Which AWS services make use of global edge locations?

(Choose two)

A) AWS Fargate
B) Amazon CloudFront
C) AWS Global Accelerator
D) AWS Wavelength
E) Amazon VPC


Solution

Correct answer: B) Amazon CloudFront and C) AWS Global Accelerator.
B - Amazon CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN) service that uses a network of edge locations around the world to deliver content to end-users with low latency and high transfer speeds.
C - AWS Global Accelerator is a networking service that improves the availability and performance of your applications by directing traffic to the nearest AWS edge location based on health, geographic location, and latency.

Options A, D, and E do not directly make use of global edge locations:

A - AWS Fargate is a compute engine for Amazon ECS and EKS that allows you to run containers without managing the underlying infrastructure. It does not directly make use of global edge locations.
D - AWS Wavelength is a service that brings AWS compute and storage services to the edge of the 5G network, enabling ultra-low latency applications. While it may utilize edge locations, it operates specifically within the context of 5G network edge locations, which are different from the global edge locations used by CloudFront and Global Accelerator.
E - Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a service that allows you to provision a logically isolated section of the AWS Cloud where you can launch AWS resources in a virtual network. It does not directly make use of global edge locations.
