A solutions architect is designing a solution to connect a company's on-premises network with all the company's current and future VPCs on AWS The company is running VPCs in five different AWS Regions and has at least 15 VPCs in each Region.
The company's AWS usage is constantly increasing and will continue to grow Additionally, all the VPCs throughout all five Regions must be able to communicate with each other
The solution must maximize scalability and ease of management Which solution meets these requirements'?

1. A. Set up a transit gateway in each Region Establish a redundant AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection between the on-premises firewalls and the transit gateway in the Region that is closest to theon-premises network Peer all the transit gateways with each other Connect all the VPCs to the transitgateway in their Region
2. B. Create an AWS CloudFormation template for a redundant AWS Site-to-Site VPN tunnel to theon-premises network Deploy the CloudFormation template for each VPC Set up VPC peering between all the VPCs for VPC-to-VPC communication
3. C. Set up a transit gateway in each Region Establish a redundant AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection between the on-premises firewalls and each transit gateway Route traffic between the different Regions through the company's on-premises firewalls Connect all the VPCs to the transit gateway in their Region
4. D. Create an AWS CloudFormation template for a redundant AWS Site-to-Site VPN tunnel to theon-premises network Deploy the CloudFormation template for each VPC Route traffic between the different Regions through the company's on-premises firewalls

A company is migrating its infrastructure to the AW5 Cloud. The company must comply with a variety of
regulatory standards for different projects. The company needs a multi-account environment.
A solutions architect needs to prepare the baseline infrastructure The solution must provide a consistent baseline of management and security but it must allow flexibility for different compliance requirements within various AWS accounts. The solution also needs to integrate with the existing on-premises Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) server.
Which solution meets these requirements with the LEAST amount of operational overhead?

1. A. Create an organization In AWS Organizations Create a single SCP for least privilege access across all accounts Create a single OU for all accounts Configure an IAM identity provider tor federation with the on-premises AD FS server Configure a central togging account with a defined process for log generating services to send log events to the central accoun
2. B. Enable AWS Config in the central account with conformance packs for all accounts.
3. C. Create an organization In AWS Organizations Enable AWS Control Tower on the organizatio
4. D. Review included guardrails for SCP
5. E. Check AWS Config for areas that require additions Add OUs as necessary Connect AWS Single Sign-On to the on-premises AD FS server
6. F. Create an organization in AWS Organizations Create SCPs for least privilege access Create an OU structure, and use it to group AWS accounts Connect AWS Single Sign-On to the on-premises AD FS serve
7. G. Configure a central logging account with a defined process for tog generating services to send log events to the central account Enable AWS Config in the central account with aggregators and conformance packs.
8. H. Create an organization in AWS Organizations Enable AWS Control Tower on the organization Review included guardrails for SCP
9. I. Check AWS Config for areas that require additions Configure an IAM identity provider for federation with the on-premises AD FS server.

A company has built a high performance computing (HPC) cluster in AWS for a tightly coupled workload that generates a large number of shared files stored in Amazon EFS. The cluster was performing well when the number of Amazon EC2 instances in the cluster was 100. However, when the company increased the cluster size to 1,000 EC2 instances, overall performance was well below expectations
Which collection of design choices should a solutions architect make to achieve the maximum performance from the HPC cluster? (Select THREE.)

1. A. Ensure the HPC cluster is launched within a single Availability Zone.
2. B. Launch the EC2 instances and attach elastic network interfaces in multiples of four.
3. C. Select EC2 instance types with an Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) enabled
4. D. Ensure the cluster is launched across multiple Availability Zones.
5. E. Replace Amazon EFS with multiple Amazon EBS volumes in a RAID array.
6. F. Replace Amazon EFS with Amazon FSx for Lustre.
