Amazon DOP-C02 Exam - Topic 7 Question 39 Discussion

A company has configured Amazon RDS storage autoscaling for its RDS DB instances. A DevOps team needs to visualize the autoscaling events on an Amazon CloudWatch dashboard. Which solution will meet this requirement?
A) Create an Amazon EventBridge rule that reacts to RDS storage autoscaling events from RDS events. Create an AWS Lambda function that publishes a CloudWatch custom metric. Configure the EventBridge rule to invoke the Lambda function. Visualize the custom metric by using the CloudWatch dashboard.
B) Create a trail by using AWS CloudTrail with management events configured. Configure the trail to send the management events to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Create a metric filter in CloudWatch Logs to match the RDS storage autoscaling events. Visualize the metric filter by using the CloudWatch dashboard.
C) Create an Amazon EventBridge rule that reacts to RDS storage autoscaling events (rom the RDS events. Create a CloudWatch alarm. Configure the EventBridge rule to change the status of the CloudWatch alarm. Visualize the alarm status by using the CloudWatch dashboard.
D) Create a trail by using AWS CloudTrail with data events configured. Configure the trail to send the data events to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Create a metric filter in CloudWatch Logs to match the RDS storage autoscaling events. Visualize the metric filter by using the CloudWatch dashboard. Step 1: Reacting to RDS Storage Autoscaling Events Using Amazon EventBridge Amazon RDS emits events when storage autoscaling occurs. To visualize these events in a CloudWatch dashboard, you can create an EventBridge rule that listens for these specific autoscaling events. Action: Create an EventBridge rule that reacts to RDS storage autoscaling events from the RDS event stream. Why: EventBridge allows you to listen to RDS events and route them to specific AWS services for processing. Step 2: Creating a Custom CloudWatch Metric via Lambda Once the EventBridge rule detects a storage autoscaling event, you can use a Lambda function to publish a custom metric to CloudWatch. This metric can then be visualized in a CloudWatch dashboard. Action: Use a Lambda function to publish custom metrics to CloudWatch based on the RDS storage autoscaling events. Why: Custom metrics allow you to track specific events like autoscaling and visualize them easily on a CloudWatch dashboard.

I vaguely recall that using CloudTrail with management events could work, but I’m not confident it captures the specific autoscaling events we need for visualization.

I’m leaning towards option A because it directly addresses the autoscaling events, but I’m a bit confused about how the Lambda function integrates with CloudWatch.

I remember practicing a similar question where we used CloudTrail, but I feel like it might not be the best fit here since we're focusing on real-time events.

I'm not too familiar with EventBridge, so I'll need to do some research on that before the exam. But the overall concept of visualizing the autoscaling events in CloudWatch makes sense to me.
