AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 892

What is the scope of a VPC within the AWS network?

Answer options

• A. A VPC can span all Availability Zones globally.
• B. A VPC must span at least two subnets in each AWS Region.
• C. A VPC must span at least two edge locations in each AWS Region.
• D. A VPC can span all Availability Zones within an AWS Region.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

An Amazon VPC is a regional resource that is confined to a single AWS Region and cannot span across multiple regions globally. Within that specific region, the VPC can encompass all of its Availability Zones by defining subnets in each zone. It does not natively span edge locations, nor is it mandated to have multiple subnets upon creation.
