Question

A company hosts an application on an Amazon EC2 instance in a single AWS Region. The application requires support for non-HTTP TCP traffic and HTTP traffic. The company wants to deliver content with low latency by leveraging the AWS network. The company also wants to implement an Auto Scaling group with an Elastic Load Balancer. How should a SysOps administrator meet these requirements?

Options

  • ACreate an Auto Scaling group with an Application Load Balancer (ALB).
  • BCreate an Auto Scaling group with an Application Load Balancer (ALB).
  • CCreate an Auto Scaling group with a Network Load Balancer (NLB).
  • DCreate an Auto Scaling group with a Network Load Balancer (NLB).

Explanation

AWS Global Accelerator and Amazon CloudFront are separate services that use the AWS global network and its edge locations around the world. CloudFront improves performance for both cacheable content (such as images and videos) and dynamic content (such as API acceleration and dynamic site delivery). Global Accelerator improves performance for a wide range of applications over TCP or UDP by proxying packets at the edge to applications running in one or more AWS Regions. Global Accelerator is a good fit for non-HTTP use cases, such as gaming (UDP), IoT (MQTT), or Voice over IP, as well as for HTTP use cases that specifically require static IP addresses or deterministic, fast regional failover. Both services integrate with AWS Shield for DDoS protection. https://aws.amazon.com/global-accelerator/faqs/?nc1=h_ls
