SAA-C03 Exam Dumps : AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate (SAA-C03)

AWS advises using serverless event-driven processing to minimize operational burden and scale automatically with demand. Amazon SQS can be directly configured as an event source for AWS Lambda. With this setup, Lambda polls the queue, invokes the function, and processes messages without requiring the customer to manage infrastructure. Scaling is automatic, based on the volume of messages in the queue. Option A (increasing instance size) still leaves scaling and management challenges. Option B reduces cost when idle but does not address scaling. Option D requires manual triggering and does not meet continuous processing requirements. Migrating the script to Lambda (C) fully eliminates the need for instance management, providing scalability, reliability, and reduced operational overhead.

Option Censures dynamic scaling based on demand using a target tracking scaling policy, optimizing costs.

Option Aresults in over-provisioning, leading to higher costs.

Option Bincreases costs by using larger instances.

Option Dis not feasible as instance store volumes are ephemeral and unsuitable for shared storage like EFS.

IAM Identity Center (formerly AWS SSO) is designed for:

Federated access from external directories (e.g., Active Directory, Okta)

Centralized permission management

Support for MFA

Granular control via Attribute-based access control (ABAC)

“IAM Identity Center allows you to manage SSO access to AWS accounts and business applications centrally. You can assign users and groups permissions based on directory attributes such as Region and job role.”

— IAM Identity Center Docs

This option ensures:

Federated, centralized access

Region-specific permissions

MFA and role mapping via existing directory service
