Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 topic 1 question 491 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02
Question #: 491
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 Questions]

A company is developing a latency-sensitive application. Part of the application includes several AWS Lambda functions that need to initialize as quickly as possible. The Lambda functions are written in Java and contain initialization code outside the handlers to load libraries, initialize classes, and generate unique IDs.

Which solution will meet the startup performance requirement MOST cost-effectively?

  • A. Move all the initialization code to the handlers for each Lambda function. Activate Lambda SnapStart for each Lambda function. Configure SnapStart to reference the $LATEST version of each Lambda function.
  • B. Publish a version of each Lambda function. Create an alias for each Lambda function. Configure each alias to point to its corresponding version. Set up a provisioned concurrency configuration for each Lambda function to point to the corresponding alias.
  • C. Publish a version of each Lambda function. Set up a provisioned concurrency configuration for each Lambda function to point to the corresponding version. Activate Lambda SnapStar for the published versions of the Lambda functions.
  • D. Update the Lambda functions to add a pre-snapshot hook. Move the code that generates unique IDs into the handlers. Publish a version of each Lambda function. Activate Lambda SnapStart for the published versions of the Lambda functions.

While option B improves startup performance, it is generally more expensive than SnapStart because it keeps environments warm continuously.

Option D is right This solution provides a good balance between performance and code organization. By moving the code that generates unique IDs into the handlers, you keep the initialization code out of the way, but still make it accessible when needed. The pre-snapshot hook allows you to run some initialization code before the Lambda function is executed, which can be useful for tasks like generating unique IDs. Publishing a version of each Lambda function and activating SnapStart ensures that the functions are running with the latest code and optimizations.

For those who think option C is correct: as dzidis commented, "SnapStart does NOT support PROVISIONED CONCURRENCY" https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/snapstart.html

Selected Answer: D
D is correct and as dzidis referred to AWS document, you can't use both provisioned concurrency and SnapStart for the same function version. Therefore, C can't be a correct option. Refer to this section of document for more details: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/snapstart.html#snapstart-concurrency

You can't use both SnapStart and provisioned concurrency on the same function version. Therefore cannot be C. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/snapstart.html

Selected Answer: D
D Combining provisioned concurrency with SnapStart is redundant While provisioned concurrency reduces cold start latency, it is more costly compared to SnapStart because it keeps a set number of instances warm and ready to handle requests, even when not in use.

Selected Answer: C
Provisioned concurrency – This is the number of pre-initialized execution environments allocated to your function. These execution environments are ready to respond immediately to incoming function requests. Provisioned concurrency is useful for reducing cold start latencies for functions. Configuring provisioned concurrency incurs additional charges to your AWS account.
