is Direct connect a cost effective solution?
Amiel-Palacol-TutorialsDojo updated 1 year, 6 months ago 2 Members · 2 Posts -
A multinational investment bank has multiple cloud architectures across the globe. The company has a VPC in the US East region for their East Coast office and another VPC in the US West for their West Coast office. There is a requirement to establish a low latency, high-bandwidth connection between their on-premises data center in Texas and both of their VPCs in AWS.
Which of the following options should the solutions architect implement to achieve the requirement in a cost-effective manner?

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback.
I understand that Direct Connect is more costly than AWS VPN. However, the question requires that it needs a low-latency and high-bandwidth connection between the on-premises data center and the VPCs. AWS VPN will not satisfy this particular requirement as it will only offer low to modest bandwidth. Hence, the correct answer is Set up an AWS Direct Connect Gateway with two virtual private gateways. Create the required Private Virtual Interfaces to the Direct Connect Gateway.
Hope this helps.
