A company has deployed a highly available SAP NetWeaver system on SAP HANA into a VPC. The system is distributed across multiple Availability Zones within a single AWS Region. SAP NetWeaver is running on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP. SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension is configured to protect SAP ASCS and ERS instances and uses the overlay IP address concept. The SAP shared files /sapmnt and /usr/sap/trans are hosted on an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system. The company needs a solution that uses already-existing private connectivity to the VPC. The SAP NetWeaver system must be accessible through the SAP GUI client tool. Which solutions will meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

ADeploy an Application Load Balancer. Configure the overlay IP address as a target.
BDeploy a Network Load Balancer. Configure the overlay IP address as a target. (correct answer)
CUse an Amazon Route 53 private zone. Create an A record that has the overlay IP address as a target.
DUse AWS Transit Gateway. Configure the overlay IP address as a static route in the transit gateway route table. Specify the VPC as a target. (correct answer)
EUse a NAT gateway. Configure the overlay IP address as a target.

Reveal answer & explanation

Correct answer: B, D

The correct answer is B, D. Option B: Deploy a Network Load Balancer. Configure the overlay IP address as a target. Option D: Use AWS Transit Gateway. Configure the overlay IP address as a static route in the transit gateway route table. Specify the VPC as a target.

Explanation

A Network Load Balancer handles very high throughput TCP/UDP traffic with ultra-low latency and static IPs.
