AWS - Elastic Load Balancing
A load balancer is configured but users report slow responses. Which misconfiguration could cause this?
AHealth check interval is too long, delaying detection of failed servers
BLoad balancer is set to distribute traffic evenly
CSSL certificate is correctly installed
DAuto scaling is enabled for target servers
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Analyze impact of health check settings

    If health checks run too slowly, failed servers remain in rotation longer, causing slow responses.

  2. Step 2: Identify which option causes slow user experience

    Health check interval is too long, delaying detection of failed servers explains a delay in removing bad servers, leading to slow responses.

  3. Final Answer:

    Health check interval is too long, delaying detection of failed servers -> Option A

  4. Quick Check:

    Slow health checks = Slow user responses [OK]
Quick Trick: Fast health checks keep traffic flowing smoothly [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Thinking even traffic distribution causes slowness
  • Assuming SSL affects speed directly
  • Believing auto scaling causes slowness
