[All LFCA Questions]

An IT associate has a web application running on multiple servers, configured to scale based on CPU usage. The current configuration has a minimum size of 1 and a maximum size of 5 servers, designed to launch and spread the instances across 3 Availability Zones (AZ). During a low utilization period, an entire AZ went down, and the application experienced downtime. What can the IT associate do to increase the availability of the application?

Wait, did the question say the AZ went down, or the IT associate? Either way, I hope they have a backup plan, like a cup of coffee and a good sense of humor.

Increasing the maximum to 6? That's overkill, unless we're planning to host the entire internet on this app.

Decreasing the AZs to 2? That's risky, we might as well put all our eggs in one basket!

Scaling based on number of requests? Interesting, but what if the requests are low and the CPU usage is still high?

Hmm, increasing the minimum to 2 seems like a good start. At least we'll have a fallback if one AZ goes down.

I think increasing the maximum to 6 servers would provide better redundancy in case of AZ failure.

I disagree, I believe changing to scale based on number of requests would be a better solution.
