- A
AWS Direct Connect
- B
AWS VPN
- C

- D
AWS Snowball
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
AWS Direct Connect is the best solution for the company's use case because it provides a dedicated, private connection to AWS, ensuring consistent performance, lower latency, and secure data transfer. While AWS VPN is secure, it relies on the public internet and may not meet the company's performance and latency requirements.
- A. Correct.
AWS Direct Connect provides a dedicated network connection between the on-premises data center and AWS, offering consistent performance, lower latency, and increased security, making it ideal for the company's requirements.
- B. Incorrect.
AWS VPN establishes a secure connection over the public internet, but it does not provide the consistent performance or lower latency required by the company.
- C. Incorrect.
Public Internet is not secure or reliable for transferring sensitive data and does not meet the requirements for performance or latency.
- D. Incorrect.
AWS Snowball is a data transfer device used for physically transferring large amounts of data, not for establishing a continuous, secure network connection.
