  • A. Create a Network Load Balancer backed by an Auto Scaling group with a UDP listener.
  • B. Create a Network Load Balancer backed by a Spot Fleet with instances in a partition placement group.
  • C. Create a Network Load Balancer backed by the existing servers in different Availability Zones as the target.

I appeared for the exam on 12-Aug and passed. This question appeared in my exam and was confused between C and D and finally chose C based on sgupta-22's explaination. However I think this was a wrong choice and I should have stuck with D.

in C, every time you add/delete a port or IP, you will have to manually change all bastions. So D ASG is the minimal efforts.

I think that correct anwser is c. Two possibility 1. Have 2 bastion host in 2 separate AZs and put them behind the Network Load Balancer and use elastic IP 2. Put one bastion host in one AZ and use Autoscaling group to spin new bastion host in new AZ when primary bastion host fails. We will need to use script to assign EIP to newly spin bastion host. Resiliency? Resource ability to recover from damage or disruption. If I use solution 1, i use only NLB and not Autoscaling group, but if one host is unavailable, NLB, move traffic only in another alive ec2 (This is resiliency(disruption of one ec2)).

As per the question, we need a solution that requires "minimal effort to maintain.". For option C, it requires "manual effort" to bring up the instance in case of failure of instance.

@ Mashesh explain Ans: D Those two points are valid. But the question specifically asks for HA and Resiliency (ability to recover). Resiliency - possible only when you have Auto-Scaling HA - Multiple AZ A. Not Valid B. Not valid - Spot Fleet disruption in service C. Although this option gives HA, but missing resiliency. when instance (Bastion host) goes down in 1 AZ, it needs manual intervention because there is no Auto Scaling.
