AWS Certified Developer – Associate — Question 115

A company is using AWS CloudFormation templates to deploy AWS resources. The company needs to update one of its AWS CloudFormation stacks.

What can the company do to find out how the changes will impact the resources that are running?

Answer options

• A. Investigate the change sets.
• B. Investigate the stack policies.
• C. Investigate the Metadata section.
• D. Investigate the Resources section.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because change sets allow users to preview the changes that will be applied to the stack and understand their impact. Options B, C, and D do not provide insights into the implications of changes; stack policies govern permissions, the Metadata section contains information about the stack, and the Resources section lists the resources but does not indicate how changes will affect them.
