Q3Design Resilient ArchitecturesMultiple answers
A gaming company is migrating its public scoreboard from a data center to the AWS Cloud. The company uses Amazon EC2 Windows Server instances behind an Application Load Balancer to run its dynamic application. The company requires a highly available storage solution for the application. The application includes static files and dynamic server-side code. Which combination of steps should a solutions architect take to satisfy these requirements? **(Choose two.)**

A because Elasticache, despite being ideal for leaderboards per Amazon, doesn't cache at edge locations. D because FSx has higher performance for low latency needs.

"FSx is built for high performance and submillisecond latency using solid-state drive storage volumes. This design enables users to select storage capacity and latency independently. Thus, even a subterabyte file system can have 256 Mbps or higher throughput and support volumes up to 64 TB."

The reasons are:
Storing static files in S3 with CloudFront provides durability, high availability, and low latency by caching at edge locations.
FSx for Windows File Server provides a fully managed Windows native file system that can be accessed from the Windows EC2 instances to share server-side code. It is designed for high availability and scales up to 10s of GBPS throughput.
EFS and EBS volumes can be attached to a single AZ. FSx and S3 are replicated across AZs for high availability.

A & D for sure
A, D 3
Key: Static files and dynamic server-side code.
Key: Windows Server.
The answer is A because S3 is for static files, and CloudFront is a CDN.
The second answer is D because FSx works for Windows File Server.
It's not C because EFS is just for Linux.
It's not E because EBS doesn't share files between EC2 instances.

you can't mount efs on windows

It is obvious that A and D.

The question and options are badly worded. How does (D) storing server side code on a file server makes it executable?

Just to add, ElastiCache is use in front of AWS database.

A and D seems correct
A, D 2
both A and D seem correct
A, D 2
A because Elasticache doesn't cache at edge locations. D because FSx has higher performance for low latency needs.

Why not EFS?
