A company has an on-premises monitoring solution using a PostgreSQL database for persistence of events. The database is unable to scale due to heavy ingestion and it frequently runs out of storage. The company wants to create a hybrid solution and has already set up a VPN connection between its network and AWS. The solution should include the following attributes:1.Managed AWS services to minimize operational complexity. 2.A buffer that automatically scales to match the throughput of data and requires no ongoing administration. 3.A visualization tool to create dashboards to observe events in near-real time. 4.Support for semi-structured JSON data and dynamic schemas. Which combination of components will enable the company to create a monitoring solution that will satisfy these requirements? (Select TWO.)

A solutions architect needs to advise a company on how to migrate its on-premises data processing application to the AWS Cloud. Currently, users upload input files through a portal. The web server then stores the uploaded tiles on NAS and messages the processing server over a message queue. Each media file can lake up to 1 hour to process. The company has determined that the number of media files awaiting processing is significantly higher during business hours, with the number of files rapidly declining after business hours. What is the MOST cost-effective migration recommendation?

A weather service provides high-resolution weather maps from a web application hosted on AWS in the eu- west-1 Region. The weather maps are updated frequently and stored in Amazon S3 along with static HTML content. The web application is fronted by Amazon CloudFront. The company recently expanded to serve users in the us-east Region and these new users report that viewing their respective weather maps is slow from time to time. Which combination of slops will resolve the us-east performance issues? (Select TWO)

A company is using AWS CloudFormation to deploy its infrastructure. The company is concerned that, if a production CloudFormation stack is deleted, important data stored in Amazon RDS databases or Amazon EBS volumes might also be deleted.

A life Sciences company is using a combination of open source tools to manage data analysis workflows and Docker containers running on servers in its on-premises data to process genemics dat a. Sequencing data is generated and stored on a local storage area network (SAN) and then the data is processed. The research and development teams are running into capacity issues and have decided to re-architect their genomics analysis platform on AWS to scale based on workload demands and reduce the turn around time from weeks to days. The company has a high-speed AWS Direct Connect connection Sequencers will generate around 200 GB of data for each genome, and individual hours to process the daa with ideal compute capacity. The end result will be stored in Amazon S3. The company is expecting 10-15 job requests each day. Which solution meets these requirements?

A financial services company receives a regular data feed from its credit card servicing partner Approximately 5 000 records are sent every 15 minutes in plaintext delivered over HTTPS directly into an Amazon S3 bucket with server-side encryption This feed contains sensitive credit card primary account number (PAN) data The company needs to automatically mask the PAN before sending the data to another S3 bucket for additional internal processing The company also needs to remove and merge specific fields and then transform the record into JSON format Additionally extra feeds are likely to be added in the future so any design needs to be easily expandable. Which solutions will meet these requirements?
