Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional topic 1 question 810 discussion

A media company is hosting a high-traffic news website on AWS. The website's front end is based solely on HTML and JavaScript. The company loads all dynamic content by using dynamic asynchronous JavaScript requests to a dedicated backend infrastructure.
The front end runs on four Amazon EC2 instances as web servers. The dynamic backend runs in containers on an Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon
ECS) cluster that uses an Auto Scaling group of EC2 instances. The ECS tasks are behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB).
Which solutions should a solutions architect recommend to optimize costs? (Choose two.)

  • A. Migrate the front end of the website to an Amazon S3 bucket Deploy an Amazon CloudFront distribution. Set the S3 bucket as the distribution's origin.
  • B. Deploy an Amazon CloudFront distribution. Configure the distribution to use the ALB endpoint as the origin.
  • C. Migrate the front-end services to the ECS cluster. Increase the minimum number of nodes in the Auto Scaling group.
  • D. Turn on Auto Scaling for the front-end EC2 instances. Configure a new listener rule on the ALB to serve the front end.
  • E. Migrate the backend of the website to an Amazon S3 bucket. Deploy an Amazon CloudFront distribution. Set the S3 bucket as the distribution's origin.

it should be B&D. If the answer requires only one option then only A would be perfect. But the question requires two combine steps, then the combination of B&D makes most sense. It is typical Cloudfront + ALB + Auto Scaling solution. The combine of A & B can be redundant for B. Cloudfront for service API seems does not appear anywhere on AWS solution.

AB => javascript is js file which will be executed on client browser, so it is static file.

Selected Answer: AB
A: The front end servers are static and can be migrated to S3. Then create a CloudFront deployment and use S3 and an origin. B: The backend is dynamic content, which is behind and ALB. You set this ALB as an origin in the distribution. AWS exam questions are like this sometimes, asking you to do something similar in two different answers, like create a CloudFront distribution. But you have to put them into context, that AWS wants you to know that a CloudFront distribution is needed in both answers and that you need one or more origins. If they just said in answer B that you needed to create a second origin, then it's easier to know that answer A is right since it asked you to create the deployment with an origin. Anyways, AB is correct and the cheapest option to go with.

Sorry, typed "deployment" a couple times when I meant to type "distribution". Can't edit posts once you submit. :)

If both A and B, don't you have TWO CloudFront distributions? That's not reference... normally one with a static+dynamic origin would be correct. (?)

Selected Answer: AB
AB E - eliminated since backend is is dynamic - cant use s3 website. Since S3 is cheaper than running instances on ASG: C and D are eliminated for the static front-end content. So the other answer is B - It will not save a lot of money since its a dynamic content but its the only valid answer.

If you migrate the front end to S3, why do you need the front-end EC2 instances?

I dont understand answers here. How B can be correct? cloudfront is for frontend content not for backend content

If you combine A and B as a solution, it will make sense because the front end will be migrated to S3 and CloudFront will be used and then B comes in. I hope that helps. I had initial thinking as well at first.
