In this lesson
Prepare for the SAA-C03 exam (AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate). In this lesson: EC2 instance families, Graviton, and accelerated computing, placement groups, enhanced networking, and EFA, AWS Batch and Amazon EMR, Lambda and container sizing, compute at the edge with Lambda@Edge and Wavelength, and scaling on the right metrics. Includes three original practice questions.
Preview the topics
- A weather simulation runs on forty instances that exchange data constantly, and it needs the lowest possible latency between them. Which placement strategy fits?
- A nightly route calculation needs hundreds of cores for two hours, and the team wants no servers left running afterwards, and no cluster to manage. What should the architect choose?
- A CPU-bound Lambda function that converts delivery photos takes twelve seconds with 128 MB of memory. What is the simplest way to make it faster?
