C sounds risky, no gradual testing at all!

Wait, can you really just switch aliases like that?

D seems overly complicated for just a rollback.

I’m leaning towards option B since it allows for a gradual rollout, but I’m not entirely sure if that’s the best way to handle errors.

I practiced a question like this, and I feel like option D is overcomplicated. I wonder if the simpler options might be just as effective.

I think option A sounds familiar because it’s straightforward, but I’m not confident if it minimizes user impact as much as option B might.

I remember studying how aliases work with Lambda versions, but I'm not sure if we should use an alias for gradual traffic shifting or just roll back completely.

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.

Option D looks like the most robust solution, with the ability to gradually roll out the new version and easily roll back if needed. That's the one I'm leaning towards.

I'm a bit confused by the different alias options. I'll need to review the details of each approach more carefully before deciding.

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.

I'm feeling a bit like a 'lambda' in this exam question. Get it? 'Lambda' function? Eh, tough crowd.

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.

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).

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

Option D with the three aliases is the most complex, but it does give the most control over the rollout. Gradually shifting traffic is a good idea.

It's important to have a plan in place to easily roll back changes if needed, especially for critical functions like AWS Lambda.

Option B with the 10% traffic split is an interesting approach. Gradually shifting users to the new version is a smart way to test it.
