[Web 2][AWS] IAM MFA
Your company has decided that certain users should have Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) enabled for their sign-in credentials. A newly hired manager has a Gemalto MFA device that he used in his earlier company. He has approached you to configure it for his AWS account.

A startup has reserved On-Demand Capacity Reservations for the Amazon EC2 instances they use for running analytics.

As part of the best practices for DevOps, all your infrastructure is deployed using CloudFormation. This includes EBS volumes. When the CloudFormation stacks are deleted, it is mandatory to keep a snapshot of the EBS volumes for backup and compliance purposes.
How can you achieve this using CloudFormation?
Ref:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-properties-ec2-ebs-volume.html
Ans:
Use DeletionPolicy=Snapshot
To control how AWS CloudFormation handles the EBS volume when the stack is deleted, set a deletion policy for your volume. You can choose to retain the volume, to delete the volume, or to create a snapshot of the volume.
Here is the sample YAML:
NewVolume:
Type: AWS::EC2::Volume
Properties:
Size: 100
Encrypted: true
AvailabilityZone: !GetAtt Ec2Instance.AvailabilityZone
Tags:
- Key: MyTag
Value: TagValue
DeletionPolicy: Snapshot
