Q1. Which of the 'Six Advantages of Cloud Computing' described by AWS refers to replacing large upfront infrastructure spending with pay-as-you-go pricing?
A. Trade capital expense for variable expense
B. Stop guessing capacity
C. Increase speed and agility
D. Go global in minutes
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: A. Trade capital expense for variable expense
AWS's six advantages include trading capital expenditure (buying data centres and servers upfront) for variable operating expense (paying only for what you use). This lowers the barrier to entry because there is no large upfront investment. The other options describe different advantages such as elastic scaling and global reach.
Q2. A business based in Australia has customers who require their data to remain within Australian borders for regulatory reasons. What should the business do when choosing where to deploy AWS resources?
A. Deploy resources in the Region closest to AWS headquarters in the US
B. Select the AWS Region located in Australia to keep data within that geography
C. Rely on CloudFront edge locations, since edge caching satisfies all data residency laws
D. Use any Region, since AWS automatically replicates data globally by default
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B. Select the AWS Region located in Australia to keep data within that geography
AWS does not replicate customer data across Regions automatically; data stays in the Region it is deployed to unless the customer configures cross-Region replication. Choosing the Australian Region (e.g. ap-southeast-2 Sydney or ap-southeast-4 Melbourne) satisfies data residency requirements because customers control where their data is stored.
Q3. An IAM policy has an explicit 'Deny' statement for an action, and a separate policy has an 'Allow' statement for the same action on the same resource. What is the result when a user with both policies attempts the action?
A. The action is allowed because Allow always overrides Deny
B. The action is denied, because an explicit Deny always overrides an Allow
C. AWS prompts the administrator to resolve the conflict manually
D. The most recently attached policy takes precedence
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B. The action is denied, because an explicit Deny always overrides an Allow
IAM policy evaluation logic follows the rule that an explicit Deny always wins over any Allow, regardless of how many Allow statements exist. This ensures deny statements act as a reliable guardrail even amid multiple attached policies.
