AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 298

Which AWS Cloud deployment model uses AWS Outposts as part of the application deployment infrastructure?

Answer options

• A. On-premises
• B. Serverless
• C. Cloud-native
• D. Hybrid

Correct answer: D

Explanation

AWS Outposts extends AWS infrastructure and services to an on-premises location, creating a seamless connection between local environments and the public AWS Cloud, which represents a hybrid cloud deployment model. While it operates on-premises physically, it is managed by AWS as part of a hybrid infrastructure, unlike purely on-premises, serverless, or cloud-native models that do not combine local and public cloud resources in this specific manner.
