Question 1
A company runs several containerized applications on Amazon ECS. The company's development teams use AWS CodeBuild to build container images and push the container images to Amazon ECR. The company needs a solution that scans images for vulnerabilities in operating system packages and programming language dependencies. Images with critical vulnerabilities must not be pushed to Amazon ECR. Images already in Amazon ECR must be automatically re-scanned. The company must be notified if critical vulnerabilities are found. Which solution will meet these requirements?
Question 2
A company is planning a large event where a promotional offer will be introduced. The company's website is hosted on AWS and backed by an Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL DB instance. The website explains the promotion and includes a sign-up page that collects user information and preferences. Management expects large and unpredictable volumes of traffic periodically, which will create many database writes. A solutions architect needs to build a solution that does not change the underlying data model and ensures that submissions are not dropped before they are committed to the database. Which solution will meet these requirements?
Question 3
A company uses an on-premises Active Directory service to authenticate users. The company wants to use the same authentication service to sign in to the company's AWS accounts. The company uses an organization in AWS Organizations to manage its AWS accounts. The company has already used AWS Site-to-Site VPN to establish connectivity between the on-premises environment and the company's AWS accounts. The company must establish conditional access to the accounts based on user groups and roles. User identities must be managed in a single location. Which solution will meet these requirements?
Question 4
A company uses an Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL database to support an application. The application processes real-time data and displays historical trends. During business hours, the application experiences a high request rate. Approximately 95% of the requests are read operations to retrieve the same data repeatedly. The application's response time degrades significantly during peak hours, and database CPU utilization reaches 85%. The company requires the data to be available within 100 ms. The application must be strongly consistent for queries. Responses must be no more than 15 seconds out of date. The company needs a caching solution to improve response times and improve application performance. Which solution will meet these requirements?
Question 5
A company uses AWS Organizations for a multi-account setup in the AWS Cloud. The company's finance team has a data processing application that uses AWS Lambda and Amazon DynamoDB. The company's marketing team wants to access the data that is stored in the DynamoDB table. The DynamoDB table contains confidential data. The marketing team can have access to only specific attributes of data in the DynamoDB table. The finance team and the marketing team have separate AWS accounts. What should a solutions architect do to provide the marketing team with the appropriate access to the DynamoDB table?
Question 6
A company is building an application that will run on an AWS Lambda function. Hundreds of customers will use the application. The company wants to give each customer a quota of requests for a specific time period. The quotas must match customer usage patterns. Some customers must receive a higher quota for a shorter time period. Which solution will meet these requirements?

Solutions Architect Professional Practice and Access FAQs

Understand review, study tools and access before choosing your next step.

Who verifies the questions and answers?

Subject matter expert trainers in each niche review every question and answer before it enters the ExamPrepare database. Answer votes and discussions add perspectives after publication; they do not replace this review. Learn more on our methodology page.

How closely does the simulator match an exam?

The simulator uses vendor-style layouts and supported question interactions to help you practise navigation and pacing. Choose learning, practice or timed exam mode. Formats vary by exam; try the five-question sample to see the experience available for your certification.

What are hot questions?

Hot questions help you prioritise questions with stronger reporting or answer-vote activity. In the reading library, the filter selects questions with at least three recorded sightings or at least three votes for an answer. It has no recency cutoff and does not predict your exam questions. Use it alongside weaker topics and the exam objectives.

Can I read questions without starting a simulation?

Yes. Paid reading access lets you display 6, 10, 25, 50 or 100 questions per page, select a question range, filter for hot questions and show answers while reading. Choose the simulator whenever you want a learning, practice or timed exam session.

Can I download questions and answers as a PDF?

Each exam overview offers a free PDF sample of up to 10 supported questions. With paid reading access, you can also export supported single- and multiple-choice questions with their answers and images. Interactive question formats need the website and are not included as interactive PDF exercises.

How do votes and discussions relate to verified answers?

SME trainers review the questions and answers before publication. Imported answer reports show aggregate responses, while on-site votes and comments reflect participation on ExamPrepare. Use discussion to compare reasoning and investigate disagreements; a majority vote alone does not prove an answer correct.

What does a purchase unlock?

A purchase unlocks the complete question bank for the selected exam, access without CAPTCHA checks, reading controls, supported PDF exports and full learning, practice and timed simulation features. It covers that exam for the duration of the plan you choose, rather than every certification in the catalogue.

Where can I find my purchased exams and expiry dates?

Sign in to the account used for your purchase and open your profile. Your purchased exam library shows study links and access expiry dates so you can return to an exam and check how much access time remains.
