AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate SOA-C02 — Topic 1 Question 336

Question

ASysOps administrator configures an application to run on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) in a simple scaling Auto Scaling group with the default settings. The Auto Scaling group is configured to use the RequestCountPerTarget metric for scaling. The SysOps administrator notices that the RequestCountPerTarget metric exceeded the specified limit twice in 180 seconds. How will the number of EC2 instances in this Auto Scaling group be affected in this scenario?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The correct answer is B. Option B: The Auto Scaling group will launch one EC2 instance and will wait for the default cooldown period before launching another instance. Auto Scaling adjusts capacity automatically to match demand, improving availability and cost efficiency. Amazon EC2 provides resizable virtual servers when you need full control of the operating system.
