You need to announce emergency downtime for a production AWS web application. This downtime notification requires different sets of instructions for different devices. All of the application users signed up to receive SNS notifications from the downtime topic when they began using the application and they are currently subscribed to this topic. What are appropriate ways for you to provide timely, device-specific instructions to end users when announcing this downtime?
- Send a single message, but customize the text in the SNS message field so that each device gets only the information that is appropriate for them.
- Send multiple messages to the topic and ask users to please ignore message formats that don’t pertain to them.
- Create a different topic for each subscription type, then send one topic to SMS endpoints and the other topic to email endpoints.
- It’s not possible to send SNS messages manually.
• Send a single message, but customize the text in the SNS message field so that each device gets only the information that is appropriate for them.
You have configured your CI/CD process using CodePipeline, however you want to introduce a manual sign-off and approval process which needs to be completed before a new version of your application is deployed to Production. How can you achieve this?
- Use CodePipeline to handle build, compile, test and packaging activities, then manually start a CodeDeploy job to run an automated deployment of successfully tested code
- Use the CodePipeline Manual Approvals feature
- Configure MFA for CodeDeploy deployments
- Configure two pipelines, one to handle code built and test and one to handle automated deployment. Use SNS and Lambda to trigger the Deployment Pipeline following notification of successful completion of the Build and Test Pipeline
Use the CodePipeline Manual Approvals feature
