4 drills, 12 questions each. Your readiness score then weights them 30/26/24/20, the way the SAA-C03 guide does.

One question, worked through

This is question 12 of the 12 below, solved in the open — deliberately, so you can judge the questions before you play. The other 11 stay hidden until you answer them, then reveal the same explanation.

Worked example

A video platform streams the same popular files to millions of viewers, and origin S3 data-transfer bandwidth is saturating. Which change reduces origin load while improving playback performance?

  • AMove the bucket to One Zone-IA storage
  • BEnable S3 Transfer Acceleration on the bucket
  • CServe the videos through Amazon CloudFrontCorrect
  • DAdd more read replicas to the origin

Why C

CloudFront caches popular files at edge locations, so repeated views are served from the edge, cutting origin fetches and improving latency. Transfer Acceleration speeds uploads, not viewer downloads, and storage class or replicas do not offload viewer reads.
