Alibaba Cloud Certified Associate – Cloud Computing — Question 41

Your website has high volume of traffic and sudden spikes for a very short time. In this scenario, ______________ can manage traffic peak efficiently and maintain a consistent user experience.

Answer options

• A. Server Load Balancer
• B. Auto Scaling
• C. RDS
• D. VPC

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Auto Scaling is the right choice because it automatically adjusts the number of active servers based on traffic demands, allowing the system to handle sudden spikes efficiently. Server Load Balancer optimizes traffic distribution but does not scale resources itself. RDS is a database service and does not manage traffic, while VPC is a networking solution that does not address traffic load directly.
