Q: 6
A CloudOps engineer has created a VPC that contains a public subnet and a private subnet. Amazon
EC2 instances that were launched in the private subnet cannot access the internet. The default

A multinational company uses an organization in AWS Organizations to manage over 200 member
accounts across multiple AWS Regions. The company must ensure that all AWS resources meet
specific security requirements.
The company must not deploy any EC2 instances in the ap-southeast-2 Region. The company must
completely block root user actions in all member accounts. The company must prevent any user from

Q: 9
A company uses an organization in AWS Organizations to manage multiple AWS accounts. The
company needs to send specific events from all the accounts in the organization to a new receiver
account, where an AWS Lambda function will process the events.
A CloudOps engineer configures Amazon EventBridge to route events to a target event bus in the us-
west-2 Region in the receiver account. The CloudOps engineer creates rules in both the sender and
receiver accounts that match the specified events. The rules do not specify an account parameter in
the event pattern. IAM roles are created in the sender accounts to allow PutEvents actions on the
target event bus.
However, the first test events from the us-east-1 Region are not processed by the Lambda function in
the receiving account.
What is the likely reason the events are not processed?

Q: 10
A company hosts a production MySQL database on an Amazon Aurora single-node DB cluster. The
database is queried heavily for reporting purposes. The DB cluster is experiencing periods of
performance degradation because of high CPU utilization and maximum connections errors. A
CloudOps engineer needs to improve the stability of the database.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
