Amazon Web Services Updated SAP-C02 Exam Questions and Answers by omari

Using an SQS queue to store events and invoke the Lambda function will decouple the third-party service calls and ensure that all the calls are eventually completed. SQS allows you to store messages in a queue and process them asynchronously, which eliminates the need for the application to wait for a response from the third-party service. The messages will be stored in the SQS queue until they are processed by the Lambda function, even if the Lambda function is currently unavailable or busy. This will ensure that all the calls are eventually completed, even if there are delays or errors.

AWS Step Functions state machines can also be used to pass events to the Lambda function, but it would require additional management and configuration to set up the state machine, which would increase operational overhead.

Amazon EventBridge rule can also be used to pass events to the Lambda function, but it would not provide the same level of decoupling and reliability as SQS.

Using Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic to store events and Invoke the Lambda function, is similar to SQS, but SNS is a publish-subscribe messaging service and SQS is a queue service. SNS is used for sending messages to multiple recipients, SQS is used for sending messages to a single recipient, so SQS is more appropriate for this use case.

However A's explanation is incorrect -https://docs.aws.amazon.com/organizations/latest/userguide/orgs_manage_policies_scps.html

"SCPs are similar to AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) permission policies and use almost the same syntax. However, an SCP never grants permissions."

SCPs alone are not sufficient to granting permissions to the accounts in your organization. No permissions are granted by an SCP. An SCP defines a guardrail, or sets limits, on the actions that the account's administrator can delegate to the IAM users and roles in the affected accounts. The administrator must still attach identity-based or resource-based policies to IAM users or roles, or to the resources in your accounts to actually grant permissions. The effective permissions are the logical intersection between what is allowed by the SCP and what is allowed by the IAM and resource-based policies.
