AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 49
A company is running critical applications on Amazon EC2 instances. The company needs to ensure its resources are automatically recovered if they become impaired due to an underlying hardware failure.
Which service can be used to monitor and recover the EC2 instances?
Answer options
- A. Amazon EC2 Systems Manager
- B. Amazon Inspector
- C. AWS CloudFormation
- D. Amazon CloudWatch
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Amazon CloudWatch is the correct choice because it provides monitoring and automated recovery capabilities for EC2 instances. The other options, such as Amazon EC2 Systems Manager and AWS CloudFormation, do not specifically address automatic recovery from hardware issues, while Amazon Inspector focuses on security assessments.
