CLF-C01 Exam - Question 6


Which component of the AWS global infrastructure is made up of one or more discrete data centers that have redundant power, networking, and connectivity?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

An Availability Zone is a component of the AWS global infrastructure that consists of one or more discrete data centers with redundant power, networking, and connectivity. These zones are engineered to be isolated from failures in other Availability Zones, providing fault tolerance and high availability for applications and services hosted within AWS. By deploying resources across multiple Availability Zones, organizations can achieve resilience and operational continuity in case of localized failures or outages.

Answer is B. An availability zone can be made of one or multiple datacenters. An AWS region has at least 3 availability zones, that are separated by multiple kilometers. Then, a region has at least 3 datacenters. It cannot be answer A.

An Availability Zone (AZ) is a component of the AWS global infrastructure that is made up of one or more discrete data centers that have redundant power, networking, and connectivity. Each AZ is physically separated from other AZs within a region, and is designed to be fault-tolerant and provide low-latency networking.

The component of the AWS global infrastructure that is made up of one or more discrete data centers that have redundant power, networking, and connectivity is B. Availability Zone. An Availability Zone is a separate data center within a region that has independent power, cooling, and networking, which are connected to other Availability Zones through high-bandwidth, low-latency links. By using multiple Availability Zones, customers can design and operate applications and services that are highly available, fault-tolerant, and scalable.

An Availability Zone (AZ) is a physically separate data center within an AWS Region (option A). Each Availability Zone has its own power source, networking infrastructure, and connectivity. They are designed to be isolated from failures in other Availability Zones within the same Region. The purpose of Availability Zones is to provide fault tolerance and high availability for applications and services hosted in the AWS cloud. By deploying resources across multiple Availability Zones, organizations can ensure that their systems remain operational even if an individual Availability Zone experiences an outage.

An Availability Zone is a single data center or a group of data centers within a Region. If a disaster occurs in one part of the Region, the geographical distance helps to ensure that not all Availability Zones are affected. Availability Zones are located tens of miles apart from each other. This helps them to provide interconnectivity to support the services and applications that run within a Region.

The correct answer is Regions. I dont know why appear Avability Zones as correct answer.

Although you technically can make that argument but an availability zone contains multiple data centers that are interconnected through fiber networks. Thus making AZs the right answer

I would say its AZs. Basically bacause this is the basic definition of an AZ.

JA2018
Oct 27, 2022

https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/regions_az/ An Availability Zone (AZ) is one or more discrete data centers with redundant power, networking, and connectivity in an AWS Region. AZs give customers the ability to operate production applications and databases that are more highly available, fault tolerant, and scalable than would be possible from a single data center. All AZs in an AWS Region are interconnected with high-bandwidth, low-latency networking, over fully redundant, dedicated metro fiber providing high-throughput, low-latency networking between AZs. All traffic between AZs is encrypted. The network performance is sufficient to accomplish synchronous replication between AZs. AZs make partitioning applications for high availability easy. If an application is partitioned across AZs, companies are better isolated and protected from issues such as power outages, lightning strikes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and more. AZs are physically separated by a meaningful distance, many kilometers, from any other AZ, although all are within 100 km (60 miles) of each other.

Multiple datacenters within a region with redundant power and networking is the definition of Availability Zone. The same for other public clouds

What is the difference between availability zone and region in AWS? AWS Regions are large and widely dispersed into separate geographic locations. Availability Zones are distinct locations within an AWS Region that are engineered to be isolated from failures in other Availability Zones.

The AWS Availability Zone (AZ) is the component of the AWS global infrastructure that consists of one or more discrete data centers with redundant power, networking, and connectivity. Each AWS Region consists of multiple Availability Zones, which are physically separated but interconnected to provide high availability and fault tolerance. By deploying applications across multiple AZs, you can improve resilience and minimize downtime in case of failures.
