When mapping GDPR requirements to a cloud architecture, which architectural component is most directly responsible for enabling the 'right to erasure' (data deletion)?

Data lifecycle management policy

Which integration pattern is commonly used to connect a PaaS application to an on-premises database in a hybrid architecture?

Public internet without encryption

A financial services firm is extending its on-premises data center to AWS for burst compute capacity. The firm requires predictable low latency and a private, dedicated connection to AWS. The existing WAN uses MPLS. Which connectivity option should the firm choose to meet these requirements?

AWS Site-to-Site VPN over the internet.

AWS Direct Connect with a dedicated 1 Gbps connection.

AWS Client VPN for remote access.

AWS Transit Gateway with a VPN attachment.

A global bank is designing a hybrid cloud architecture for its core banking system. The system must have a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of 15 minutes and a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of 5 minutes. The bank has on-premises data centers in London and Singapore. The bank is considering using AWS for disaster recovery. Which placement strategy best meets the RTO and RPO requirements?

Use AWS regions in the same country as each on-premises data center (e.g., eu-west-2 for London, ap-southeast-1 for Singapore) with synchronous replication.

Use a single AWS region for both data centers and rely on asynchronous replication.

Use on-premises replication only and do not use AWS for disaster recovery.

Use AWS regions close to each data center with synchronous replication and automated failover using AWS Route 53 and AWS Lambda.

What is a key consideration when designing WAN integration for cloud?

Bandwidth and latency requirements

The brand of the coffee machine

The color of the data center walls
