Task Statement 2: Design highly available and/or fault-tolerant architectures.

Knowledge of:

  • AWS global infrastructure (for example, Availability Zones, AWS Regions, Amazon Route 53)
  • AWS managed services with appropriate use cases (for example, Amazon Comprehend, Amazon Polly)
  • Basic networking concepts (for example, route tables)
  • Disaster recovery (DR) strategies (for example, backup and restore, pilot light, warm standby, active-active failover, recovery point objective [RPO], recovery time objective [RTO])
  • Distributed design patterns
  • Failover strategies
  • Immutable infrastructure
  • Load balancing concepts (for example, Application Load Balancer)
  • Proxy concepts (for example, Amazon RDS Proxy)
  • Service quotas and throttling (for example, how to configure the service quotas for a workload in a standby environment)
  • Storage options and characteristics (for example, durability, replication)
  • Workload visibility (for example, AWS X-Ray)

Skills in:

  • Determining automation strategies to ensure infrastructure integrity
  • Determining the AWS services required to provide a highly available and/or fault-tolerant architecture across AWS Regions or Availability Zones
  • Identifying metrics based on business requirements to deliver a highly available solution
  • Implementing designs to mitigate single points of failure
  • Implementing strategies to ensure the durability and availability of data (for example, backups)
  • Selecting an appropriate DR strategy to meet business requirements
  • Using AWS services that improve the reliability of legacy applications and applications not built for the cloud (for example, when application changes are not possible)
  • Using purpose-built AWS services forworkloads
