Q

These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework

  • Perform Infrastructure as a code
  • Annotate documentation - automate the creation of annotated documentation after every build
  • Frequent, small, reversible changes - in case of failures, you can reverse
  • Refine operations procedures frequently - ensure team members are familiar with them
  • Anticipate failure
  • Learn from all operational failures

Q

These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework

  • Implement a strong identify foundation - centralize privilege mgmt and reduce (or even eliminate) reliance on long-term credentials. Principle of leave privilege - IAM
  • enable traceability - integrate logs and metrics with systems to automatically respond and take action
  • apply security at all layers - like edge network, VPC, subnet, load balancer, every instance, operating system, and application
  • automate security best practices
  • protect data in transit and at rest - encryption, tokenization, and access control
  • Keep people away from data - reduce or eliminate the need for direct access or manual processing of data
  • Prepare for security events - run incident response simulations and use tools with automation to increase your speed for detection, investigation, and recovery

Q

These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework

  • Test recovery procedures - use automation to stimulate different failures or to recreate scenarios that led to failures before
  • automatically recover from failure - anticipate and remediate failures before they occur
  • scale horizontally to increase aggregate system availability - distribute requests across multiple, smaller resources to ensure that they don’t share a common point of failure
  • stop guessing capacity - maintain the optimal level to satisfy demand without over or under provisioning - use auto scaling
    manage change in automation - use automation to make changes to infrastructure

Q

These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework

  • democratize advanced technologies - advance technologies become services and hence you can focus more on product development
  • go global in minutes - easy deployment in multiple regions
  • use serverless architectures - avoid burden of managing servers
  • experiment more often - easy to carry out comparative testing
  • mechanical sympathy - be aware of all AWS services

Q

These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework

  • adopt a consumption mode - pay only for what you use
  • measure overall efficiency - use CloudWatch
  • stop spending money on data center operations - AWS does the infrastructure part and enables customer to focus on organization projects
  • analyze and attribute expenditure - accurate identification of system usage and costs, helps measure return on investment (ROI). Make sure to use tags.
  • use managed and application level services to reduce cost of ownership - as managed services operate at cloud scale, they can offer a lower cost per transaction or service

17
Q

These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework

  • understand your impact - establish performance indicators, evaluate improvements
  • establish sustainability goals - set long-term goals for each workload, model return on investment (ROI)
  • anticipate and adopt new, more efficient hardware and software offerings - and design for flexibility to adopt new technologies over time
  • user managed services - shared services reduce the amount of infrastructure; managed services help automate sustainability best practices as moving infrequent accessed data to cold storage and adjusting compute capacity
  • reduce the downstream impact of your cloud workloads - reduce the amount of energy or resources required to use your services and reduce the need for your customers to upgrade their devices
