How can a solutions architect most cost-effectively redesign a multi-tier web application hosted on Amazon Linux EC2 instances with Auto Scaling, to handle high volumes of static web content access?
Explanation:
The correct answer is C: 'Deploy a content delivery solution to optimize the delivery of static web content.' Amazon CloudFront, combined with an Amazon S3 bucket, can be used to host static web content. This approach reduces the load on the backend EC2 instances and saves costs by serving static content directly from a cost-effective and scalable service. Options A and B involve changes to EC2 instances but do not address the core issue of static content delivery. Option D could help, but it’s less cost-effective and more complex compared to using CloudFront.
