Amazon ANS-C01 Exam - Topic 1 Question 7 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's ANS-C01 exam
Question #: 7
Topic #: 1
[All ANS-C01 Questions]

A company is planning to create a service that requires encryption in transit. The traffic must not be decrypted between the client and the backend of the service. The company will implement the service by using the gRPC protocol over TCP port 443. The service will scale up to thousands of simultaneous connections. The backend of the service will be hosted on an Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) duster with the Kubernetes Cluster Autoscaler and the Horizontal Pod Autoscaler configured. The company needs to use mutual TLS for two-way authentication between the client and the backend.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Mutual TLS? Definitely need an Application Load Balancer for that!

I feel like the Network Load Balancer might be the right choice since it can handle TCP traffic directly, but I need to double-check the requirements for mutual TLS.

I'm a bit confused about whether we need a TCP listener or an HTTPS listener for this setup. Does mutual TLS require specific configurations?

I think we practiced a similar question about load balancers in our last session, and I recall that the Application Load Balancer is more suited for HTTPS traffic.

Wait, is this a trick question? What if the answer is actually a combination of options, like a Network Load Balancer with an HTTPS listener and an Application Load Balancer for the backend? Hmm, better think this through again.

Haha, I bet the person who wrote this question loves to see us struggle with the differences between ALB and NLB. But I'm going with option D - a Network Load Balancer with a TLS listener seems like the right fit.
