SAP-C02 Question #322: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

A company has a multi-tier web application that runs on a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The instances are in an Auto Scaling group. The ALB and the Auto Scaling group are replicated in a backup AWS Region. The minimum value and the maximum value for the Auto Scaling group are set to zero. An Amazon RDS Multi-AZ DB instance stores the application's data. The DB instance has a read replica in the backup Region. The application presents an endpoint to end users by using an Amazon Route 53 record. The company needs to reduce its RTO to less than 15 minutes by giving the application the ability to automatically fail over to the backup Region. The company does not have a large enough budget for an active-active strategy. What should a solutions architect recommend to meet these requirements?

Options

• AReconfigure the application's Route 53 record with a latency-based routing policy that load
• BCreate an AWS Lambda function in the backup Region to promote the read replica and modify
• CConfigure the Auto Scaling group in the backup Region to have the same values as the Auto
• DConfigure an endpoint in AWS Global Accelerator with the two ALBs as equal weighted targets.
