I bet AWS is just trying to trick us with all these options. They're probably going to pick the one that costs them the most money to implement!

E) Configure an Amazon S3 bucket for website hosting. Upload into the bucket an HTML holding page with its 'x-amz-website-redirect-location' metadata property set to the load balancer endpoint. Configure Elastic Load Balancing to redirect to the holding page when the load on web servers is above a certain level

Redirecting to a holding page? That's a creative solution, but I'm not sure it's the best way to handle scaling issues. Seems like a bit of a Band-Aid approach.

I like the idea of using past data to predict future scaling needs. Scheduled scaling seems like a smart way to stay ahead of the curve.

I personally think option E could also be beneficial. Redirecting to a holding page during high load could help manage user disappointment.

I agree with Leonora. Creating a new AMI with pre-configured application and using past scaling events for prediction seem like practical solutions.

Ooh, using a custom metric to trigger scaling is an interesting idea. I wonder if that would give us more granular control over the scaling process.

B looks promising, but I'm not sure how well pre-warming would work with unpredictable traffic surges. Might be worth a try though.
