[All AWS-SysOps Questions]

A website uses Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) in front of several Amazon EC2 instances backed by an Amazon RDS database. The content is dynamically generated for visitors of a webpage based on their geographic location. and is updated daily. Some of the generated objects are large in size and are taking longer to download than they should, resulting in a poor user experience.
Which approach will improve the user experience?

  • A. Implement Amazon ElastiCache to cache the content and reduce the load on the database.
  • B. Enable an Amazon CloudFront distribution with Elastic Load Balancing as a custom origin.
  • C. Use Amazon S3 to store and deliver the content.
  • D. Enable Auto Scaling for the EC2 instances so that they can scale automatically.

Selected Answer: B
By enabling an Amazon CloudFront distribution, you can create a content delivery network (CDN) that caches the content closer to the users' geographic locations. CloudFront will store the frequently accessed objects in edge locations, reducing the latency and improving the download speed for users. Elastic Load Balancing can be configured as a custom origin for CloudFront, allowing it to pull content from the EC2 instances.

Selected Answer: B
i go for B What is the difference between AWS ElastiCache and CloudFront? What Is Amazon ElastiCache? A Beginner-Friendly Guide AWS ElastiCache vs. Amazon CloudFront seeks to boost the performance of web applications too. But, unlike ElastiCache, it acts as a Content Delivery Network (CDN) — which speeds up the delivery of web-based assets through endpoint caches that are positioned close to the traffic source.

I would go with B: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/amazon-cloudfront-support-for-custom-origins/ So ELB can be a custom origin + Caching large objects globally on edge locations.

How I understood it is that CloudFront is for s3 and ElastiCache is for RDS. Since we are talking about RDS and nowhere does it mention s3 in the question, I go with A.

B "You can now create a CloudFront distribution using a custom origin. Each distribution will can point to an S3 or to a custom origin. This could be another storage service, or it could be something more interesting and more dynamic, such as an EC2 instance or even an Elastic Load Balancer" https://aws.amazon.com/es/blogs/aws/amazon-cloudfront-support-for-custom-origins/

B is correct I initially thought A but then I read the following thread. So much mumbo jumbo in the question to trick you. Let's just remember that cloudfront improves user experience and that's what the question asked https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55930379/is-it-better-to-locate-cloudfront-in-front-of-alb-regardless-of-content-type-a-u/55941743#55941743
