Route 53 geolocation routing

Vireo Streaming must show region-specific catalogs and comply with licensing rules: users in Germany must always be sent to the eu-central-1 deployment and users in Japan to the ap-northeast-1 deployment, regardless of network latency. Which Route 53 routing policy should be used?

  1. A.Geolocation routing
  2. B.Latency-based routing
  3. C.Weighted routing
  4. D.Multivalue answer routing
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. Geolocation routing

Why: Geolocation routing answers DNS queries based on the geographic location of the user, such as country, so licensing rules can be enforced per country, with a default record for other locations. Latency-based routing chooses by network performance and could send users across borders, and weighted and multivalue routing do not consider location.
