Before I start, can I suggest to TD to make the guide text on the title and body of discussions to be clearer as they are so faint, some of us do not have very good sight, thanks.

20 You are creating a CloudFormation script to deploy an online voting application for a Nature Photography Contest that accepts high-resolution images, stores them in an S3 bucket, and records 100-character summary about the image in RDS. As a Solutions Architect, you have to ensure that the same online voting application can be deployed once again using the same CloudFormation template for the succeeding contests in the future. The photography contest will run for just a month and once it has been concluded, there would be nobody using the online voting application anymore until the next contest. As a preparation for the upcoming events next year, the 100-character summaries should be kept and the S3 bucket which contains the high-resolution photos should remain.

In this scenario, which of the following is the best option to meet the above requirement?

(view) 1 0 1 00:02:30

1. Set the DeletionPolicy on the S3 resource declaration in the CloudFormation template to Retain. 2. Set the RDS resource declaration DeletionPolicy to Snapshot.

1. Set the DeletionPolicy on the S3 resource to Snapshot. 2. Set the DeletionPolicy on the RDS resource to Snapshot.

For both the RDS and S3 resource types on the CloudFormation template, set the DeletionPolicy to Retain.

1. Enable Cross-Region Replication (CRR) in the S3 bucket to maintain a copy of all the S3 objects. 2. Set the DeletionPolicy for the RDS instance to Snapshot.

TD claims that the correct banswer is A, I don’t think that the question is correct. To say that you will “keep” S3 and say you will “maintain” the RDS is saying the same thing for both S3 and RDS. If that is the case, then the correct answer should either to use

DeletionPolicy with Retain or use DeletionPolicy with Snapshot. Some of your questions are not correcxt.

Hello GGL,

Thanks for writing us a feedback.

I read the question and I can’t seem to find the part where it mentioned “keep” the S3 and “maintain” the RDS based on what you have said. Could you clarify this part?

You can’t just go on labeling a question incorrect without proper justification GGL.

Also, you have said, “then the correct answer should either to use DeletionPolicy with Retain or use DeletionPolicy with Snapshot.”

>> This statement is wrong. You can’t have either of these answers as correct because Amazon S3 does not support DeletionPolicy with Snapshot.

Let me know your thoughts.

Regards,

Carlo
