AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 Practice Question

An organization is running a web service on a fleet of compute instances within a cloud environment. The service needs fine-grained access to a NoSQL database to perform select data retrieval operations. What is the MOST secure method to provision this access while adhering to best practices for credentials management?

  • Utilize a user management service to create unique users for every instance, granting them individual permissions to access the database.

  • Generate a fixed database user with credentials stored in the web service's configuration files on each instance.

  • Manually rotate and distribute new API keys periodically to the instances and update the service configuration accordingly.

  • Attach an instance profile associated with a role that has the necessary permissions to the compute instances.
