AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 872

Which AWS Cloud design principle is a company using when the company implements AWS CloudTrail?

Answer options

• A. Activate traceability.
• B. Use serverless compute architectures.
• C. Perform operations as code.
• D. Go global in minutes.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

AWS CloudTrail enables auditing, security monitoring, and operational troubleshooting by tracking user activity and API usage, which directly aligns with the design principle of activating traceability. The other options, such as using serverless architectures, performing operations as code, and going global in minutes, refer to different architectural and operational principles that do not focus on logging and auditing actions.
