AWS Services Review Practice Exam Questions & Answers.
Amazon EC2 - CORRECT ANSWER Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that
... [Show More] provides resizeable computing capacity—literally, servers in Amazon's data centers—that you use to build and host your software systems.
Amazon ECR - CORRECT ANSWER Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) is a fully managed Docker container registry that makes it easy for developers to store, manage, and deploy Docker container images.
Amazon ECS - CORRECT ANSWER Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) is a highly scalable, fast, container management service that makes it easy to run, stop, and manage Docker containers on a cluster of Amazon EC2 instances.
Amazon Lightsail - CORRECT ANSWER Amazon Lightsail is the easiest way to get started with AWS for developers who just need virtual private servers. Lightsail includes everything you need to launch your project quickly - a virtual machine, SSD-based storage, data transfer, DNS management, and a static IP - for a low, predictable price.
Amazon VPC - CORRECT ANSWER Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) enables you to launch Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources into a virtual network that you've defined. This virtual network closely resembles a traditional network that you'd operate in your own data center, with the benefits of using the scalable infrastructure of AWS.
AWS Batch - CORRECT ANSWER AWS Batch enables you to run batch computing workloads on the AWS Cloud. Batch computing is a common way for developers, scientists, and engineers to access large amounts of compute resources. AWS Batch removes the undifferentiated heavy lifting of configuring and managing the required infrastructure.
AWS Elastic Beanstalk - CORRECT ANSWER With AWS Elastic Beanstalk, you can quickly deploy and manage applications in the AWS Cloud without worrying about the infrastructure that runs those applications. AWS Elastic Beanstalk reduces management complexity without restricting choice or control. You simply upload your application, and AWS Elastic Beanstalk automatically handles the details of capacity provisioning, load balancing, scaling, and application health monitoring.
AWS Lambda - CORRECT ANSWER With AWS Lambda, you can run code without provisioning or managing servers. You pay only for the compute time you consume—there's no charge when your code isn't running. You can run code for virtually any type of application or backend service—all with zero administration. Just upload your code and Lambda takes care of everything required to run and scale your code with high availability. You can set up your code to automatically trigger from other AWS services or call it directly from any web or mobile app.
AWS Serverless Application Repository - CORRECT ANSWER With AWS Serverless Application Repository, you can quickly find and deploy serverless applications in the AWS Cloud. You can browse applications by category, or search for them by name, publisher, or event source. To use an application, you simply select it, configure required fields, and deploy it with a few clicks.
As a serverless application developer, you can also easily publish applications, sharing them across teams and organizations and with other AWS users. To publish serverless applications, you can use the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or AWS SDKs to upload the code, along with a simple manifest file.
Amazon S3 - CORRECT ANSWER Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) is storage for the Internet. You can use Amazon S3 to store and retrieve any amount of data at any time, from anywhere on the web. You can accomplish these tasks using the simple and intuitive web interface of the AWS Management Console.
Amazon EBS - CORRECT ANSWER Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) provides block level storage volumes for use with EC2 instances. EBS volumes are highly available and reliable storage volumes that can be attached to any running instance that is in the same Availability Zone. EBS volumes that are attached to an EC2 instance are exposed as storage volumes that persist independently from the life of the instance. With Amazon EBS, you pay only for what you use. For more information about Amazon EBS pricing, see the Projecting Costs section of the Amazon Elastic Block Store page.
Amazon EBS is recommended when data must be quickly accessible and requires long-term persistence. EBS volumes are particularly well-suited for use as the primary storage for file systems, databases, or for any applications that require fine granular updates and access to raw, unformatted, block-level storage. Amazon EBS is well suited to both database-style applications that rely on random reads and writes, and to throughput-intensive applications that perform long, continuous reads and writes. [Show Less]
