Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional topic 1 question 906 discussion

A company wants to use a hybrid cloud architecture between an on-premises data center and AWS. The company already has deployed a multi-account structure in AWS Organizations while following the AWS Well-Architected Framework.
Due to strict security requirements, connectivity between the data center and AWS must be encrypted in transit. Only a single entry point into AWS is permitted from the data center. The data center must be able to access all the AWS accounts.
Which solution meets these requirements?

  • A. Connect the AWS accounts with AWS Transit Gateway. Establish an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection with the data center, and attach the connection to the transit gateway. Route traffic from the data center to all AWS accounts.
  • B. Connect the AWS accounts with VPC peering. Establish an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection with the data center. Route traffic from the data center to all AWS accounts.
  • C. Connect the AWS accounts with VPC peering. Establish an AWS Direct Connect connection to the closest AWS Region. Route traffic from the data center to all AWS accounts.
  • D. Connect the AWS accounts with AWS Transit Gateway. Establish an AWS Direct Connect connection to the closest AWS Region, and attach the connection to the transit gateway. Route traffic from the data center to all AWS accounts.

Selected Answer: A
traffic goes from on prem -> direct connect -> transit gateway and then the transit gateway routing tables decide on account D is wrong. If its marked as the correct answer, good chance its wrong for exam topics.

A. 1. For the transit to be encrypted, Site to Site VPN is required i.e. IPSec. 2. For the single point of entry from DC, only Transit GW will work. Because VPC Peering does not allow traffic to transit i.e. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/peering/invalid-peering-configurations.html

Answer - A. Requirement - "connectivity between the data center and AWS must be encrypted in transit" means it's VPN. VPN: "VPN connections use IPsec to establish encrypted network connectivity between your intranet and an Amazon VPC over the public internet." Direct connect: By DEFAULT traffic is unencrypted. Of course, we can encrypt by additional step, but it's NOT mentioned in answer-D. Hence, correct answer is A.

VPN goes through internet and hence need encryption. DX is direct connection from on-prem to AWS. Using https provided the needed encryption. My answer is D
