WGU Cloud Deployment and Operations (D341) Exam - Topic 7 Question 11 Discussion

Posted by Trinidad on May 04, 2026 at 05:21 PM

(Which two solutions should an administrator use to receive emails when a Lambda function returns an error? Choose 2 answers.)

Suggested Answer: B, C

To receive emails when a Lambda function returns an error, the administrator should use Amazon CloudWatch to monitor the function's logs and metrics (e.g., errors) and Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) to send email notifications based on CloudWatch alarms. The WGU Cloud Deployment and Operations Study Guide (Section 4.3, CloudWatch and SNS) states, 'CloudWatch can detect Lambda errors via logs and trigger an alarm, which integrates with SNS to send email notifications to subscribed endpoints, ensuring timely error alerts.' SQS and CloudTrail are not designed for this notification workflow.
