A global gaming company uses Amazon Route 53 to route users to the closest AWS Region. They want to ensure that if an entire region goes offline, users are automatically routed to the next closest healthy region. Which routing policy combination achieves this?

Answer options:

Use Simple routing with health checks.

Use Latency-based routing with Route 53 health checks.

Use Multivalue Answer routing without health checks.

Use Geoproximity routing with a bias of 0.

How to approach this question

Identify the routing policy that dynamically measures distance/speed and supports health checks.

Full Answer

B.Use Latency-based routing with Route 53 health checks.✓ Correct

Use Geolocation routing policies with Route 53 health checks. Configure failover routing as a secondary record.

Latency-based routing directs users to the region with the lowest network latency. When combined with health checks, it automatically routes traffic to the next lowest latency region if the primary fails.

Common mistakes

Choosing Geolocation, which routes based on physical location, not network latency/closeness.
