Q

A law firm has an internal tablet/mobile application used by employees to download large word documents in their devices for offline review. These document’s size are in the range of 10-20 MB. The employees save the document in local device storage, edit it in offline mode and then use the feature in app to upload file to cloud storage. Most of the time users are expected to be in area of high mobile bandwidth of LTE or WIFI but some time they may be in area using a slow speed network (EDGE) or 3G with lots of fluctuations. The files are stored in AWS S3 buckets. What approach should the architect recommend for file upload in application?

  1. Use Single PUT operation to upload the files to S3
  2. Use Multipart upload to upload the files to S3
  3. Use Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration to upload the files
  4. Use Single POST operation to upload the files to S3

Suppose that you are a solution architect of a global company having regional headquarters in US-East, Ireland and Sydney. You have configured cross-region replication where bucket ‘myuseastbucket’ in ‘us-east-1’ US East (N. Virginia) region is the source and bucket ‘myeuwestbucket’ in ‘eu-west-1’ EU (Ireland) is the destination. Now you added another cross-region replication configuration where bucket ‘myeuwestbucket’ is the source and bucket ‘mysoutheastbucket’ in Asia Pacific (Sydney) ‘ap-southeast-2’ is the destination. You notice that file created in ‘myuseastbucket’ is getting replicated in ‘myeuwestbucket’ but not in ‘mysoutheastbucket’ ? What is the possible reason?

  1. You have not configured cross region replication for ‘myuseastbucket’ to mysoutheastbucket’
  2. Daisy Chain replication is not supported by S3.
  3. You have not called S3 support and get cross region replication to more than two destination.
  4. You have not given S3 permission to replicated objects to ‘mysoutheastbucket’

Q

How S3 evaluates request for a bucket operation requested by an IAM Principal whose parent AWS account is also the bucket owner? Principal: Jill

Jill’s Parent Account: 1111-1111-1111

In the user context Amazon S3 evaluates all policies that belongs to the parent AWS account to determine if Principal has permission to perform the operation.

  1. Amazon S3 evaluates the user context by reviewing the policies authored by the account to verify that Principal has the necessary permissions, then it evaluates the bucket context, to verify that bucket owner has granted Jill (or her parent AWS account) permission to perform the requested operation.
  2. Amazon S3 evaluates the user context by reviewing the policies authored by the account to verify that Principal has the necessary permissions, then it evaluates the bucket context, to verify that bucket owner has granted Jill (or her parent AWS account) permission to perform the requested operation and last object context evaluates the object ACL to determine if Jill has permission to access the objects in the bucket.
  3. Amazon S3 evaluates the bucket context, to verify that bucket owner has granted Jill (or her parent AWS account) permission to perform the requested operation and in object context evaluates the object ACL to determine if Jill has permission to access the objects in the bucket.

You are designing a business critical custom .Net application running on Windows server EC2 instance which access a files system created by Amazon FSx for windows server. You are provisioning EC2 instances in an auto-scale group across Multi AZs for availability and fault tolerance. How can you ensure high availability and durability of FSx file systems? Choose 3.

  1. Amazon FSx automatically replicates your data within an Availability Zone (AZ) to protect it from component failure, continuously monitors for hardware failures, and automatically replaces infrastructure components in the event of a failure.
  2. Create a Read Replica file system, which provides performance and redundancy across multiple AZs.
  3. Create a Multi-AZ file system, which provides redundancy across multiple AZs.
  4. Amazon FSx also takes highly durable backups (stored in S3) of your file system daily using Windows’s Volume Shadow Copy Service, and allows you to take additional backups at any point.
