easy📝 Conceptual Q2 of 15
AWS - Elastic Load Balancing
Which AWS service commonly handles SSL/TLS termination for web applications?
AAWS Elastic Load Balancer
BAmazon S3
CAmazon RDS
DAWS Lambda
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Identify AWS services for traffic management

    Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) manages incoming traffic and can terminate SSL/TLS.

  2. Step 2: Exclude other services

    S3 stores files, RDS manages databases, Lambda runs code but does not terminate SSL/TLS.

  3. Final Answer:

    AWS Elastic Load Balancer -> Option A

  4. Quick Check:

    SSL termination service = ELB [OK]
Quick Trick: Load balancers handle SSL termination, not storage or compute [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Choosing storage or compute services instead of load balancer
  • Confusing Lambda with network traffic handling
  • Assuming RDS handles web traffic encryption
