Only the Organizations management account (or roles in that account) can call organizations:CreateAccount directly. When moving the Lambda function to a different (dedicated) account, the correct pattern is to perform cross-account role assumption into a role that resides in the management account and has tightly scoped Organizations permissions.

Option A describes exactly this:

Create an IAM role in the management account with only the required Organizations permissions (for example, organizations:CreateAccount and related read permissions).

Configure the trust policy on that role to allow it to be assumed by the Lambda execution role in the new account.

Update the Lambda code to call sts:AssumeRole into the management-account role before invoking the Organizations API.

This approach ensures that:

The Lambda function can create new accounts, but only via the management account.

The Lambda execution role in the dedicated account has no direct Organizations permissions; it only has permission to assume the specific role.

Option B is incorrect because “delegated administration for Organizations” in the generic sense is not how CreateAccount is exposed; account creation remains a management-account responsibility. Options C and D either misconfigure trust or introduce unnecessary Control Tower complexity. Cross-account assume-role from the dedicated account into the management account is the correct and least-privilege solution.

The best solution to implement failover for the application is to use CloudFront origin groups. Origin groups allow CloudFront to automatically switch to a secondary origin when the primary origin is unavailable or returns specific HTTP status codes that indicate a failure1. This way, CloudFront can serve the requests from the secondary ALB in the secondary Region without any delay or redirection. To set up origin groups, the DevOps engineer needs to create a new origin on the distribution for the secondary ALB, create a new origin group with the original ALB as the primary origin and the secondary ALB as the secondary origin, and configure the origin group to fail over for HTTP 5xx status codes. Then, the DevOps engineer needs to update the default behavior to use the origin group instead of the single origin2.

The other options are not as effective or efficient as the solution in option B. Option A is not suitable because creating a second CloudFront distribution will increase the complexity and cost of the application. Moreover, using Route 53 alias records with a failover policy will introduce some delay in detecting and switching to the secondary CloudFront distribution, which may not meet the zero-second RTO requirement. Option C is not feasible because CloudFront does not support using Route 53 alias records as origins3. Option D is not advisable because using a CloudFront function to redirect the requests to the secondary ALB will add an extra round-trip and latency to the failover process, which may also not meet the zero-second RTO requirement.

The operating system (Amazon Linux) uses yum for package management. To use both the default and a custom repository, the simplest method is to add the custom repository configuration file under /etc/yum.repos.d/ using the yum-config-manager CLI, and enable it. This allows the system to access both repositories during patching automatically.

This approach requires minimal setup and effort and leverages the existing yum patching mechanisms.

Option A and D involve managing multiple patch baselines in Systems Manager Patch Manager, which does not natively support custom repositories — it relies on the underlying OS package manager.

Option B (Direct Connect) is not necessary unless network connectivity is an issue.

Thus, option C meets the requirement with the least effort.
