AWS Global Infrastructure for Secure Access: 10 practice questions

Question 1 of 10

What is an Availability Zone?

1. AA global endpoint that automatically replicates regional resources
2. BA group of several AWS Regions
3. CA customer data center that replaces its parent AWS Region
4. DAn isolated location within an AWS Region

Question 2 of 10

How are AWS Regions related to one another?

1. AThey automatically hold replicas of every resource created elsewhere.
2. BThey are subnets selected only to separate EC2 instances.
3. CThey are letter-coded locations inside one shared Availability Zone.
4. DThey are separate geographic areas designed for isolation.

Question 3 of 10

What happens automatically to an EC2 resource when another AWS Region is selected in the console?

1. AThe resource becomes global and is visible through every Regional endpoint.
2. BThe resource and its full configuration are automatically copied into the newly selected Region.
3. CThe resource moves to an Availability Zone in the selected Region.
4. DThe original regional resource is not shown or replicated into the other Region.

Question 4 of 10

Which deployment reduces exposure to the failure of one location inside a Region?

1. APlace every EC2 instance in one subnet and one Availability Zone behind a Regional API endpoint.
2. BRename the Availability Zone code without moving any instances.
3. CDistribute EC2 instances across multiple Availability Zones in that Region.
4. DUse one Regional endpoint for instances in a single Availability Zone.

Question 5 of 10

A new EC2 instance must be physically separated from an existing instance but remain in the same Region. What placement choice matters?

1. ASelect a different Availability Zone for the new instance.
2. BCopy the instance automatically to every AWS Region.
3. CChange only the EC2 Regional API endpoint used by the operator.
4. DSelect the same subnet and let the instances share one location.

Question 6 of 10

Which requirement is a direct reason to select a particular AWS Region?

1. ASeparating an additional instance from another instance in the same VPC
2. BChoosing whether an initial instance uses a healthy zone with available capacity
3. CPlacing two instances in isolated locations inside the same geographic area
4. DKeeping instances close to customers or satisfying a legal-location condition

Question 7 of 10

No EC2 placement relationship is required for an initial instance. What Availability Zone choice is recommended?

1. ASelect a different Region and rely on automatic resource replication.
2. BForce one zone for every future instance.
3. CChoose a zone code solely because its letter matches another account's code.
4. DLet AWS select a zone based on system health and available capacity.

Question 8 of 10

A regulated service must keep data in a specified country and continue after one data-center-location failure. Which placement sequence satisfies both constraints?

1. AChoose one global Availability Zone for every country rule.
2. BChoose a compliant Region, then deploy across multiple Availability Zones there.
3. CDeploy in multiple Regions and assume every resource is automatically replicated.
4. DDeploy in one compliant Availability Zone and use a Regional endpoint for resilience.

Question 9 of 10

An application must remain near customers in one geography, and a second instance must be isolated from the first without changing that geography. What design fits?

1. ASelect the customer-near Region and place the instances in different Availability Zones.
2. BPlace the instances in different Regions and expect identical resources automatically.
3. CUse one subnet for both instances because a subnet spans all zones in a Region.
4. DPlace both instances in one zone and change only their Regional endpoints and displayed zone names.

Question 10 of 10

An operations script manages EC2 instances in two isolated geographic areas, and the resources must not be assumed to exist in both. What must the script do?

1. ATarget each Region's endpoint and handle each Region's resources separately.
2. BUse one zone endpoint because Availability Zones contain multiple Regions.
3. CUse a single global EC2 resource view and ignore the selected Region.
4. DTarget either Region and rely on automatic replication to expose both resource sets.
