  1. Which AWS service provides a global content delivery network (CDN) that caches content at edge locations worldwide?

    Answer: Amazon CloudFront

    Amazon CloudFront is a CDN service that delivers content through a worldwide network of edge locations, reducing latency for end users.

  2. A company wants to improve the availability and performance of their global application by routing users to the nearest healthy AWS endpoint. Which service uses the AWS global network backbone for this?

    Answer: AWS Global Accelerator

    AWS Global Accelerator uses the AWS global network to optimize the path to your application, improving performance and availability by routing traffic through the nearest AWS edge location.

  3. What type of endpoint does AWS PrivateLink provide to access AWS services without traversing the public internet?

    Answer: VPC Endpoint

    AWS PrivateLink uses VPC Endpoints (Interface Endpoints) to enable private connectivity to AWS services directly from your VPC without using internet gateways or NAT devices.

  4. Which Route 53 routing policy would you use to route traffic to the endpoint that has the lowest latency for the user?

    Answer: Latency-based routing

    Latency-based routing in Route 53 directs traffic to the AWS region that provides the lowest latency for the end user based on actual measured latency.

  5. An application team needs to distribute incoming HTTP traffic across multiple EC2 instances based on URL path patterns. Which AWS service best fits this need?

    Answer: Application Load Balancer

    Application Load Balancer (ALB) operates at Layer 7 and supports content-based routing, allowing traffic distribution based on URL paths, hostnames, and HTTP headers.

  6. What is the main purpose of an Internet Gateway in a VPC?

    Answer: To provide a target in VPC route tables for internet-routable traffic

    An Internet Gateway serves as a horizontally scaled, redundant VPC component that provides a target in route tables for internet-bound traffic and performs NAT for instances with public IPs.

  7. A company wants to resolve domain names for resources within their VPC using a private DNS namespace not accessible from the internet. Which service enables this?

    Answer: Amazon Route 53 Private Hosted Zone

    Amazon Route 53 Private Hosted Zones allow DNS resolution for domain names within one or more VPCs without exposing that DNS information publicly.
