An operations engineer notices errors in one AWS Region and wants a single place to see whether an AWS service event is affecting resources in their own account. Which AWS resource is designed to show this account-specific service health information?
- AAWS Trusted Advisor, which checks the account against best practices for cost, security, performance and fault tolerance
- BAWS whitepapers, the technical documents that explain AWS architecture patterns, security guidance and design best practices
- CAWS Partner Network, the global programme of consulting and technology partners that help customers build on AWS
- DAWS Health Dashboard, which presents alerts and guidance about AWS events affecting the resources in your account Correct
Why A is wrong: Trusted Advisor recommends best-practice improvements over time, but it is not the place to watch a live AWS service event affecting your account.
Why B is wrong: Whitepapers are reference reading on architecture and best practice, so they give background knowledge rather than real-time status of your account resources.
Why C is wrong: The Partner Network connects customers with third-party firms for help, so it has nothing to do with reporting live AWS service health for your account.
Why D is correct: The AWS Health Dashboard shows a personalised view of service events and their effect on your own resources, which is exactly what the engineer needs during an incident.
