Question 882

A company runs its application by using Amazon EC2 instances and AWS Lambda functions. The EC2 instances run in private subnets of a VPC. The Lambda functions need direct network access to the EC2 instances for the application to work.

The application will run for 1 year. The number of Lambda functions that the application uses will increase during the 1-year period. The company must minimize costs on all application resources.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

    Correct Answer: C

    To meet the requirement of minimizing costs while ensuring direct network access between Lambda functions and EC2 instances in private subnets, a Compute Savings Plan is the best solution. A Compute Savings Plan offers flexibility across different AWS services, including EC2 instances and Lambda functions, providing significant cost savings over on-demand pricing. Connecting the Lambda functions to the private subnets ensures direct access to the EC2 instances, maintaining security and avoiding potential egress costs.

Discussion
Guru4CloudOption: C

Compute Savings Plan: This plan offers significant discounts on Lambda functions compared to on-demand pricing. Since the application will run for a year, a sustained use discount like Compute Savings Plan is ideal. Private Subnets: Lambda functions in private subnets can directly access EC2 instances within the VPC without needing internet access, reducing security risks and potential egress costs.

sheilawuOption: A

In this question has point out "access EC2 instances" within VPC,=> Lambda VPC to an ENI (Elastic network interface) in your account VPC.=>No charge. Therefore I stick with A, Not D.

I am sorry I mean C

I confuse this Question. Instance saving plan is cheaper than compute saving plan. https://aws.amazon.com/savingsplans/compute-pricing/

But composite saving plan discount Automatically applies to Lambda.

Sorry I mean Compute Savings Plan.
