Question

A social media company runs its application on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The ALB is the origin for an Amazon CloudFront distribution. The application has more than a billion images stored in an Amazon S3 bucket and processes thousands of images each second. The company wants to resize the images dynamically and serve appropriate formats to clients. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C. The correct answer is C. Option C: Use a Lambda@Edge function with an external image management library. Associate the Lambda@Edge function with the CloudFront behaviors that serve the images. AWS Lambda runs code without provisioning servers and scales automatically, which minimizes operational overhead. Amazon CloudFront caches content at edge locations to reduce latency and offload origins.
