Topic #: 6

[All Salesforce Certified Heroku Architect (Plat-Arch-206) Questions]

Universal Containers has recently experienced a higher volume of traffic on their mobile app hosted on Heroku. When Universal Containers was running 4 standard-2x dynos with 1 GB RAM each, they encountered multiple H12 ("request timeout") errors. The app never consumed more than 800 MB of RAM. They then switched to performance-m dynos, with 2.5 GB RAM, and set autoscaling to a maximum of 2 dynos. However, they still encountered H12 ("request timeout") errors.

What remediation should an Architect recommend to alleviate this problem?

AMove long-running tasks to worker dynos.

BAdd a logging add-on from the Elements marketplace.

CUpgrade to performance-L dynos with 14 GB RAM.

DReplace autoscaling with a manual scaling option of 2.

Adding a logging add-on could help identify the real issue too!

Autoscaling might not be the best option here, manual scaling could work better.

I think upgrading to performance-L dynos could really help!

Moving long-running tasks to worker dynos sounds smart.

I practiced a similar question where autoscaling was ineffective. I wonder if switching to manual scaling could stabilize the app, but I'm not convinced that's the best approach here.

Adding a logging add-on might help us understand the root cause of the timeouts, but I don't think it directly addresses the H12 errors.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think upgrading to performance-L dynos could help with the memory issue. However, it seems like a more expensive solution.

I remember studying H12 errors and how they relate to request timeouts. Moving long-running tasks to worker dynos seems like a solid option to reduce the load on web dynos.

Okay, I think I've got a strategy here. Since autoscaling isn't working, I'd recommend trying a manual scaling option of 2 dynos. That way, they can ensure they have enough resources without potentially over-provisioning. Seems like the most straightforward solution.

Hmm, I'm not sure if adding a logging add-on would really solve the timeout issue. That seems more like a troubleshooting step rather than a direct remediation. I'd focus on the scaling and task management aspects first.

I'm a bit confused by this question. The app is not consuming more than 800 MB of RAM, so I'm not sure why they're still encountering timeout errors. Upgrading to larger dynos might be overkill in this case.

This looks like a classic performance issue with the Heroku app. I think moving long-running tasks to worker dynos could be a good first step to try and alleviate the problem.

Hmm, I'm not sure. IaaS might also work well since you have more control over the infrastructure and can customize it for your testing needs.

I'm a bit confused by this question. The options seem to cover a range of different topics related to software testing and XML. I'll have to review my notes on XML and querying before I can confidently answer this.

I'm a bit torn between options A and C. They both seem to involve a similar process of identifying gaps, solutions, and dependencies, and then grouping them into work packages. I'll need to carefully compare the details of each approach to decide which one is truly the best.

I'm trying to recall if Elastic IP addresses are only for NAT instances. I should double-check whether they need to be attached to the EC2 directly or something else.

I've always mixed up Tcrway and GA; I think GA is connected to ACK networks, but I need to double-check that!

Wait, so they're getting timeout errors on an app that's not even using all the RAM it has? Someone call the IT Helpdesk, we've got a real brain teaser here!

Replacing autoscaling with manual scaling? What is this, the Stone Age? Autoscaling is the way to go, even if it takes some trial and error to get it right.

Moving long-running tasks to worker dynos seems like the obvious choice here. That way, the main app can focus on handling incoming requests more efficiently.
