Amazon SAA-C03 Exam - Topic 3 Question 38 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's SAA-C03 exam

Question #: 38
Topic #: 3

A company runs containers in a Kubernetes environment in the company's local data center. The company wants to use Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) and other AWS managed services Data must remain locally in the company's data center and cannot be stored in any remote site or cloud to maintain compliance

Which solution will meet these requirements?

ADeploy AWS Local Zones in the company's data center

BUse an AWS Snowmobile in the company's data center

CInstall an AWS Outposts rack in the company's data center

DInstall an AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized node in the data center

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

AWS Outposts is a fully managed service that delivers AWS infrastructure and services to virtually any on-premises or edge location for a consistent hybrid experience. AWS Outposts supports Amazon EKS, which is a managed service that makes it easy to run Kubernetes on AWS and on-premises. By installing an AWS Outposts rack in the company's data center, the company can run containers in a Kubernetes environment using Amazon EKS and other AWS managed services, while keeping the data locally in the company's data center and meeting the compliance requirements. AWS Outposts also provides a seamless connection to the local AWS Region for access to a broad range of AWS services.

Option A is not a valid solution because AWS Local Zones are not deployed in the company's data center, but in large metropolitan areas closer to end users. AWS Local Zones are owned, managed, and operated by AWS, and they provide low-latency access to the public internet and the local AWS Region. Option B is not a valid solution because AWS Snowmobile is a service that transports exabytes of data to AWS using a 45-foot long ruggedized shipping container pulled by a semi-trailer truck. AWS Snowmobile is not designed for running containers or AWS managed services on-premises, but for large-scale data migration. Option D is not a valid solution because AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized is a device that provides 80 TB of HDD or 210 TB of NVMe storage capacity for data transfer and edge computing. AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized does not support Amazon EKS or other AWS managed services, and it is not suitable for running containers in a Kubernetes environment.

Snowmobile sounds familiar, but I thought it was more for data transfer rather than running Kubernetes. I'm a bit confused about that one.

I practiced a similar question about compliance and data residency, and I think Outposts is the best option since it keeps everything local.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think Local Zones are more about extending AWS services rather than keeping everything on-site.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question. The key is to identify the TOGAF phase and technique that best addresses the CIO's concerns about the firm's ability to adapt to the proposed architecture and manage the associated risks.
