Selected Answer: D
AWS Outposts is designed for workloads that need to remain on-premises due to latency requirements, where customers want that workload to run seamlessly with the rest of their other workloads in AWS. AWS Local Zones are a new type of AWS infrastructure designed to run workloads that require single-digit millisecond latency, like video rendering and graphics intensive, virtual desktop applications. Not every customer wants to operate their own on-premises data center, while others may be interested in getting rid of their local data center entirely. Local Zones allow customers to gain all the benefits of having compute and storage resources closer to end-users, without the need to own and operate their own data center infrastructure. (D) AWS Outposts would be the best fit here. Since the client is migrating only the workloads on AWS while (B) AWS Local Zone wants to get rid of hosting its on-prem data center.

It is C. Here's why AWS Wavelength is designed specifically to reduce the latency between devices and applications hosted on AWS by placing AWS compute and storage services at the edge of the 5G network. This means that the application can be hosted closer to the user or device, which reduces the time it takes for data to travel between the application and the user or device. By reducing latency, AWS Wavelength provides a more responsive user experience for latency-sensitive applications. In this scenario, the manufacturing company has a critical application that is sensitive to latency and interruptions in connectivity. Hosting the application on AWS Wavelength would ensure that the application is hosted closer to the user or device, reducing the time it takes for data to travel between the application and the user or device. This would help to minimize latency and interruptions in connectivity, which is critical for the performance of the application.

I think it is B. Reason is that although outposts would mostly solve it, the text states: "A manufacturing company has a critical application that runs at a remote site that has a slow internet connection" . The slow internet connection is the problem, doing Outpost won't fix this. Local Zone will ...

The company wants to migrate the workload to AWS. The application is sensitive to latency and interruptions in connectivity. LOCAL ZONE DOESN'T EXIT EVERY TIME. OUTPOST HAS CAPABILITY TO MIGRATE WORKLOAD FROM ON-PREM TO AWS SO ANSWER IS D

where does it say it has to migrate workload from on-prem to aws? Within a local zone it will be already in AWS. Local Zone solves the issue, AWS outpost solves legal issues of moving data outside of customer perimeter/security, leaving to AWS the duty to secure it (like public government data moving to a private company data center).

If the site has slow connectivity, how would Local zone help? It's closer but the first hop would still suffer. With outpost, you can put some workload in AWS provided rack: AWS Outposts is a hybrid IT service that lets you run AWS services locally in your organization.

"... has a slow internet connection.". The Outpost requires a high-speed internet connection to work. AWS Local Zones is the only viable option for this scenario.

Deliver high-quality experience for interactive applications that require low latency to your users. Build and deploy applications close to end users in AWS Local Zones across the world to enable real-time gaming, live streaming, augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), virtual workstations, independent software vendor (ISV) application acceleration, and more. check : https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/localzones/ AWS Outposts → AWS Outposts bring AWS infrastructure on-premises, which is useful for applications needing full AWS service integration at a local data center. However, they require a high-speed internet connection to function optimally, which is a limitation for this company's situation. which is not the case here is >> remote site

AWS Outposts bring native AWS services, infrastructure, and operating models to virtually any data center, co-location space, or on-premises facility. This allows you to run applications with low latency and local data processing needs, ensuring minimal latency and interruptions in connectivity for your critical applications.

It's B AWS LOCAL ZONES... it has 3 uses ... Run latency sensitive applications closer to end users n data sources, simplify hybrid cloud migration n meet data residency requirements.. Whereas AWS OUTPOST it's low latency but not for mostly sensitive data.... So the keypoint there is SENSITIVE

This is a very interesting question. My choice would be AWS outpost as it offers hosting on premises application with very low latency with AWS provided hardware. So the infrastructure remains on premise but the workload runs on AWS.

Selected Answer: C
C. AWS Wavelength would be the most appropriate choice. AWS Wavelength brings AWS services to telecommunication networks' edge locations, reducing latency for applications that require real-time responsiveness. This is particularly beneficial for applications sensitive to latency and interruptions in connectivity, making it suitable for scenarios where the application needs to be close to the end-users.

AWS Outposts is a fully managed service that extends AWS infrastructure, services, APIs, and tools to virtually any data center, co-location space, or on-premises facility. It is designed for situations where there is a need for low latency and local data processing. By bringing AWS services directly to the on-premises location, AWS Outposts can effectively address the need for minimal latency and reduce the challenges associated with poor internet connectivity.

Stop the bs. Correct answer here is C. AWS wavelength. AWS Local Zones extends AWS infrastructure to specific geographic locations to reduce latency for applications that require single-digit millisecond latency. While AWS Local Zones could potentially reduce latency, AWS Outposts specifically enables running AWS infrastructure on-premises, ensuring minimal latency and reducing reliance on the internet for critical applications like the one in question. Considering the sensitivity to latency and interruptions in connectivity, AWS Wavelength would be the more appropriate choice. AWS Wavelength brings AWS services to the edge of the 5G network, reducing latency for applications that require ultra-low latency. Answer is C. AWS wavelength.

D The question asks for the lowest possible latency, keeping that in mind Outposts is better than Local Zone because AWS sets up a set of applications in *clients data center itself*. (company sets up Starbucks on campus) And in case of Local Zones, AWS sets up its own small data center (with limited services) in a locality where there are a number of corporate customers. (Starbucks independently sets up near the company due to high demand) This video explains it beautifully in the first 3 min (including the Starbucks analogy) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pa8TGAPXDSQ
