Question 1

You are designing a global routing architecture for a multi-region application.

The application consists of a frontend web app (HTTP/HTTPS) and a backend UDP-based gaming server. You need to route users to the closest region for both the web app and the gaming server. If a region fails, traffic must automatically fail over to the next closest region.

Which load balancing solution should you recommend?

Identify the protocol requirements. HTTP + UDP means you cannot use a Layer 7 proxy like Front Door. You must use a DNS-based router.
