Q91

Which service is used for serverless computing on AWS?

  • A AWS Lambda
  • B Amazon EC2
  • C Amazon RDS
  • D AWS Elastic Beanstalk
Explanation AWS Lambda allows running code without provisioning servers, unlike EC2 or RDS which require server management.
Q92

A company needs to distribute web traffic to multiple instances efficiently. Which AWS service should they use?

  • A Amazon Route 53
  • B AWS CloudFormation
  • C AWS Elastic Load Balancing
  • D Amazon S3
Explanation AWS Elastic Load Balancing distributes traffic across multiple instances, whereas S3 is for storage and CloudFormation is for orchestration.
Q93

You are configuring an IAM policy to allow list access to all S3 buckets. What happens if you don't specify a resource?

  • A Access denied by default
  • B Access granted to all buckets
  • C Only default buckets accessible
  • D Policy gets ignored
Explanation Without specifying a resource in IAM, neither Deny nor Allow policies apply, resulting in access being denied by default.
Q94

Which service provides serverless compute for containers?

  • A AWS Lambda
  • B Amazon ECS
  • C AWS Fargate
  • D Amazon EC2
Explanation AWS Fargate allows you to run containers without managing servers, unlike the others.
Q95

A company needs to securely share S3 objects but only with specific users in their organization. Which S3 feature should they use?

  • A Bucket Policies
  • B ACLs
  • C S3 Object Lock
  • D IAM Roles
Explanation Bucket Policies can restrict access for specific IAM users, whereas the others don't limit access as needed.

  • C No inbound traffic is allowed
  • D Instances cannot connect to the internet

Q97

Which service provides event-driven serverless computing?

  • A AWS Lambda
  • B EC2

  • A New access key goes into a queue
  • B They can't create new access keys
  • C Old access keys are deleted automatically

Q100

Which service is primarily used for serverless computing?

  • A AWS Lambda
  • B Amazon EC2
  • C AWS Elastic Beanstalk
  • D Amazon RDS
Explanation AWS Lambda allows for running code without provisioning servers, while the others are not serverless solutions.
