Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional topic 1 question 518 discussion

A company that is new to AWS reports it has exhausted its service limits across several accounts that are on the Basic Support plan. The company would like to prevent this from happening in the future.
What is the MOST efficient way of monitoring and managing all service limits in the company's accounts?

  • A. Use Amazon CloudWatch and AWS Lambda to periodically calculate the limits across all linked accounts using AWS Trusted Advisor, provide notifications using Amazon SNS if the limits are close to exceeding the threshold.
  • B. Reach out to AWS Support to proactively increase the limits across all accounts. That way, the customer avoids creating and managing infrastructure just to raise the service limits.
  • C. Use Amazon CloudWatch and AWS Lambda to periodically calculate the limits across all linked accounts using AWS Trusted Advisor, programmatically increase the limits that are close to exceeding the threshold.
  • D. Use Amazon CloudWatch and AWS Lambda to periodically calculate the limits across all linked accounts using AWS Trusted Advisor, and use Amazon SNS for notifications if a limit is close to exceeding the threshold. Ensure that the accounts are using the AWS Business Support plan at a minimum.

This solution requires a paid plan (Business at the minimum). "The stack uses AWS Support APIs which are not available under the free developer plan. For more information, refer to https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/plans" Source: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/solutions/latest/quota-monitor-for-aws/plan-your-deployment.html

D - You'll need business support plan for most functionality. - In fact, with "basic" support, you may have trouble even getting a ticket logged! Ran into this scenario recently. Sure - basic checks are available in the trusted advisor console - However, you can't report on them using cloudwatch etc

AWS Documentation says below. If you have a Basic or Developer Support plan, you can use the Trusted Advisor console to access all checks in the Service Limits category and six checks in the Security category. If you have a Business, Enterprise On-Ramp, or Enterprise Support plan, you can use the Trusted Advisor console and the AWS Support API to access all Trusted Advisor checks. Based on this, the Correct answer should be A.

Changing to D. Reason explained below. It's very tricky question. Yes, we basic support, you can use trusted advisor console to access all checks in service limit. However, for the given usecase, we need to have the service/quota monitoring automatically using lambda which will use aws trusted advisor via api calls. So correct answer should be D.

From "Trusted Advisor" page : "AWS Basic Support and AWS Developer Support customers can access core security checks and all checks for service quotas." I think it should be A. (sample solution : https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/implementations/limit-monitor/)
