SAP-C02 Practice Question: Design Solutions for Organizational Complexity
This SAP-C02 practice question tests your understanding of design solutions for organizational complexity. This is a configuration task: choose the command set that satisfies every stated requirement. Small differences — like 'secret' vs 'password' or 'transport input ssh' vs 'all' — change whether the answer is correct. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
A company uses AWS Organizations with consolidated billing. The company wants to share a centrally managed Amazon VPC subnet across multiple accounts using AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM). Which THREE resources can be shared via RAM? (Choose THREE.)
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
License configurations
Option A is correct because AWS License Manager configurations can be shared across accounts using AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM), enabling centralized management of software licenses. This allows organizations to enforce license usage limits and rules consistently across multiple accounts in an AWS Organization.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Common exam traps
Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword
The trap here is that candidates often assume VPC peering connections can be shared via RAM because they are a networking construct, but RAM only supports sharing of resources that can be centrally managed and attached to multiple accounts, not point-to-point connections like VPC peering.
Detailed technical explanation
How to think about this question
AWS RAM supports sharing of subnets, transit gateways, and License Manager configurations, among other resources. When you share a subnet, the participating accounts can launch resources directly into that subnet, but they cannot modify the VPC or its route tables. Transit gateway sharing allows multiple accounts to attach their VPCs to a centrally managed transit gateway, simplifying network architecture. License Manager configuration sharing enforces license rules across accounts without needing individual license setups.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
- Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
- Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.
TExam Day Tips
- Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
- Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
How this comes up in practice
A startup's cloud architect reviews their monthly bill and notices costs are higher than expected for a long-running batch job. Switching from on-demand instances to Reserved Instances — or using Spot/Preemptible VMs — can reduce compute costs by up to 72 %. Questions like this test whether you understand the tradeoffs between commitment, flexibility, and cost across cloud pricing models.
