AWS Certified Associate DVA-C02 Syllabus Exam Questions Answers

The solution that will solve this problem is to create and inspect the Lambda dead-letter queue. Troubleshoot the failed functions. Reprocess the events. This way, the developer can identify and fix any issues that caused the Lambda function to fail when invoked asynchronously by API Gateway. The developer can also reprocess any orders that were not processed due to failures. The other options either do not address the root cause of the problem, or do not help recover from failures.

The UnprocessedKeys element indicates that the BatchGetItem operation did not process all of the requested items in the current response. This can happen if the response size limit is exceeded or if the table’s provisioned throughput is exceeded. To handle this situation, the developer should retry the batch operation with exponential backoff and randomized delay to avoid throttling errors and reduce the load on the table. The developer should also use an AWS SDK to make the requests, as the SDKs automatically retry requests that return UnprocessedKeys.

The requirement is specifically to have ECS automatically restore the last known good deployment when a new deployment fails, while the service is using the rolling update deployment type. Amazon ECS supports this through the deployment circuit breaker with the option to rollback on failures.

When enabled, the deployment circuit breaker monitors the deployment and detects failure conditions such as tasks repeatedly failing health checks, not reaching steady state, or being unable to start successfully. With rollback enabled, ECS automatically stops the failing deployment and reverts the service to the most recently completed (stable) task definition, restoring service stability without manual intervention.

Option D matches exactly: keep the rolling deployment type and enable circuit breaker + rollback. This is minimal change and directly addresses the behavior observed.

Options A and B are unrelated: service autoscaling adjusts desired count based on metrics and does not roll back failed deployments.

Option C could also achieve rollback behavior, but switching to blue/green introduces additional components (AWS CodeDeploy integration, target groups, and traffic shifting), which is unnecessary when the requirement can be met within rolling deployments.

Therefore, enabling the ECS deployment circuit breaker with rollback on failures for a rolling deployment is the correct solution.
