Amazon AWS Certified Developer Associate Exam (page: 13)
Amazon AWS Certified Developer - Associate DVA-C02
Updated on: 05-Mar-2026

A developer has designed an application to store incoming data as JSON files in Amazon S3 objects. Custom business logic in an AWS Lambda function then transforms the objects, and the Lambda function loads the data into an Amazon DynamoDB table. Recently, the workload has experienced sudden and significant changes in traffic. The flow of data to the DynamoDB table is becoming throttled.
The developer needs to implement a solution to eliminate the throttling and load the data into the DynamoDB table more consistently.
Which solution will meet these requirements?

  1. Refactor the Lambda function into two functions. Configure one function to transform the data and one function to load the data into the DynamoDB table. Create an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue in between the functions to hold the items as messages and to invoke the second function.
  2. Turn on auto scaling for the DynamoDB table. Use Amazon CloudWatch to monitor the table's read and write capacity metrics and to track consumed capacity.
  3. Create an alias for the Lambda function. Configure provisioned concurrency for the application to use.
  4. Refactor the Lambda function into two functions. Configure one function to store the data in the DynamoDB table. Configure the second function to process the data and update the items after the data is stored in DynamoDB. Create a DynamoDB stream to invoke the second function after the data is stored.

Answer(s): A



A developer is creating an AWS Lambda function in VPC mode. An Amazon S3 event will invoke the Lambda function when an object is uploaded into an S3 bucket. The Lambda function will process the object and produce some analytic results that will be recorded into a file. Each processed object will also generate a log entry that will be recorded into a file.
Other Lambda functions, AWS services, and on-premises resources must have access to the result files and log file. Each log entry must also be appended to the same shared log file. The developer needs a solution that can share files and append results into an existing file.
Which solution should the developer use to meet these requirements?

  1. Create an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system. Mount the EFS file system in Lambda. Store the result files and log file in the mount point. Append the log entries to the log file.
  2. Create an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) Multi-Attach enabled volume. Attach the EBS volume to all Lambda functions. Update the Lambda function code to download the log file, append the log entries, and upload the modified log file to Amazon EBS.
  3. Create a reference to the /tmp local directory. Store the result files and log file by using the directory reference. Append the log entry to the log file.
  4. Create a reference to the /opt storage directory. Store the result files and log file by using the directory reference. Append the log entry to the log file.

Answer(s): A



A company has an AWS Lambda function that processes incoming requests from an Amazon API Gateway API. The API calls the Lambda function by using a Lambda alias. A developer updated the Lambda function code to handle more details related to the incoming requests. The developer wants to deploy the new Lambda function for more testing by other developers with no impact to customers that use the API.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

  1. Create a new version of the Lambda function. Create a new stage on API Gateway with integration to the new Lambda version. Use the new API Gateway stage to test the Lambda function.
  2. Update the existing Lambda alias used by API Gateway to a weighted alias. Add the new Lambda version as an additional Lambda function with a weight of 10%. Use the existing API Gateway stage for testing.
  3. Create a new version of the Lambda function. Create and deploy a second Lambda function to filter incoming requests from API Gateway. If the filtering Lambda function detects a test request, the filtering Lambda function will invoke the new Lambda version of the code. For other requests, the filtering Lambda function will invoke the old Lambda version. Update the API Gateway API to use the filtering Lambda function.
  4. Create a new version of the Lambda function. Create a new API Gateway API for testing purposes. Update the integration of the new API with the new Lambda version. Use the new API for testing.

Answer(s): A



A company uses AWS Lambda functions and an Amazon S3 trigger to process images into an S3 bucket. A development team set up multiple environments in a single AWS account.
After a recent production deployment, the development team observed that the development S3 buckets invoked the production environment Lambda functions. These invocations caused unwanted execution of development S3 files by using production Lambda functions. The development team must prevent these invocations. The team must follow security best practices.
Which solution will meet these requirements?

  1. Update the Lambda execution role for the production Lambda function to add a policy that allows the execution role to read from only the production environment S3 bucket.
  2. Move the development and production environments into separate AWS accounts. Add a resource policy to each Lambda function to allow only S3 buckets that are within the same account to invoke the function.
  3. Add a resource policy to the production Lambda function to allow only the production environment S3 bucket to invoke the function.
  4. Move the development and production environments into separate AWS accounts. Update the Lambda execution role for each function to add a policy that allows the execution role to read from the S3 bucket that is within the same account.

Answer(s): B



A developer is creating an application. New users of the application must be able to create an account and register by using their own social media accounts.
Which AWS service or resource should the developer use to meet these requirements?

  1. IAM role
  2. Amazon Cognito identity pools
  3. Amazon Cognito user pools
  4. AWS Directory Service

Answer(s): C



A social media application uses the AWS SDK for JavaScript on the frontend to get user credentials from AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS). The application stores its assets in an Amazon S3 bucket. The application serves its content by using an Amazon CloudFront distribution with the origin set to the S3 bucket.
The credentials for the role that the application assumes to make the SDK calls are stored in plaintext in a JSON file within the application code. The developer needs to implement a solution that will allow the application to get user credentials without having any credentials hardcoded in the application code.
Which solution will meet these requirements?

  1. Add a Lambda@Edge function to the distribution. Invoke the function on viewer request. Add permissions to the function's execution role to allow the function to access AWS STS. Move all SDK calls from the frontend into the function.
  2. Add a CloudFront function to the distribution. Invoke the function on viewer request. Add permissions to the function's execution role to allow the function to access AWS STS. Move all SDK calls from the frontend into the function.
  3. Add a Lambda@Edge function to the distribution. Invoke the function on viewer request. Move the credentials from the JSON file into the function. Move all SDK calls from the frontend into the function.
  4. Add a CloudFront function to the distribution. Invoke the function on viewer request. Move the credentials from the JSON file into the function. Move all SDK calls from the frontend into the function.

Answer(s): A



An ecommerce website uses an AWS Lambda function and an Amazon RDS for MySQL database for an order fulfillment service. The service needs to return order confirmation immediately.
During a marketing campaign that caused an increase in the number of orders, the website's operations team noticed errors for “too many connections” from Amazon RDS. However, the RDS DB cluster metrics are healthy. CPU and memory capacity are still available.
What should a developer do to resolve the errors?

  1. Initialize the database connection outside the handler function. Increase the max_user_connections value on the parameter group of the DB cluster. Restart the DB cluster.
  2. Initialize the database connection outside the handler function. Use RDS Proxy instead of connecting directly to the DB cluster.
  3. Use Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) FIFO queues to queue the orders. Ingest the orders into the database. Set the Lambda function's concurrency to a value that equals the number of available database connections.
  4. Use Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) FIFO queues to queue the orders. Ingest the orders into the database. Set the Lambda function's concurrency to a value that is less than the number of available database connections.

Answer(s): B



A company stores its data in data tables in a series of Amazon S3 buckets. The company received an alert that customer credit card information might have been exposed in a data table on one of the company's public applications. A developer needs to identify all potential exposures within the application environment.
Which solution will meet these requirements?

  1. Use Amazon Athena to run a job on the S3 buckets that contain the affected data. Filter the findings by using the SensitiveData:S3Object/Personal finding type.
  2. Use Amazon Macie to run a job on the S3 buckets that contain the affected data. Filter the findings by using the SensitiveData:S3Object/Financial finding type.
  3. Use Amazon Macie to run a job on the S3 buckets that contain the affected data. Filter the findings by using the SensitiveData:S3Object/Personal finding type.
  4. Use Amazon Athena to run a job on the S3 buckets that contain the affected data. Filter the findings by using the SensitiveData:S3Object/Financial finding type.

Answer(s): B
