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) is correct because it provides a dedicated private network connection from the corporate data center to AWS, ensuring consistent network performance and low latency. Option A (AWS Transit Gateway) is a network transit hub but does not itself provide a direct connection; it can be used with Direct Connect or VPN attachments. Option B (AWS Site-to-Site VPN) uses the public internet, which can lead to variable performance and latency. Option D (AWS Client VPN) is designed for individual remote clients, not for site-to-site connectivity.
