Explanation

A question that asks you to choose TWO valid ways to operate AWS.

  • 1valid ways to operate and manage AWS resourcesWhether the option corresponds to the Console / CLI / SDK
ACorrect

Run commands with the AWS CLI.

Correct. The AWS CLI is a valid way to operate AWS by command from a terminal. It can also be embedded in scripts to automate operations.

BIncorrect

Operate resources directly over AWS Direct Connect.

AWS Direct Connect is a networking service that connects on-premises and AWS with a private connection.

What it provides is a communication path (the route data travels), not an operation interface such as a console or commands for creating or changing resources, so this is incorrect. After connecting, you use the Console / CLI / SDK to operate.

CIncorrect

Bring physical servers directly into an AWS data center.

Customers cannot bring servers into an AWS data center.

It is also not a way to operate resources, so this is incorrect.

DCorrect

Sign in to the AWS Management Console in a browser to operate.

Correct. The AWS Management Console is a valid way to operate and manage AWS graphically from a web browser.

EIncorrect

Ask AWS Support to create the resources for you.

AWS Support is a service that answers technical questions and provides assistance during incidents.

Support does not create or change resources on behalf of the customer; the customer performs operations themselves through the Console / CLI / SDK, so this is incorrect.

Key Takeaway

The three ways to operate AWS are Management Console / CLI / SDK (all of which call APIs). Distinguish that Direct Connect is a connection path and AWS Support is technical assistance, neither of which is an interface for operating resources.
