Amazon Exam SAP-C02 Topic 10 Question 45 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's SAP-C02 exam

Question #: 45
Topic #: 10

A company is running a large containerized workload in the AWS Cloud. The workload consists of approximately 100 different services. The company uses Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) to orchestrate the workload.

Recently, the company's development team started using AWS Fargate instead of Amazon EC2 instances in the ECS cluster. In the past, the workload has come close to running the maximum number of EC2 instances that are available in the account.

The company is worried that the workload could reach the maximum number of ECS tasks that are allowed. A solutions architect must implement a solution that will notify the development team when Fargate reaches 80% of the maximum number of tasks.

What should the solutions architect do to meet this requirement?

AUse Amazon CloudWatch to monitor the Sample Count statistic for each service in the ECS cluster. Set an alarm for when the math expression sample count/SERVICE_QUOTA(service)'100 is greater than 80. Notify the development team by using Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS).

BUse Amazon CloudWatch to monitor service quotas that are published under the AWS/Usage metric namespace. Set an alarm for when the math expression metric/SERVICE_QUOTA(metric)*100 is greater than 80. Notify the development team by using Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS).

CCreate an AWS Lambda function to poll detailed metrics from the ECS cluster. When the number of running Fargate tasks is greater than 80, invoke Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES) to notify the development team.

DCreate an AWS Config rule to evaluate whether the Fargate SERVICE_OUOTA is greater than 80. Use Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES) to notify the development team when the AWS Config rule is not compliant.

Ha! Monitoring the 'Sample Count' statistic? That's a bit of a stretch, don't you think? I'm going with option B, it just seems the most logical.

Hmm, I'm not sure about the correct answer here. Using CloudWatch to monitor the service quota seems like the most straightforward approach, but I'm curious about the other options too.
