AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 397

A company needs to run a workload that requires low-latency access to an on-premises data center. The company wants a fully managed service to extend its existing VPC to local resources.

Which AWS service or resource should the company use?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

AWS Outposts is a fully managed service that extends AWS infrastructure, services, APIs, and tools to virtually any on-premises data center or co-location space, providing the required low-latency access to local resources. In contrast, AWS Snowball Edge is intended for data migration and edge computing in disconnected environments, while Amazon Connect is a cloud-based contact center and Amazon WorkLink is a mobile workforce tool.
