Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, E
Explanation
To meet the requirements of high bandwidth, low latency, and secure communication, the company should use AWS Direct Connect for a dedicated private connection. By enabling Direct Connect Gateway, they can extend this connection to multiple AWS Regions. Additionally, AWS Transit Gateway offers a scalable solution to manage connectivity between on-premises, multiple VPCs, and Direct Connect, making it an ideal strategy for hybrid cloud architectures.
- A. Correct.
Correct: AWS Direct Connect provides a dedicated, high-bandwidth, and low-latency private connection between the on-premises data center and AWS, meeting the requirements of the scenario.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect: A Site-to-Site VPN connection over the public internet is secure but does not meet the high bandwidth and low latency requirements specified in the scenario.
- C. Correct.
Correct: Direct Connect Gateway allows the company to connect to multiple AWS Regions using a single Direct Connect connection, which is efficient for hybrid cloud architectures.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect: VPC Peering is used for connecting VPCs and is not applicable for connecting an on-premises data center to AWS.
- E. Correct.
Correct: AWS Transit Gateway simplifies and centralizes network management for hybrid environments, allowing the company to manage connectivity between on-premises, multiple VPCs, and Direct Connect efficiently.
