A media streaming company delivers content globally. They are using Amazon CloudFront with an S3 origin. Users in certain remote regions are experiencing high latency because the content is not cached at their local edge location, resulting in frequent origin fetches to the central S3 bucket. How can the architect improve performance and reduce the load on the S3 origin?

Answer options:

Enable CloudFront Origin Shield.

Deploy S3 buckets in every AWS region and use Route 53 latency routing.

Increase the TTL (Time to Live) of the CloudFront cache to 1 year.

Use AWS Global Accelerator in front of CloudFront.

How to approach this question

Identify the CloudFront feature designed to minimize origin load.

Full Answer

A.Enable CloudFront Origin Shield.✓ Correct

Enable CloudFront Origin Shield.

Amazon CloudFront Origin Shield is an additional caching layer that helps reduce the load on your origin and improve performance. When multiple edge locations request the same content, Origin Shield fetches it once from the origin and serves it to all requesting edge locations.

Common mistakes

Confusing Global Accelerator with CloudFront features.
