A Company's Processing Team Has an AWS Account with a Production

question 822

Multiple Choice

A company's processing team has an AWS account with a production application. The application runs on Amazon EC2 instances behind a Network Load Balancer (NLB) . The EC2 instances are hosted in private subnets in a VPC in the eu-west-1 Region. The VPC was assigned the CIDR block of 10.0.0.0/16. The billing team recently created a new AWS account and deployed an application on EC2 instances that are hosted in private subnets in a VPC in the eu-central-1 Region. The new VPC is assigned the CIDR block of 10.0.0.0/16. The processing application needs to securely communicate with the billing application over a proprietary TCP port. What should a solutions architect do to meet this requirement with the LEAST amount of operational effort?

• A) In the billing team's account, create a new VPC and subnets in eu-central-1 that use the CIDR block of 192.168.0.0/16. Redeploy the application to the new subnets. Configure a VPC peering connection between the two VPCs.
• B) In the processing team's account, add an additional CIDR block of 192.168.0.0/16 to the VPC in eu-west-1. Restart each of the EC2 instances so that they obtain a new IP address. Configure an inter-Region VPC peering connection between the two VPCs.
• C) In the billing team's account, create a new VPC and subnets in eu-west-1 that use the CIDR block of 192.168.0.0/16. Create a VPC endpoint service (AWS PrivateLink) in the processing team's account and an interface VPC endpoint in the new VPC. Configure an inter-Region VPC peering connection in the billing team's account between the two VPCs.
• D) In each account, create a new VPC with the CIDR blocks of 192.168.0.0/16 and 172.16.0.0/16. Create inter-Region VPC peering connections between the billing team's VPCs and the processing team's VPCs. Create gateway VPC endpoints to allow traffic to route between the VPCs.
