SAP-C02 Question 601

Single answer

An organization wants to centralize access management for multiple AWS accounts and applications, including third-party services. They require users to authenticate with their corporate Active Directory (AD) credentials. Additionally, they want to assign permissions to users based on their roles within the organization. Which AWS service or combination of services should you recommend?

  1. A

    AWS IAM Identity Center (successor to AWS SSO)

  2. B

    AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory

  3. C

    Amazon Cognito

  4. D

    AWS IAM Roles

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

AWS IAM Identity Center is the best solution because it enables centralized management of user access across multiple AWS accounts and applications, supports integration with corporate AD for authentication, and allows assigning permissions based on roles. While other services like AWS Directory Service or Amazon Cognito provide specific capabilities, they do not fulfill the organization's complete requirements for centralized access management and AD integration.

  • A. Correct.

    AWS IAM Identity Center (successor to AWS SSO) is the correct choice because it provides centralized access management for multiple AWS accounts and supports integration with corporate Active Directory (AD) for user authentication. It also allows assigning permissions based on roles.

  • B. Incorrect.

    AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory is used to set up a managed AD in AWS or integrate with an on-premises AD but does not directly provide centralized access management for multiple AWS accounts and applications.

  • C. Incorrect.

    Amazon Cognito is primarily used for user sign-up, sign-in, and access control for applications, but it is not designed for centralized management of multiple AWS accounts or integration with corporate AD.

  • D. Incorrect.

    AWS IAM Roles provide permissions for AWS services but do not address the need for centralized user access management or integration with corporate AD.

SAP-C02 Question 602

Single answer

Your organization has recently migrated to AWS and wants to centralize user authentication and authorization across multiple AWS accounts. The organization already uses Microsoft Active Directory (AD) on-premises for managing user identities. They also want to enable users to log in to the AWS Management Console using their existing AD credentials. Which solution will best meet these requirements?

  1. A

    Use AWS IAM Identity Center (AWS SSO) integrated with the on-premises Active Directory through AD Connector.

  2. B

    Enable AWS Directory Service Simple AD and synchronize it with the on-premises Active Directory for user authentication.

  3. C

    Set up AWS IAM roles in each account and create IAM users for each individual to match the on-premises AD users.

  4. D

    Deploy AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory (AWS Managed Microsoft AD) and establish a trust relationship with the on-premises Active Directory.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

To centralize authentication and authorization for multiple AWS accounts while leveraging existing on-premises Active Directory credentials, the best approach is to use AWS Managed Microsoft AD and establish a trust relationship with the on-premises AD. This setup allows users to authenticate using their existing AD credentials and provides centralized identity management suitable for multi-account environments.

  • A. Incorrect.

    This is incorrect because AWS IAM Identity Center (AWS SSO) does not directly integrate with on-premises Active Directory through AD Connector. Instead, AWS SSO integrates with AD through AWS Managed Microsoft AD or other identity providers.

  • B. Incorrect.

    This is incorrect because AWS Directory Service Simple AD does not support advanced Active Directory features like trust relationships or synchronization with on-premises Active Directory.

  • C. Incorrect.

    This is incorrect because managing individual IAM users for an entire organization is not scalable or secure for centralizing identity management across multiple accounts.

  • D. Correct.

    This is correct because AWS Managed Microsoft AD allows you to establish a trust relationship with your on-premises Active Directory, enabling seamless integration and the ability for users to authenticate using their existing credentials.

SAP-C02 Question 603

Select 2

A company is migrating their on-premises Oracle database to Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL. The Oracle database uses custom PL/SQL code for stored procedures, and the company wants to minimize downtime during the migration. Which combination of actions will help achieve this requirement?

  1. A

    Use AWS Schema Conversion Tool (AWS SCT) to analyze the Oracle database schema and convert the database schema and PL/SQL code to Aurora PostgreSQL-compatible formats.

  2. B

    Use AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) in full load plus change data capture (CDC) mode to migrate the data from the Oracle database to Aurora PostgreSQL with minimal downtime.

  3. C

    Manually rewrite the PL/SQL code from the Oracle database to be compatible with Aurora PostgreSQL before using AWS DMS to migrate the data.

  4. D

    Use AWS DMS to automatically convert the Oracle database schema and PL/SQL code to Aurora PostgreSQL-compatible formats during the data migration.

  5. E

    Deploy an Aurora Read Replica during the migration process to ensure high availability.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answers: A, B

Explanation

Migrating an on-premises Oracle database to Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL involves two key steps: schema conversion and data migration. AWS SCT is the appropriate tool for converting the Oracle database schema and PL/SQL code to formats compatible with Aurora PostgreSQL. AWS DMS can then be used to migrate the data with minimal downtime by enabling full load plus CDC mode. This combination of tools ensures a smooth migration process while meeting the company's requirement to minimize downtime.

  • A. Correct.

    This is correct. AWS SCT is used to analyze and convert the database schema and associated code, such as PL/SQL, to a format compatible with the target database engine.

  • B. Correct.

    This is correct. AWS DMS in full load plus CDC mode ensures minimal downtime by continuously replicating changes from the source database to the target database during migration.

  • C. Incorrect.

    This is incorrect. Manually rewriting PL/SQL code is time-consuming and error-prone. AWS SCT is specifically designed to handle such conversions automatically.

  • D. Incorrect.

    This is incorrect. AWS DMS does not convert database schemas or PL/SQL code. Schema and code conversion must be performed using AWS SCT or other tools before data migration.

  • E. Incorrect.

    This is incorrect. Aurora Read Replicas are not relevant to the migration process and are instead used for scaling read operations and ensuring high availability for an existing Aurora database.
