or decrease IOPS based on
- BDeploy the application on an EC2 instance type that supports the highest possible IOPS.
- CCreate a custom AWS Config rule to monitor the provisioned IOPS for the EBS volumes that are
- DAdjust the IOPS of each EBS volume daily based on Amazon CloudWatch metrics for IOPS
