Question 250
In an AWS networking assessment, an API requires real-time results and must forward every request to an authenticated origin without caching responses. Which technical explanation BEST accounts for the observed condition?
Explanation
Correct Answer
A zero-TTL caching configuration forwards origin requests rather than reusing old personalized data. This explains the observed network behavior, which can be checked by verifying that two sequential API requests reach the origin and return current authorized results.
Incorrect Answers
Path patterns can route requests to distinct caching policies while sharing a distribution. The decisive technical distinction is CloudFront cache policies can disable caching while still providing edge proxy features; a zero-TTL caching configuration forwards origin requests rather than reusing old personalized data.
A private S3 origin prevents viewers bypassing edge controls through an unrestricted bucket endpoint. The decisive technical distinction is CloudFront cache policies can disable caching while still providing edge proxy features; a zero-TTL caching configuration forwards origin requests rather than reusing old personalized data.
Viewer-request transformations are distinct from long-running application logic executed at the origin. The reported evidence instead concerns CloudFront cache policies can disable caching while still providing edge proxy features: a zero-TTL caching configuration forwards origin requests rather than reusing old personalized data.
