https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/architecture/accelerating-your-migration-to-aws/ Build a business case with AWS Migration Evaluator The foundation for a successful migration starts with a defined business objective (for example, growth or new offerings). In order to enable the business drivers, the established business case must then be aligned to a technical capability (increased security and elasticity). AWS Migration Evaluator (formerly known as TSO Logic) can help you meet these objectives. To get started, you can choose to upload exports from third-party tools such as Configuration Management Database (CMDB) or install a collector agent to monitor. You will receive an assessment after data collection, which includes a projected cost estimate and savings of running your on-premises workloads in the AWS Cloud. This estimate will provide a summary of the projected costs to re-host on AWS based on usage patterns. It will show the breakdown of costs by infrastructure and software licenses. With this information, you can make the business case and plan next steps.

Comprehensive and Detailed in Depth Explanation:

A is correct because write throttling on DynamoDB means WCU (write capacity units) are insufficient. Increasing them will reduce the error rate.

D is correct because introducing Kinesis allows for efficient, high-throughput ingestion and batch processing, reducing the number of Lambda invocations and overall load.

The cost of EFS backup cold storage is $0.01 per GB-month, whereas the cost of EFS backup warm storage is $0.05 per GB-month1. Therefore, moving the backups to cold storage as soon as possible will reduce the storage cost. However, cold storage backupsmust be retained for a minimum of 90 days2, otherwise they incur a pro-rated charge equal to the storage charge for the remaining days1. Therefore, setting the backup retention period to 30 days will incur a penalty of 60 days of cold storage cost for each backup deleted. This penalty will still be lower than keeping the backups in warm storage for 7 days and then in cold storage for 83 days, which is the current configuration. Therefore, option A is the most cost-effective solution.

Adding an accelerator in AWS Global Accelerator will enable improving the performance of the APIs for local and global users1. AWS Global Accelerator is a service that uses the AWS global network to route traffic to the optimal regional endpoint based on health, client location, and policies1. Configuring the ALB as the origin will enable connecting the accelerator to the ALB that exposes the APIs2. AWS Global Accelerator supports non-standard REST methods such as LINK, UNLINK, LOCK, and UNLOCK3.

Identify Proxy EC2 Instances:

Determine which EC2 instances in the private subnets are running the proxy server software.

Disable Source/Destination Checks:

For each of these EC2 instances, go to the AWS Management Console.

Navigate to the EC2 dashboard, select the instance, and choose "Actions" > "Networking" > "Change Source/Dest.Check".

Disable the source/destination check for these instances.

Disabling source/destination checks allows the EC2 instances to route traffic appropriately, enabling them to function as network appliances or proxies. This ensures that traffic from other instances in the private subnets can be routed through the proxy instances to the internet, meeting the company's security requirements.

The company should purchase the same Reserved Instances for an additional 3-year term with All Upfront payment. The company should purchase a 3-year Compute Savings Plan with All Upfront payment in the management account to cover any additional compute costs. This solution will provide the company with the most cost savings because Reserved Instances and Savings Plans are both pricing models that offer significant discounts compared to On-Demand pricing. Reserved Instances are commitments to use a specific instance type and size in a single Region for a one- or three-year term. You can choose between three payment options: No Upfront, Partial Upfront, or All Upfront. The more you pay upfront, the greater the discount1. Savings Plans are flexible pricing models that offer low prices on EC2 instances, Fargate, and Lambda usage, in exchange for a commitment to a consistent amount of usage (measured in $/hour) for a one- or three-year term. You can choose between two types of Savings Plans: Compute Savings Plans and EC2 Instance Savings Plans. Compute Savings Plans apply to any EC2 instance regardless of Region, instance family, operating system, or tenancy, including those that are part of EMR, ECS, or EKS clusters, or launched by Fargate or Lambda. EC2 Instance Savings Plans apply to a specific instance family within a Region and provide the most savings2. By purchasing the same Reserved Instances for an additional 3-year term with All Upfront payment, the company can lock in the lowest possible price for its EC2 instances that run continuously for 3 years. By purchasing a 3-year Compute Savings Plan with All Upfront payment in the management account, the company can benefit from additional discounts on any other compute usage across its member accounts.

The other options are not correct because:

Purchasing a 1-year Compute Savings Plan with No Upfront payment in each member account would not provide as much cost savings as purchasing a 3-year Compute Savings Plan with All Upfront payment in the management account. A 1-year term offers lower discounts than a 3-year term, and a No Upfront payment option offers lower discounts than an All Upfront payment option. Also, purchasing a Savings Plan in each member account would not allow the company to share the benefits of unused Savings Plan discounts across its organization.

Purchasing a 3-year EC2 Instance Savings Plan with No Upfront payment in the management account to cover EC2 costs in each AWS Region would not provide as much cost savings as purchasing Reserved Instances for an additional 3-year term with All Upfront payment. An EC2 Instance Savings Plan offers lower discounts than Reserved Instances for the same instance family and Region. Also, a No Upfront payment option offers lower discounts than an All Upfront payment option.

Purchasing a 3-year EC2 Instance Savings Plan with All Upfront payment in each member account would not provide as much flexibility or cost savings as purchasing a 3-year Compute Savings Plan with All Upfront payment in the management account. An EC2 Instance Savings Plan applies only to a specific instance family within a Region and does not cover Fargate or Lambda usage. Also, purchasing aSavings Plan in each member account would not allow the company to share the benefits of unused Savings Plan discounts across its organization.

Using AWS IoT Core to receive the vehicle data will enable connecting the smart vehicles to the cloud using the MQTT protocol1. AWS IoT Core is a platform that enables you to connect devices to AWS Services and other devices, secure data and interactions, process and act upon device data, and enable applications to interact with devices even when they are offline2. Configuring rules to route data to an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream that stores the data in Amazon S3 will enable processing and storing the vehicle data in a scalable and reliable way3. Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose is a fully managed service that delivers real-time streaming data to destinations such as Amazon S3. Creating an Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics application that reads from the delivery stream to detect anomalies will enable analyzing the vehicle data using SQL queries or Apache Flink applications. Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics is a fully managed service that enables you to process and analyze streaming data using SQL or Java.

This option uses AWS DataSync to replicate the on-premises images to the EFS file system over the Direct Connect connection. AWS DataSync is a service that automates and accelerates data transfer between on-premises storage systems and AWS storage services. It can transfer data to and from Amazon EFS, Amazon FSx for Windows File Server, and Amazon S3. To use AWS DataSync, the company needs to deploy an AWS DataSync agent to an on-premises server that has access to the NFS file system. The agent connects to the AWS DataSync service endpoint in the AWS Region where the EFS file system is located. The company can use an AWS PrivateLink interface endpoint to connect to the service endpoint securely and privately over the Direct Connect connection. The company can then create a task in AWS DataSync that specifies the source location (the NFS file system), the destination location (the EFS file system), and the options for the data transfer (such as schedule, bandwidth limit, and verification). AWS DataSync will then perform the data transfer efficiently and securely, using encryption in transit and at rest.
