Question 1 (choose 2)

(A cloud engineer needs to notify the response team whenever a high-security web server responds
with a 403 Forbidden error. Which two steps can enable this functionality? Choose 2 answers.)

  1. Option A:
    Define a metric filter for Apache logs in CloudWatch
  2. Option B:
    Bind a Lambda function to an Apache process
  3. Option C:
    Create an alarm for the metric filter to deliver alerts using Amazon SNS
  4. Option D:
    Send alarms from the Lambda function using Amazon SQS
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A, C

To notify a response team when a high-security web server returns a 403 Forbidden error, two key
steps are required. First, define a metric filter for Apache logs in CloudWatch to detect the 403 error
code within the log data. This involves setting up a filter pattern to match "403" in the Apache access
logs. Second, create an alarm for the metric filter and configure it to deliver alerts using Amazon SNS,
which supports email or other notifications to the response team. The WGU Cloud Deployment and
Operations Study Guide (Section 4.2, CloudWatch Logs and Alarms) confirms that metric filters and
SNS-integrated alarms are the standard approach for monitoring and alerting on log-based events.
Options B and D are incorrect as they involve unnecessary or unsupported configurations (e.g.,
binding Lambda to Apache or using SQS for alarms).

Question 2

(Which action must be used to create a metric filter in the Amazon CloudWatch console?)

  1. Option A:
    Enable an alarm
  2. Option B:
    Define a trace
  3. Option C:
    Select a log group
  4. Option D:
    Specify a stream
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

To create a metric filter in the Amazon CloudWatch console, the first step is to select a log group from
which the log data will be analyzed. A log group contains log streams, and metric filters are applied
to the log data within these groups to extract metrics based on patterns. The WGU Cloud
Deployment and Operations Study Guide (Section 4.2, CloudWatch Logs) specifies that the process
begins by navigating to the CloudWatch console, selecting a log group, and then defining the filter
pattern. Actions like enabling an alarm, defining a trace, or specifying a stream are subsequent or
unrelated steps.
