Question 1 of 5

• Move to a larger instance type in the same AZ.
• Run instances in at least two AZs, with data kept off the instances in a managed, multi-AZ service.
• Move everything to us-east-1 because it has more AZs.
• Turn on detailed monitoring for the instance.

Question 2 of 5

• Billing data is only visible in us-east-1, and the console is in another Region.
• IAM users can never see billing data; only the root user can.
• The root user has not turned on IAM user and role access to billing information.

Question 3 of 5

• Storing the table’s data redundantly across Availability Zones in the Region.

• Turning on point-in-time recovery for the table.

Question 4 of 5

• Add --dry-run to the command.
• Run the script only as the root user so that every action is logged.
• Pass an explicit --profile and stop the script unless aws sts get-caller-identity returns the expected account ID.
• Set --output text so that errors are easier to read.
