AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate SOA-C03 Practice Question

A company runs a production MySQL 8.0 database on Amazon RDS. Performance Insights is already enabled with the default 7-day retention. Operations wants to receive an automated notification whenever the database load (average active sessions) stays above 8 for at least 5 consecutive minutes. The solution must use only managed AWS features and require the least administration. Which action will meet these requirements?

  • Enable Enhanced Monitoring and configure a CloudWatch alarm that notifies SNS when CPUUtilization exceeds 80 percent for 5 minutes.

  • Create a CloudWatch alarm on the Performance Insights metric DBLoad with a 1-minute period, threshold of 8, and 5 evaluation periods, and configure the alarm to publish to an Amazon SNS topic.

  • Set up an RDS event subscription for a high-load Performance Insights event and have Amazon RDS send the event to an SNS topic.

  • Schedule an EventBridge rule that triggers an AWS Lambda function every minute to query the Performance Insights API, and have the function publish to SNS if DBLoad is greater than 8.
