Question

Difficulty: MediumDefine the benefits of the AWS Cloud

An international digital news publisher wants to launch its content delivery application for readers across South America, Europe, and Asia to ensure low latency. Additionally, the publisher wants to focus its resources on developing software features rather than managing physical facilities, server racks, and utilities like cooling and electricity.

Which two benefits of the AWS Cloud directly support this publisher’s requirements? (Select TWO.)

  1. Go global in minutesAnswer
  2. Stop spending money running and maintaining data centersAnswer
  3. C
    Trade variable expense for capital expense to stabilize billing
  4. D
    Implement tightly coupled monolithic application designs to reduce complexity
  5. E
    Stop guessing capacity by permanently over-provisioning server infrastructure

Answer

The correct options are the benefits of deploying globally to minimize latency ('Go global in minutes') and eliminating the management of physical infrastructure ('Stop spending money running and maintaining data centers').
The correct options are 'Go global in minutes' and 'Stop spending money running and maintaining data centers'. The news publisher's need to deploy services closer to global users (South America, Europe, and Asia) for low latency is addressed by 'Go global in minutes', which leverages the AWS global infrastructure. The need to avoid managing physical facilities, power, cooling, and hardware rack operations is addressed by 'Stop spending money running and maintaining data centers', as AWS assumes ownership of physical infrastructure management.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the requirements in the scenario.
The news publisher needs to achieve low latency across South America, Europe, and Asia, and wants to avoid managing physical facilities, server racks, and utilities.
This establishes the target goals to map against the 6 benefits of the AWS Cloud.
2
Map the requirement for low latency across multiple continents to an AWS benefit.
Deploying applications globally with minimal latency maps to the benefit of 'Go global in minutes'.
AWS infrastructure is spread globally across many Regions, allowing fast deployment to multiple locations.
3
Map the requirement to avoid physical hardware, racks, and utility management to an AWS benefit.
Avoiding physical facilities, cooling, power, and server rack management maps to the benefit of 'Stop spending money running and maintaining data centers'.
AWS handles all underlying physical infrastructure management, allowing clients to focus on business and development.
