AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate SOA-C02 — Topic 1 Question 184

Question

A company has an application that runs only on Amazon EC2 Spot Instances. The instances run in an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group with scheduled scaling actions. However, the capacity does not always increase at the scheduled times, and instances terminate many times a day. A SysOps administrator must ensure that the instances launch on time and have fewer interruptions. Which action will meet these requirements?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A. The correct answer is A. Option A: Specify the capacity-optimized allocation strategy for Spot Instances. Add more instance types to the Auto Scaling group. Auto Scaling adjusts capacity automatically to match demand, improving availability and cost efficiency. Spot Instances use spare capacity at a large discount, ideal for fault-tolerant or interruptible workloads.
