Hello Cloud Learners,
In the process of preparing for the exam, I find examples of questions on the Internet. I will post them here and on my site all topics at once, along with explanations.
I hope this will be helpful to those who want to quickly go over the questions on each topic, as I plan to do.

When working with a published version of the AWS Lambda function, you should note that the _____.

  4. Build an AWS Lambda function that polls to the ElasticBeanstalk environment deployments and create and configure the Amazon ElastiCache cluster.

A developer is building a streamlined development process for Lambda functions related to S3 storage.The developer needs a consistent, reusable code blueprint that can be easily customized to manage Lambda function definition and deployment, the S3 events to be managed and the Identity Access Management (IAM) policies definition.
