Amazon Web Services DVA-C02 Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Why Option B is Correct:RDS Proxy manages database connections efficiently, reducing overhead on the RDS instance and mitigating "too many connections" errors.

Why Other Options are Incorrect:

Option A: DAX is for DynamoDB, not RDS.

Option C: Migration to PostgreSQL does not address the current issue.

Option D: ElastiCache is useful for caching but does not solve connection pool issues.

This solution will meet the requirements by storing the Root CA Cert as a Secure String parameter in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store, which is a secure and scalable service for storing and managing configuration data and secrets. The resource-based policy will allow IAM users in different AWS accounts and environments to access the parameter without requiring cross-account roles or permissions. The Lambda code will be refactored to load the Root CA Cert from the parameter store and modify the runtime trust store outside the Lambda function handler, which will improve performance and reduce latency by avoiding repeated calls to Parameter Store and trust store modifications for each invocation of the Lambda function. Option A is not optimal because it will use AWS Secrets Manager instead of AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store, which will incur additional costs and complexity for storing and managing a non-secret configuration data such as Root CA Cert. Option C is not optimal because it will deactivate the application secrets and monitor the application error logs temporarily, which will cause application downtime and potential data loss. Option D is not optimal because it will modify the runtime trust store inside the Lambda function handler, which will degrade performance and increase latency by repeating unnecessary operations for each invocation of the Lambda function.

The solution that will meet the requirements with the most operational efficiency is to create a new CodePipeline stage that occurs after the container image is built. Configure ECR basic image scanning to scan on image push. Use an AWS Lambda function as the action provider. Configure the Lambda function to check the scan results and to fail the pipeline if there are findings. This way, the container image is analyzed earlier in the CI/CD pipeline and any vulnerabilities are detected and reported before deploying to the EKS cluster. The other options either delay the analysis until after deployment, which increases the risk of exposing insecure images, or perform analysis on the source code instead of the container image, which may not capture all the dependencies and configurations that affect the security posture of the image.
