An Auto Scaling group processes SQS jobs. Average processing time is 10 seconds, and acceptable average queue wait is 120 seconds. CPU utilization is low because workers wait on external I/O. Which TWO choices provide an appropriate scaling signal and initial target? (Choose TWO.)
- Scale on average CPU utilization alone because low CPU proves no backlog exists.
- Use visible queue messages divided by the number of in-service worker instances as a backlog-per-instance metric.
- Use an initial target of approximately 12 visible messages per worker, then validate it against observed workload behavior.
- Scale down to zero whenever the queue has messages but average CPU is below 20%.
- Set the backlog target to 1,200 messages per instance by multiplying wait time by processing time.
