AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C01) — Question 220

A network engineer needs to monitor internet metrics for an application that is in a VPC. The metrics include user experiences such as health events, latency, and traffic insights.

The network engineer sets up Amazon CloudWatch Internet Monitor for the application. The engineer wants to push the internet health events to a third-party target.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST implementation effort?

Answer options

• A. Create a third-party API endpoint in Amazon EventBridge. Configure internet Monitor to send the events to the third-party API endpoint in EventBridge.
• B. Create a third-party API endpoint in Amazon EventBridge. Create a rule in EventBridge that uses Internet Monitor as the source and the third-party API endpoint in EventBridge as the destination.
• C. Create a third-party API endpoint in internet Monitor. Configure Internet Monitor to send the events to an Amazon S3 bucket. Configure an AWS Lambda function to send the events to the third-party API endpoint in Internet Monitor.
• D. Create a third-party API endpoint in Internet Monitor. Configure Internet Monitor to send the events to the third-party API endpoint in Internet Monitor.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Option B is correct because it efficiently uses Amazon EventBridge to route events from Internet Monitor to the third-party API endpoint with minimal configuration. Option A does not include the necessary rule for event routing, while Options C and D introduce unnecessary complexity by involving S3 and Lambda or by incorrectly sending events to itself.
