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

Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) is a fully managed pub/sub messaging service that enables users to send messages to multiple subscribers1. Users can sendevent details to an Amazon SNS topic and configure an AWS Lambda function as a subscriber to the SNS topic to process the events. Lambda is a serverless compute service that runs code in response to events and automatically manages the underlying compute resources2. Users can add an on-failure destination to the function and set an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue as the target. Amazon SQS is a fully managed message queuing service that enables users to decouple and scale microservices, distributed systems, and serverless applications3. This way, if a processing error occurs, the event will move into the separate queue for review.

Option B is incorrect because publishing events to an Amazon SQS queue and creating an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group will not have the ability to scale in and out based on the number of events that the solution receives. Amazon EC2 is a web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud. Auto Scaling is a feature that helps users maintain application availability and allows them to scale their EC2 capacity up or down automatically according to conditions they define. However, for this use case, using SQS and EC2 will not take advantage of the serverless capabilities of Lambda and SNS.

Option C is incorrect because writing events to an Amazon DynamoDB table and configuring a DynamoDB stream for the table will not have the ability to move events into a separate queue for review if a processing error occurs. Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed key-value and document database that delivers single-digit millisecond performance at any scale. DynamoDB Streams is a feature that captures data modification events in DynamoDB tables. Users can configure the stream to invoke a Lambda function, but they cannot configure an on-failure destination for the function.

Option D is incorrect because publishing events to an Amazon EventBridge event bus and setting an Application Load Balancer (ALB) as the event bus target will not have the ability to move events into a separate queue for review if a processing error occurs. Amazon EventBridge is a serverless event bus service that makes it easy to connect applications with data from a variety of sources. An ALB is a load balancer that distributes incoming application traffic across multiple targets, such as EC2 instances, containers, IP addresses, Lambda functions, and virtual appliances. Users can configure EventBridge to retry events, but they cannot configure an on-failure destination for the ALB.

Integrate ALB with OIDC IdP:

In the AWS Management Console, navigate to the Application Load Balancer (ALB) settings.

Configure the ALB to use the OpenID Connect (OIDC) IdP for authentication. This ensures that all requests routed through the ALB are authenticated using the IdP.

Set Up Authentication Rules:

Create a listener rule on the ALB that requires authentication. This rule will forward requests to the IdP for user authentication before allowing access to the backend services.

Restrict Unauthenticated Access:

Ensure the ALB only forwards requests to backend services if the user is authenticated. Unauthenticated requests should be blocked or redirected to the IdP for authentication.

Update CloudFront Configuration:

Modify the CloudFront distribution to forward authenticated requests to the ALB. Ensure that the ALB and API Gateway accept only requests coming through the CloudFront distribution to enforce consistent authentication and security.

By enforcing authentication at the ALB level, you ensure that all backend services are accessed only by authenticated users, enhancing the overall security of the web application
