AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 443

A company hosts its website on Amazon EC2 instances. The company needs to ensure that the website reaches a global audience and provides minimum latency to users.

Which AWS service should the company use to meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Amazon Route 53
• B. Amazon CloudFront
• C. Elastic Load Balancing
• D. AWS Lambda

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Amazon CloudFront is a global content delivery network (CDN) service that caches website content at edge locations worldwide, significantly reducing latency for a global audience. While Amazon Route 53 manages DNS routing and Elastic Load Balancing distributes incoming traffic, neither provides global content caching. AWS Lambda is a serverless compute service and is not designed for content delivery acceleration.
