Q91 / 100

How does "Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration" improve upload performance, and what underlying technology does it use?

Correct! Well done.

Incorrect.

The correct answer is A) It routes uploads through CloudFront's globally distributed edge locations, transferring data to the nearest edge location and then over the AWS backbone network to the destination bucket, reducing the impact of long-distance internet latency

A

Correct Answer

It routes uploads through CloudFront's globally distributed edge locations, transferring data to the nearest edge location and then over the AWS backbone network to the destination bucket, reducing the impact of long-distance internet latency

Explanation

Transfer Acceleration leverages CloudFront edge locations as entry points, routing data over AWS's optimized backbone network rather than the public internet for the majority of the trip, which can significantly speed up uploads over long distances.
