DOP-C02 Question 300
Select 2Your organization wants to implement an event-driven architecture to monitor AWS Health events and trigger automated incident workflows whenever a specific service disruption is detected. You need to ensure that events are captured, processed, and routed to an incident management system. Which combination of AWS services would best achieve this?
- A
Amazon EventBridge to capture AWS Health events and route them to a target
- B
AWS CloudTrail to log and monitor all AWS Health events
- C
AWS Lambda to process the event and invoke the incident management system
- D
Amazon CloudWatch to generate and capture AWS Health events
- E
AWS Systems Manager to trigger and execute the incident workflow
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C
Explanation
To implement an event-driven architecture for AWS Health events, Amazon EventBridge is used to capture and route the events, while AWS Lambda processes the events and executes custom logic, such as invoking an incident management system. AWS CloudTrail and CloudWatch are not suitable for capturing AWS Health events, and AWS Systems Manager is not involved in the event routing process.
- A. Correct.
Amazon EventBridge is the correct service to capture AWS Health events and route them to a target such as a Lambda function or other service, making it a key component of event-driven architectures.
- B. Incorrect.
AWS CloudTrail is designed for logging and auditing API activity and user actions across AWS, but it does not capture AWS Health events or trigger event-driven workflows.
- C. Correct.
AWS Lambda is a serverless compute service that can process events captured by EventBridge and execute custom logic, such as invoking an incident management system.
- D. Incorrect.
Amazon CloudWatch primarily focuses on metrics, logs, and alarms. It does not natively capture AWS Health events or route them to targets.
- E. Incorrect.
AWS Systems Manager is used for operational management tasks, such as running automation documents, but it is not responsible for capturing or routing AWS Health events.
