DVA-C02 Exam Dumps : AWS Certified Developer - Associate

This solution meets the requirements because it uses a PostgreSQL-compatible database that can secure and regularly rotate database credentials without requiring additional programming overhead. Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL is a relational database service that is compatible with PostgreSQL and offers high performance, availability, and scalability. AWS Secrets Manager is a service that helps you protect secrets needed to access your applications, services, and IT resources. You can store database credentials in AWS Secrets Manager and use them to access your Aurora PostgreSQL database. You can also enable automatic rotation of your secrets according to a schedule or an event. AWS Secrets Manager handles the complexity of rotating secrets for you, such as generating new passwords and updating your database with the new credentials. Using Amazon DynamoDB for the database will not meet the requirements because it is a NoSQL database that is not compatible with PostgreSQL. Using AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store for storing and rotating database credentials will require additional programming overhead to integrate with your database.

Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) are encrypted snapshots of EC2 instances that can be used to launch new instances. The developer can create new AMIs from the existing instances and specify encryption parameters. The developer can copy the encrypted AMIs to the destination Region and use them to create a new application stack. The developer can delete the unencrypted AMIs after the encryption process is complete. This solution will meet the encryption requirement and allow the developer to expand the application to run in the destination Region.

This solution will meet the requirements by using a rolling with additional batch deployment method, which deploys the new version of the application to a separate group of instances and then shifts traffic to those instances in batches. This way, the application maintains full capacity and avoids service interruption during deployment, as well as minimizes the cost of additional resources that support the deployment. Option A is not optimal because it will use an all at once deployment method, which deploys the new version of the application to all instances simultaneously, which may cause service interruption or downtime during deployment. Option C is not optimal because it will use a blue/green deployment method, which deploys the new version of the application to a separate environment and then swaps URLs with the original environment, which may incur more costs for additional resources that support the deployment. Option D is not optimal because it will use an immutable deployment method, which deploys the new version of the application to a fresh group of instances and then redirects traffic to those instances, which may also incur more costs for additional resources that support the deployment.
