Question 550
Which consideration should still be kept in mind when recommending AWS for this requirement? A business owns a domain name and needs a managed DNS service to route requests to its web endpoint.
Explanation
Correct Answer
DNS does not encrypt the application connection or replace a load balancer. The case involves: A business owns a domain name and needs a managed DNS service to route requests to its web endpoint. The central AWS principle is that amazon Route 53 provides DNS and related routing functions. What matters is: Look for domain-name resolution and supported DNS-based routing policies. Recommended direction: Use Route 53 hosted zones and the required DNS records. Expected indication of success: Clients resolve the domain to the intended endpoint according to the chosen routing. Caveat: DNS does not encrypt the application connection or replace a load balancer.
Incorrect Answers
Security groups control permitted traffic at supported AWS resources and are stateful. In the present case the governing issue is Amazon Route 53 provides DNS and related routing functions, which this does not resolve.
AWS Direct Connect provides a dedicated network connection to AWS through supported connectivity locations. That observation may hold without resolving the relevant issue: DNS does not encrypt the application connection or replace.
Amazon VPC provides logically isolated networking with subnet and routing configuration. It does not verify the requested outcome; here the decisive check concerns DNS does not encrypt the application connection or replace.
