Selected Answer: B
You cannot directly use or access PrivateLink. You have to you use VPC endpoint that uses PrivateLink. Damn AWS should not have mentioned about pvt link ever at all...

To remove the confusion between B and C , read the wording of the question, it asks what we need to do for EC2 instances ( in VPC ). Answer is B.

I think C is the safer answer, privatelink will give a private connection to S3 https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws-privatelink-for-amazon-s3-now-available/

B - VPC Gateway is correct. PrivateLink is meant to expose services within VPC

It's B. C also seems correct because a Gateway VPC endpoint is a indeed a part of AWS PrivateLink, as you can see in the path of this url: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/privatelink/vpce-gateway.html However, a Gateway VPC endpoint is created in the VPC, it is not attached to an EC2 instance. So it can't be C.

Hello all, Please check this link. It mentions that the scenario mentioned in the question is achieved by both however, to use VPC Gateway we still need a PrivateLink. So answer C seems to be more close. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/endpoint-services-overview.html

Guys, why can this not be C? Isnt C more proper in that its saying configure the connection whereas B is only saying, build a gateway endpoint, in order to complete this connection you would need to associate this endpoint with a route table entry.
