Your EC2-Based Multi-tier application

includes a monitoring instance that periodically makes application -level read only requests of various application components and if any of those fail more than three times 30 seconds calls CloudWatch lo fire an alarm, and the alarm notifies your operatio

ns team by email and SMS of a possible application health problem. However, you also need to watch the watcher -the monitoring instance itself – and be notified if it becomes unhealthy.

Which of the following is a simple way to achieve that goal?

A. Run a

nother monitoring instance that pings the monitoring instance and fires a could watch alarm mat notifies your operations team should the primary monitoring instance become unhealthy.

B. Set a CloudWatch alarm based on EC2 system and instance status checks

and have the alarm notify your operations team of any detected problem with the monitoring instance.

C. Set a CloudWatch alarm based on the CPU utilization of the monitoring instance and have the alarm notify your operations team if C r the CPU usage excee

ds 50% few more than one minute: then have your monitoring application go into a CPU-bound loop should it Detect any application problems.

D. Have the monitoring instances post messages to an SOS queue and then dequeue those messages on another instance sh

ould the queue cease to have new messages, the second instance should first terminate the original monitoring instance start another backup monitoring instance and assume (he role of the previous monitoring instance and beginning adding messages to the SQS

queue.
