AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional — Question 537

Which of the following is NOT a true statement about Auto Scaling?

Answer options

• A. Auto Scaling can launch instances in different Azs.
• B. Auto Scaling can work with CloudWatch.
• C. Auto Scaling can launch an instance at a specific time.
• D. Auto Scaling can launch instances in different regions.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

An Auto Scaling group is a regional resource and cannot span across multiple AWS Regions, which makes option D the incorrect statement. However, Auto Scaling can indeed launch instances across multiple Availability Zones within a single region, integrate with Amazon CloudWatch for metric-based scaling, and use scheduled scaling to launch instances at specific times.
