Question 9 of 65 | ← Chapter 1

Q9. Organizers for a global event want to put daily reports online as static HTML pages. The pages are expected to generate millions of views from users around the world The files are stored in an Amazon S3 bucket.A solutions architect has been asked to design an efficient and effective solution. Which action should the solutions architect take to accomplish this?

Correct Answer: D. Use Amazon CloudFront with the S3 bucket as its origin

Explanation

Amazon CloudFront can be used to cache the files in edge locations around the world and this will improve the performance of the webpages.To serve a static website hosted on Amazon S3, you can deploy a CloudFront distribution using one of these configurations:Using a REST API endpoint as the origin with access restricted by an origin access identity (OAI) Using a website endpoint as the origin with anonymous (public) access allowed Using a website endpoint as the origin with access restricted by a Referer header CORRECT:"Use Amazon CloudFront with the S3 bucket as its origin" is the correct answer. INCORRECT: "Generate presigned URLs for the files" is incorrect as this is used to restrict access which is not a requirement. INCORRECT: "Use cross-Region replication to all Regions" is incorrect as this does not provide a mechanism for directing users to the closest copy of the static webpages. INCORRECT: "Use the geoproximity feature of Amazon Route 53" is incorrect as this does not include a solution for having multiple copies of the data in different geographic locations.References:https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/cloudfront-serve-static-website/ Save time with our exam-specific cheat sheets:https://digitalcloud.training/certification-training/aws-solutions-architect-associate/networking-and- content- delivery/amazon-cloudfront/
