Question 390
A professional architect is reviewing two independent workstreams. Requirement A: A corporate SOC needs one prioritized security findings view across enabled security services and Regions. Requirement B: A customer-facing Lambda API has unacceptable first-request latency after inactive periods despite low average invocation cost. Which TWO architecture changes cover both acceptance criteria?
Explanation
Correct Answers
This action meets the independently stated requirement A: A corporate SOC needs one prioritized security findings view across enabled security services and Regions. Security Hub consolidates security posture and findings from participating services. A direct acceptance check is: Security Hub centrally displays eligible standardized findings with source context preserved.
This action meets the independently stated requirement B: A customer-facing Lambda API has unacceptable first-request latency after inactive periods despite low average invocation cost. Lambda provisioned concurrency keeps selected execution environments initialized to reduce startup latency. A direct acceptance check is: Cold-start spikes fall for provisioned requests and concurrency utilization stays within budget.
Incorrect Answers
This action targets a different technical need: A company wants to identify IAM permissions that have not been used recently before removing high-risk privileges. It does not replace either required solution in A or B. Last-accessed data informs least-privilege reviews but does not prove a permission is universally unnecessary; verify the two stated requirements independently rather than accepting an unrelated change.
State machines improve auditability when state transitions and idempotency are designed. The two requirements instead call for these controls: (A) Enable Security Hub delegated administration and finding aggregation for the target accounts and Regions; (B) Configure provisioned concurrency for selected published function aliases with suitable demand planning.
This action targets a different technical need: A global media site sends repeated uncached misses to an expensive origin even with widespread CloudFront edge caches. It does not replace either required solution in A or B. CloudFront Origin Shield can consolidate cache misses through an additional regional layer; verify the two stated requirements independently rather than accepting an unrelated change.
