Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
AWS Direct Connect
AWS Direct Connect provides a dedicated, low-latency, and consistent private network connection from on-premises to AWS, bypassing the internet. Option A (Site-to-Site VPN) uses the public internet and is less consistent. Option B (VPN CloudHub) connects multiple on-premises sites to AWS but still relies on the internet. Option C (VPC peering) connects VPCs within AWS, not on-premises. Therefore, D is correct.
