AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate SOA-C02 — Topic 1 Question 20

Question

A company uses an AWS CloudFormation template to provision an Amazon EC2 instance and an Amazon RDS DB instance. A SysOps administrator must update the template to ensure that the DB instance is created before the EC2 instance is launched. What should the SysOps administrator do to meet this requirement?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The correct answer is B. Option B: Add the DependsOn attribute to the EC2 instance resource, and provide the logical name of the RDS resource. Amazon EC2 provides resizable virtual servers when you need full control of the operating system. Amazon RDS is a managed relational database that handles patching, backups and failover.
