AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 422

Which AWS design principle emphasizes the reduction of interdependencies between components of an application?

Answer options

• A. Scalability
• B. Loose coupling
• C. Automation
• D. Caching

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Loose coupling is a fundamental AWS design principle that reduces interdependencies between components, ensuring that a failure or change in one service does not disrupt others. While scalability addresses handling increased load, automation reduces manual intervention, and caching optimizes data retrieval speeds, none of these directly focus on isolating component dependencies.
