A company needs to implement disaster recovery for a critical application that runs in a single AWS Region. The application's users interact with a web frontend that is hosted on Amazon EC2 Instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The application writes to an Amazon RD5 tor MySQL DB instance. The application also outputs processed documents that are stored in an Amazon S3 bucket The company's finance team directly queries the database to run reports. During busy periods, these queries consume resources and negatively affect application performance. A solutions architect must design a solution that will provide resiliency during a disaster. The solution must minimize data loss and must resolve the performance problems that result from the finance team's queries. Which solution will meet these requirements?
A. Migrate the database to Amazon DynamoDB and use DynamoDB global tables. Instructthe finance team to query a global table in a separate Region. Create an AWS Lambdafunction to periodically synchronize the contents of the original S3 bucket to a new S3bucket in the separate Region. Launch EC2 instances and create an ALB in the separateRegion. Configure the application to point to the new S3 bucket.
B. Launch additional EC2 instances that host the application in a separate Region. Add theadditional instances to the existing ALB. In the separate Region, create a read replica ofthe RDS DB instance. Instruct the finance team to run queries ageist the read replica. UseS3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) from the original S3 bucket to a new S3 Docket in theseparate Region. During a disaster, promote the read replace to a standalone DB instance.Configure the application to point to the new S3 bucket and to the newly project readreplica.
C. Create a read replica of the RDS DB instance in a separate Region. Instruct the financeteam to run queries against the read replica. Create AMIs of the EC2 instances mat hostthe application frontend- Copy the AMIs to the separate Region. Use S3 Cross-RegionReplication (CRR) from the original S3 bucket to a new S3 bucket in the separate Region.During a disaster, promote the read replica to a standalone DB instance. Launch EC2instances from the AMIs and create an ALB to present the application to end users.Configure the application to point to the new S3 bucket.
D. Create hourly snapshots of the RDS DB instance. Copy the snapshots to a separateRegion. Add an Amazon Elastic ache cluster m front of the existing RDS database. CreateAMIs of the EC2 instances that host the application frontend Copy the AMIs to the separateRegion. Use S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) from the original S3 bucket to a new S3bucket in the separate Region. During a disaster, restore The database from the latestRDS snapshot. Launch EC2 Instances from the AMIs and create an ALB to present theapplication to end users. Configure the application to point to the new S3 bucket

A company needs to improve the reliability ticketing application. The application runs on an Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) cluster. The company uses Amazon CloudFront to servo the application. A single ECS service of the ECS cluster is the CloudFront distribution's origin. The application allows only a specific number of active users to enter a ticket purchasing flow. These users are identified by an encrypted attribute in their JSON Web Token (JWT). All other users are redirected to a waiting room module until there is available capacity for purchasing. The application is experiencing high loads. The waiting room modulo is working as designed, but load on the waiting room is disrupting the application's availability. This disruption is negatively affecting the application's ticket sale Transactions. Which solution will provide the MOST reliability for ticket sale transactions during periods of high load? '
A. Create a separate service in the ECS cluster for the waiting room. Use a separatescaling configuration. Ensure that the ticketing service uses the JWT info-nation andappropriately forwards requests to the waring room service.
