You’ve set up a Cloudfront distribution in AWS. You’re planning to conduct a primary load test to see the performance of the Cloudfront distribution. Which of the following factors must you keep in mind when performing the load test? Choose 2 answers from the options given below.

Answer options:

A.Ensure to initiate client requests from multiple geographic regions.
B.Configure your test so that each client makes an independent DNS request.
C.Ensure that client requests hit the origin server.
D.Ensure that SSL is turned on for the distribution.

Answer – A and B
The AWS Documentation mentions the following.
CloudFront is designed to scale for viewers with different client IP addresses and different DNS resolvers across multiple geographic regions. To perform load testing that accurately assesses CloudFront performance, we recommend that you do all of the following.
· Send client requests from multiple geographic regions.
· Configure your test so that each client makes an independent DNS request. Each client will then receive a different set of IP addresses from DNS.
· For each client that is making requests, spread your client requests across the set of IP addresses that are returned by DNS, which ensures that the load is distributed across multiple servers in a CloudFront edge location.
Option C is incorrect since you need to initiate the request to the Cloudfront distribution.
Option D is incorrect since there is no mention of a secure request in the question.
