PAS-C01 Technology Practice Question
A company is migrating its SAP landscape to AWS and wants to ensure that all SAP systems can communicate with each other using private IP addresses only. The systems are deployed in multiple VPCs. Which AWS solution should be used to enable private connectivity between these VPCs?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse VPC Peering with VPC Endpoints, thinking both provide private connectivity, but VPC Endpoints only connect to AWS services, not to other VPCs.
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
✓
VPC Peering.
VPC Peering is the correct solution because it enables direct, private IP connectivity between VPCs using the AWS global network, with no gateways or VPN connections required. Traffic stays within AWS and never traverses the public internet, satisfying the requirement for SAP systems to communicate using only private IP addresses across multiple VPCs.
