AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 — Topic 1 Question 451

Question

A company is designing an AWS environment for a manufacturing application. The application has been successful with customers, and the application's user base has increased. The company has connected the AWS environment to the company's on-premises data center through a 1 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection. The company has configured BGP for the connection. The company must update the existing network connectivity solution to ensure that the solution is highly available, fault tolerant, and secure. Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: D. The correct answer is D. Option D: Add a static AWS Site-to-Site VPN as a secondary path to secure data in transit and to provide resilience for the Direct Connect connection. AWS Direct Connect provides a dedicated, consistent private network link between on premises and AWS. AWS Site-to-Site VPN provides encrypted connectivity between on premises and a VPC. This option delivers the requirement at the lowest cost.
