Amazon Exam SOA-C02 Topic 7 Question 85 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's SOA-C02 exam
Question #: 85
Topic #: 7
[All SOA-C02 Questions]

A company has created a NAT gateway in a public subnet in a VPC. The VPC also contains a private subnet that includes Amazon EC2 instances. The EC2 instances use the NAT gateway to access the internet to download patches and updates. The company has configured a VPC flow log for the elastic network interface of the NAT gateway. The company is publishing the output to Amazon CloudWatch Logs.

A SysOps administrator must identify the top five internet destinations that the EC2 instances in the private subnet communicate with for downloads.

What should the SysOps administrator do to meet this requirement in the MOST operationally efficient way?

I think using Amazon S3 with Athena would also be a good option to analyze the flow logs.

That makes sense, CloudWatch Logs Insights can give us a deeper look into the data.

But wouldn't using CloudTrail Insights events be better for this specific task?

You guys are probably right. But I'm curious, why wouldn't we want to use AWS CloudTrail Insights events or Amazon CloudFront standard logs? Are those not as suitable for this use case?

*laughs* Yeah, no kidding. Sometimes it feels like we're drowning in log data, doesn't it? But CloudWatch Logs Insights makes it a lot easier to find the needle in the haystack.

Exactly, Merilyn. CloudWatch Logs Insights is really the way to go here. It's designed for analyzing log data like the VPC flow logs, and it's super easy to use. *chuckles* Just don't forget to bring your magnifying glass - you might need it to read all those logs!

Good question, Lina. CloudTrail is more focused on tracking API calls and user activity, so it might not be the best fit here. And CloudFront logs would only show traffic going through CloudFront, not directly to the internet.
