Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 576 discussion

The correct answer is D API Gateway - Endpoint Types • Edge-Optimized (default): For global clients • Requests are routed through the CloudFront Edge locations (improves latency) • The API Gateway still lives in only one region • Regional: • For clients within the same region • Could manually combine with CloudFront (more control over the caching strategies and the distribution) • Private: • Can only be accessed from your VPC using an interface VPC endpoint (ENI) • Use a resource policy to define access

geographically distributed users + low latency = Edge optimized ednpoint

An edge-optimized API endpoint typically routes requests to the nearest CloudFront Point of Presence (POP), which could help in cases where your clients are geographically distributed. This is the default endpoint type for API Gateway REST APIs. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/api-gateway-api-endpoint-types.html#:~:text=API%20endpoint%20typically-,routes,-requests%20to%20the

Edge-optimized endpoint

Correct D. Edge-optimized API endpoints An edge-optimized API endpoint is best for geographically distributed clients. API requests are routed to the nearest CloudFront Point of Presence (POP). This is the default endpoint type for API Gateway REST APIs.
