Elastic Compute Cloud
You currently have the following architecture in AWS:
a. A couple of EC2 Instances located in us-west-2a
b. The EC2 Instances are launched via an Auto Scaling group.
c. The EC2 Instances sit behind a
Classic ELB. Which of the following additional steps should be taken to ensure the above architecture conforms to a well-architected framework?
A. Conver tthe Classic ELB to an Application ELB.
B. Add an additional Auto Scaling Group.
C. Add additional EC2 Instances to us-west-2a.
D. Add or spread existing instances across multiple Availability Zones.
D. Add or spread existing instances across multiple Availability Zones.
AWS Documentation provides the following information to support this concept:
Balancing resources across Availability Zones is a best practice for well-architected applications, as this greatly increases aggregate system availability. Auto Scaling automatically balances EC2 instances across zones when you configure multiple zones in your Auto Scaling group settings. Auto Scaling always launches new instances such that they are balanced between zones as evenly as possible across the entire fleet.
