DOP-C02 Question 266
Select 3You are a DevOps engineer managing a complex microservices architecture running on Amazon ECS. You need to ensure that monitoring and event management are automated to detect anomalies, alert the appropriate teams, and execute predefined remediation steps. Which combination of solutions achieves this effectively?
- A
Set up Amazon CloudWatch Alarms for key metrics and configure Amazon SNS to notify the operations team.
- B
Enable AWS Config rules to evaluate resource compliance and trigger AWS Lambda for remediation.
- C
Use AWS Systems Manager Automation documents (runbooks) integrated with Amazon EventBridge rules to handle specific events.
- D
Deploy AWS Trusted Advisor to monitor the architecture and automatically remediate issues.
- E
Implement Amazon QuickSight dashboards for real-time anomaly detection and automated alerts.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, C
Explanation
Automating monitoring and event management in complex environments requires a combination of solutions that can detect anomalies, notify the right teams, and execute remediation. Amazon CloudWatch Alarms with SNS ensures timely notifications, AWS Config rules with Lambda enable compliance checks and automated remediation, and Systems Manager Automation integrated with EventBridge rules provides a robust mechanism for handling specific events. Trusted Advisor and QuickSight, while useful for other purposes, do not fulfill the requirements for automated monitoring and event management in this scenario.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Amazon CloudWatch Alarms can monitor key metrics and, when integrated with Amazon SNS, can notify the appropriate team, making it a critical part of automated monitoring and event management.
- B. Correct.
Correct. AWS Config rules can be used to continuously evaluate the compliance of resources and enable automated remediation via AWS Lambda, which is essential for event management.
- C. Correct.
Correct. AWS Systems Manager Automation documents can define and execute predefined remediation actions when triggered by Amazon EventBridge rules, making them ideal for automating event responses.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. AWS Trusted Advisor provides recommendations for best practices but does not directly automate monitoring or event remediation.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Amazon QuickSight is a business intelligence tool and is not designed for real-time anomaly detection or automated alerts in the context of monitoring and event management.
