Question 9 of 75 | ← Chapter 3

Q234. A global manufacturing company plans to migrate the majority of its applications to AWS. However, the company is concerned about applications that need to remain within a specific country or in the company's central on-premises data center because of data regulatory requirements or requirements for latency of single-digit milliseconds. The company also is concerned about the applications that it hosts in some of its factory sites, where limited network infrastructure exists. The company wants a consistent developer experience so that its developers can build applications once and deploy on premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid architecture. The developers must be able to use the same tools, APIs, and services that are familiar to them. Which solution will provide a consistent hybrid experience to meet these requirements'

Correct Answer: C. Install AWS Outposts for the applications that have data regulatory requirements or requirements for latency of single-digit milliseconds. Use AWS Snowball Edge Compute Optimized devices to host the workloads in the factory sites

Explanation

To provide a consistent hybrid experience for the global manufacturing company while meeting data regulatory requirements and latency requirements, a solutions architect should recommend using AWS Outposts for the applications that need to remain within specific countries or in the central on-premises data center. AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized devices can be used to retain data on premises for those applications. For factory sites where limited network infrastructure exists, AWS Snowball Edge Compute Optimized devices can be used to host workloads. Deploying AWS Wavelength in each location can provide low-latency access to AWS services. This approach allows developers to use consistent tools, APIs, and services while ensuring data residency and low-latency access. Therefore, option C is the correct answer. Option A suggests migrating all applications to the closest AWS Region that is compliant and setting up an AWS Direct Connect connection between the central on-premises data center and AWS. While this might work, it does not meet the requirement of keeping certain applications within specific countries or on- premises, and it may not provide low enough latency for some applications. Option B suggests using AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized devices for applications with data regulatory requirements or latency requirements and deploying AWS Wavelength to host workloads in factory sites. While this approach provides low-latency access and data residency, it does not address the requirement of keeping certain applications on-premises or in specific countries. Option D suggests migrating applications with data regulatory requirements or latency requirements to an AWS Local Zone and deploying AWS Wavelength to host workloads in factory sites. While this approach provides low-latency access, it does not address the requirement of keeping certain applications on- premises or in specific countries. Therefore, the best solution is to use AWS Outposts for applications that need to remain within specific countries or in the central on-premises data center, use AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized devices to retain data on premises, use AWS Snowball Edge Compute Optimized devices to host workloads in factory sites, and deploy AWS Wavelength in each location for low-latency access. This approach provides a consistent hybrid experience while meeting data residency and latency requirements.
