Designing a Multi-AZ VPC Peering Architecture
In this hands-on lab, you will implement a resilient, multi-AZ VPC peering architecture by establishing private connectivity between application and database tiers using VPC Peering. You will deploy multi-AZ Application Load Balancers and configure Route 53 DNS failover to automatically redirect traffic during a simulated catastrophic Availability Zone failure.
