Amazon Exam SOA-C03 Topic 4 Question 2 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's SOA-C03 exam

Question #: 2
Topic #: 4

A company's CloudOps engineer monitors multiple AWS accounts in an organization and checks each account's AWS Health Dashboard. After adding 10 new accounts, the engineer wants to consolidate health alerts from all accounts.

Which solution meets this requirement with the least operational effort?

AEnable organizational view in AWS Health.

BConfigure the Health Dashboard in each account to forward events to a central AWS CloudTrail log.

CCreate an AWS Lambda function to query the AWS Health API and write all events to an Amazon DynamoDB table.

DUse the AWS Health API to write events to an Amazon DynamoDB table.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

The AWS Cloud Operations and Governance documentation defines that enabling Organizational View in AWS Health allows the management account in AWS Organizations to view and aggregate health events from all member accounts.

This feature provides a single-pane-of-glass view of service health issues, account-specific events, and planned maintenance across the organization --- without requiring additional automation or data pipelines.

Alternative options (B, C, and D) require custom integration and ongoing maintenance. CloudTrail does not natively forward AWS Health events, and custom Lambda or DynamoDB approaches increase complexity.

Therefore, Option A --- enabling the Organizational View feature in AWS Health --- is the most operationally efficient and AWS-recommended solution.

I'm leaning towards option A as well. It seems like the most straightforward solution that meets the requirement of consolidating health alerts from all accounts with the least operational effort.

Option B sounds like a lot of work - having to configure the Health Dashboard in each individual account and set up forwarding to a central CloudTrail log. That seems like it would take a lot of time and effort.

I'm a bit confused about the difference between options C and D. Both involve using the AWS Health API to write events to DynamoDB, but C mentions creating a Lambda function. Not sure if that adds any extra complexity.

I think option A is the easiest way to go. Enabling the organizational view in AWS Health should let me see all the health alerts in one place without having to set up anything else.
