Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 83 discussion

A company's dynamic website is hosted using on-premises servers in the United States. The company is launching its product in Europe, and it wants to optimize site loading times for new European users. The site's backend must remain in the United States. The product is being launched in a few days, and an immediate solution is needed.
What should the solutions architect recommend?

  • A. Launch an Amazon EC2 instance in us-east-1 and migrate the site to it.
  • B. Move the website to Amazon S3. Use Cross-Region Replication between Regions.
  • C. Use Amazon CloudFront with a custom origin pointing to the on-premises servers.
  • D. Use an Amazon Route 53 geoproximity routing policy pointing to on-premises servers.

***CORRECT*** C. Use Amazon CloudFront with a custom origin pointing to the on-premises servers. Amazon CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN) that speeds up the delivery of static and dynamic web content, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, and videos. By using CloudFront, the company can distribute the content of their website from edge locations that are closer to the users in Europe, reducing the loading times for these users. To use CloudFront, the company can set up a custom origin pointing to their on-premises servers in the United States. CloudFront will then cache the content of the website at edge locations around the world and serve the content to users from the location that is closest to them. This will allow the company to optimize the loading times for their European users without having to move the backend of the website to a different region.

***WRONG*** Option A (launch an Amazon EC2 instance in us-east-1 and migrate the site to it) would not address the issue of optimizing loading times for European users. Option B (move the website to Amazon S3 and use Cross-Region Replication between Regions) would not be an immediate solution as it would require time to set up and migrate the website. Option D (use an Amazon Route 53 geoproximity routing policy pointing to on-premises servers) would not be suitable because it would not improve the loading times for users in Europe.

S3 doesn't support dynamic website hosting. Therefore, can be ruled out.

Selected Answer: C
Immediate solution is C A: Requires site migration so won't be immediate B: Dynamic site cannot work from S3 D: Geoproximity routing policy finds a server close to the user so this makes no sense C: Not ideal but best option given the "immediate" requirement as CloudFront is a CDN so it will cache whatever is possible as close to the user giving best performance in this case (i.e. when compared to other options)

Selected Answer: C
The key reasons are: CloudFront can cache static content close to European users using edge locations, improving site performance. The custom origin feature allows seamlessly integrating the CloudFront CDN with existing on-premises servers. No changes are needed to the site backend or servers. CloudFront just acts as a globally distributed cache. This can be set up very quickly, meeting the launch deadline. Other options like migrating to EC2 or S3 would require more time and changes. CloudFront is an easier lift. Route 53 geoproximity routing alone would not improve performance much without a CDN.

Selected Answer: C
C. This solution leverages the global network of CloudFront edge locations to cache and serve the website's static content from the edge locations closest to the European users. A. Hosting the website in a single region would still result in increased latency for European users accessing the site. B. Moving the website to S3 and implementing Cross-Region Replication would distribute the website's content across multiple regions, including Europe. S3 is primarily used for static content hosting, and it does not provide server-side processing capabilities necessary for dynamic website functionality. D. Using a geoproximity routing policy in Route 53 would allow you to direct traffic to the on-premises servers based on the geographic location of the users. However, this option does not optimize site loading times for European users as it still requires them to access the website from the on-premises servers in the United States. It does not leverage the benefits of content caching and edge locations for improved performance.

C. S3 Cross region Replication minimize latency but also copies objects across Amazon S3 buckets in different AWS Regions(data has to remain in origin thou) so B wrong. Route 53 geo, does not help reducing the latency.
