Question

A gaming company is moving its public scoreboard from a data center to the AWS Cloud. The company uses Amazon EC2 Windows Server instances behind an Application Load Balancer to host its dynamic application. The company needs a highly available storage solution for the application. The application consists of static files and dynamic server-side code. Which combination of steps should a solutions architect take to meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A, D. The correct answer is A, D. Option A: Store the static files on Amazon S3. Use Amazon CloudFront to cache objects at the edge. Option D: Store the server-side code on Amazon FSx for Windows File Server. Mount the FSx for Windows File Server volume on each EC2 instance to share the files. Amazon EC2 provides resizable virtual servers when you need full control of the operating system. Amazon S3 provides durable, scalable object storage that is fully managed. Amazon FSx for Windows File Server provides fully managed SMB/Windows shared file storage. By spanning multiple Availability Zones / adding redundancy, this option provides the high availability and resilience required.
