A Network Engineer is provisioning a subnet for a load balancer that will sit in front of a fleet of application servers in a private subnet. There is limited IP space left in the VPC CIDR. The application has few users now but is expected to grow quickly to millions of users.
What design will use the LEAST amount of IP space, while allowing for this growth?
A company is building its website on AWS in a single VPC. The VPC has public subnets and private subnets in two Availability Zones. The website has static content such as images. The company is using Amazon S3 to store the content.
The company has deployed a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances as web servers in a private subnet. The EC2 instances are in an Auto Scaling group behind an Application Load Balancer. The EC2 instances will serve traffic, and they must pull content from an S3 bucket to render the webpages. The company is using AWS Direct Connect with a public VIF for on-premises connectivity to the S3 bucket.
A network engineer notices that traffic between the EC2 instances and Amazon S3 is routing through a NAT gateway. As traffic increases, the company's costs are increasing. The network engineer needs to change the connectivity to reduce the NAT gateway costs that result from the traffic between the EC2 instances and Amazon S3.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company wants to analyze TCP traffic to the internet. The traffic originates from Amazon EC2 instances in the company's VPC. The EC2 instances initiate connections through a NAT gateway. The required information includes source and destination IP addresses, ports, and the first 8 bytes of payload of TCP segments. The company needs to collect, store, and analyze all the required data points.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company is deploying a web application into two AWS Regions. The company has one VPC in each Region. Each VPC has three Amazon EC2 instances as web servers behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The company already has configured an Amazon Route 53 public hosted zone for example.com. Users will access the application by using the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of app.example.com.
The company needs a DNS solution that allows global users to access the application. The solution must route the users' requests to the Region that provides the lowest response time. The solution must fail over to the Region that provides the next-lowest response time if the application is unavailable in the initially intended Region.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
All IP addresses within a 10.0.0.0/16 VPC are fully utilized with application servers across two Availability Zones. The application servers need to send frequent UDP probes to a single central authentication server on the Internet to confirm that is running up-to-date packages. The network is designed for application servers to use a single NAT gateway for internal access. Testing reveals that a few of the servers are unable to communicate with the authentication server.
A company wants to migrate its DNS registrar and DNS hosting to Amazon Route 53. The company website receives tens of thousands of visits each day, and the company’s current DNS provider cannot keep up. The company wants to migrate as quickly as possible but cannot tolerate any downtime.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company is in the early stage of AWS Cloud adoption. The company has an application that is running in an on-premises data center in Asia. The company needs to deploy new applications in the us-east-1 Region. The applications in the cloud need connectivity to the on-premises data center.
The company needs to set up a communication channel between AWS and the data center. The solution must improve latency, minimize the possibility of performance impact from transcontinental routing over the public internet, and encrypt data in transit.
Which solution will meet these requirements in the LEAST amount of time?
A company has a public application. The application uses an Application Load Balancer (ALB) that has a target group of Amazon EC2 instances.
The company wants to protect the application from security issues in web requests. The traffic to the application must have end-to-end encryption.
