Answer: Enable DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) for DynamoDB and CloudFront for S3
Enable DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) for DynamoDB and CloudFront for S3 DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) is a fully managed, highly available, in-memory cache for Amazon DynamoDB that delivers up to a 10 times performance improvement—from milliseconds to microseconds—even at millions of requests per second. DAX is tightly integrated with DynamoDB—you simply provision a DAX cluster, use the DAX client SDK to point your existing DynamoDB API calls at the DAX cluster, and let DAX handle the rest. Because DAX is API-compatible with DynamoDB, you don't have to make any functional application code changes. DAX is used to natively cache DynamoDB reads. CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN) service that delivers static and dynamic web content, video streams, and APIs around the world, securely and at scale. By design, delivering data out of CloudFront can be more cost-effective than delivering it from S3 directly to your users. When a user requests content that you serve with CloudFront, their request is routed to a nearby Edge Location. If CloudFront has a cached copy of the requested file, CloudFront delivers it to the user, providing a fast (low-latency) response. If the file they’ve requested isn’t yet cached, CloudFront retrieves it from your origin – for example, the S3 bucket where you’ve stored your content. So, you can use CloudFront to improve application performance to serve static content from S3. Incorrect options: Enable ElastiCache Redis for DynamoDB and CloudFront for S3 Amazon ElastiCache for Redis is a blazing fast in-memory data store that provides sub-millisecond latency to power internet-scale real-time applications. Amazon ElastiCache for Redis is a great choice for real-time transactional and analytical processing use cases such as caching, chat/messaging, gaming leaderboards, geospatial, machine learning, media streaming, queues, real-time analytics, and session store.

A financial services company has implemented a REST API that is hosted using an Auto Scaling Group behind an Application Load Balancer. This API is responsible for storing data payloads in DynamoDB, while the static content is delivered through S3. Usage pattern analysis has revealed that 80% of the read requests are common across all users.
