Amazon DVA-C02 Exam - Topic 1 Question 35 Discussion

A developer wants the ability to roll back to a previous version of an AWS Lambda function in the event of errors caused by a new deployment. How can the developer achieve this with MINIMAL impact on users?
A) Change the application to use an alias that points to the current version. Deploy the new version of the code Update the alias to use the newly deployed version. If too many errors are encountered, point the alias back to the previous version.
B) Change the application to use an alias that points to the current version. Deploy the new version of the code. Update the alias to direct 10% of users to the newly deployed version. If too many errors are encountered, send 100% of traffic to the previous version
C) Do not make any changes to the application. Deploy the new version of the code. If too many errors are encountered, point the application back to the previous version using the version number in the Amazon Resource Name (ARN).
D) Create three aliases: new, existing, and router. Point the existing alias to the current version. Have the router alias direct 100% of users to the existing alias. Update the application to use the router alias. Deploy the new version of the code. Point the new alias to this version. Update the router alias to direct 10% of users to the new alias. If too many errors are encountered, send 100% of traffic to the existing alias.

Option C seems the simplest, but I'm not sure if directly updating the ARN is the best practice here. I'll need to double-check the AWS documentation on that.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know the CALs are important, but I'm not sure which file would be the right one to restore. I'll have to review the material again and see if I can figure it out.

Why not just have the app auto-rollback to the previous version if it detects too many errors? That would be the most seamless approach.
