ANS-C01 Question 440
Select 2Your organization has deployed a multi-region application using AWS Global Accelerator to improve performance and availability for end-users worldwide. Due to specific regulatory requirements, traffic from users in Europe must only be routed to endpoints in the Frankfurt and London AWS Regions. How can you configure AWS Global Accelerator to meet this requirement?
- A
Create a custom routing accelerator and configure endpoint groups for the Frankfurt and London AWS Regions.
- B
Use geolocation-based routing in Route 53 to ensure traffic from Europe is directed to the Frankfurt and London endpoints.
- C
Tag the Frankfurt and London endpoints with a custom 'Europe' tag and configure AWS Global Accelerator to use endpoint tags for routing.
- D
Add Frankfurt and London AWS Regions to their own endpoint group in the Global Accelerator configuration and use the 'Client IP address' condition to route European traffic.
- E
Use AWS Global Accelerator's geolocation-based traffic dial to configure routing based on user location.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, E
Explanation
AWS Global Accelerator is a service designed to improve application performance and availability. In this scenario, custom routing accelerators and geolocation-based traffic dials are appropriate solutions to ensure regulatory compliance by directing European traffic to the specified Frankfurt and London endpoints. Other options either misunderstand AWS Global Accelerator's capabilities or apply to different services like Route 53.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Custom routing accelerators allow precise control over traffic routing to specific regions, which can meet the requirement to direct European traffic to Frankfurt and London.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect. AWS Route 53 supports geolocation-based routing, but it operates at the DNS level and is not used to configure AWS Global Accelerator.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect. AWS Global Accelerator does not support routing based on custom tags.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. While endpoint groups can be used in AWS Global Accelerator, the 'Client IP address' condition is not a supported configuration for routing specific user traffic.
- E. Correct.
Correct. AWS Global Accelerator supports geolocation-based routing traffic dials, allowing you to control traffic based on user location, which is suitable for this scenario.
