A developer needs to launch a test server for a new application prototype. The developer logs into the AWS Management Console, selects an Amazon EC2 instance type, configures the security group, and starts the instance. The instance is running within two minutes, and the developer did not need to submit a formal request to the company's IT procurement team or wait for approval from a cloud administrator. Which essential characteristic of cloud computing does this scenario best demonstrate?

A company has 200 IAM users. The security team needs to automatically verify that every IAM user has enabled multi-factor authentication (MFA) for console access. They also need to receive a notification whenever a new user is created without MFA so they can enforce the policy. Which AWS service should the security team use to meet these requirements?

A company has a global user base that uploads images to an Amazon S3 bucket in the us-east-1 Region. Users report slow upload speeds and frequent timeouts when uploading large files from distant locations. The company wants to use the AWS global network and edge locations to accelerate uploads to the S3 bucket. The solution must require minimal infrastructure changes on the client side and must be configured at the bucket level. Which AWS feature should the company enable?

A company generates large log files from its application and stores them in an Amazon S3 bucket. During the first 30 days, logs are frequently accessed for troubleshooting. After 30 days, logs are accessed infrequently (a few times per month). After 90 days, logs are rarely accessed but must be retained for compliance for one year, with retrieval possible within minutes if needed. The company wants to minimize storage costs while meeting these access and retention requirements. Which S3 feature should the company configure?

A company hosts a multi-tier web application on AWS. The web tier runs on Amazon EC2 instances in a public subnet, and the database tier runs on Amazon EC2 instances in a private subnet. The security team needs to configure security groups to allow only the web tier instances to communicate with the database tier on port 3306 (MySQL). The web tier must be accessible from the internet on port 443. Which security group configuration meets these requirements?

A company ingests sensor data from IoT devices into an Amazon S3 bucket. The data is accessed frequently for the first 30 days, but after that, it is rarely queried. The company’s compliance policy requires all data to be retained for 7 years. The company wants to minimize storage costs by automatically moving data to more cost-effective storage classes as it ages, without any manual intervention. Which Amazon S3 feature should the company configure to meet these requirements?

A company has multiple AWS accounts consolidated under AWS Organizations. The finance team wants to set a hard monthly cost limit for a development account. If the forecasted costs for the month exceed that limit, the team wants AWS to automatically stop all non-critical Amazon EC2 instances in that account to prevent overspending. The team also needs to receive an email alert when the cost threshold is first crossed. Which AWS service or feature should the team use to define the budget and configure the automated action?

A company hosts a public-facing web application behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The development team has recently identified that the application is vulnerable to common web attacks such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS). The security team wants to deploy a managed solution that can inspect incoming HTTP requests and block malicious traffic before it reaches the application. The solution must integrate directly with the existing ALB and provide pre-configured rule sets that can be customized. Which AWS service should the company use?

A company manages 15 AWS accounts through AWS Organizations. The finance team needs to perform custom analysis of monthly costs across all accounts. They want to download a detailed, hourly-level CSV file that breaks down usage and costs by service, by member account, and by user-defined cost allocation tags. The file must be delivered to an Amazon S3 bucket daily, and the team will then query the data using Amazon Athena and create dashboards in Amazon QuickSight. Which AWS feature should they configure to meet these requirements?

A company is migrating its IT operations to AWS. Previously, when a developer needed a new server for a project, the developer had to submit a formal request to the IT department. The request would be reviewed, approved, and then a physical server would be procured, configured, and deployed—a process that often took several weeks. After migrating to AWS, the developer can log in to the AWS Management Console and launch a new Amazon EC2 instance with the exact required configuration within minutes, without any interaction with IT staff. Which essential characteristic of cloud computing does this scenario BEST demonstrate?
