A Developer Works in an Environment with Multiple AWS Accounts

question 346

Multiple Choice

A developer works in an environment with multiple AWS accounts that have AWS Lambda functions processing the same 100 KB payloads. The developer wants to centralize the point of origin of the payloads to one account and have all the Lambda functions be invoked whenever the initiating event occurs in the parent account. How can the developer design the workflow in the MOST efficient way, so all the multi-account Lambda functions get invoked when the event occurs?

• A) Create a Lambda function in the parent account and use cross-account IAM roles with the AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) AssumeRole API call to make AWS Lambda invoke the API call to invoke all the cross-account Lambda functions.
• B) Subscribe all the multi-account Lambda functions to an Amazon SNS topic and make a SNS Publish API call with the payload to the SNS topic.
• C) Set up an Amazon SQS queue with the queue policy permitting the ReceiveMessage action for multi-account Lambda functions. Then send the payload to the SQS queue using the sqs:SendMessage permission and poll the queue using multi-account Lambda functions.
• D) Use a worker on an Amazon EC2 instance to poll for the payload event. Invoke all Lambda functions using the Lambda Invoke API after using cross-account IAM roles with the AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) AssumeRole API call.
