AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 491

A company wants to set up a secure network connection from on premises to the AWS Cloud within 1 week.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. AWS Direct Connect
• B. Amazon VPC
• C. AWS Site-to-Site VPN
• D. Edge location

Correct answer: C

Explanation

AWS Site-to-Site VPN can be provisioned and configured within minutes over the public internet, making it the ideal choice for a one-week deployment timeline. In contrast, AWS Direct Connect requires physical fiber connections that often take several weeks or months to establish. Amazon VPC is a logical network container rather than a connectivity solution, and Edge locations are used for content delivery, not secure hybrid networking.
