You are architecting an HPC solution in AWS. The system consists of a cluster of EC2 instances that require low-latency communications between them. Which method should you use to set up a cluster to meet these requirements?

A.
Create a VPC with one subnet in a single Availability Zone. Keep the size of the subnet equal to the number of instances required in the cluster. Launch instances for the cluster in this small subnet to guarantee low-latency networkperformance.

B.
Create a placement group. Choose an EC2 instance type compatible with placement groups for the cluster. Launch instances for the cluster in the placement group.
Answers
B.
Create a placement group. Choose an EC2 instance type compatible with placement groups for the cluster. Launch instances for the cluster in the placement group.
C.
Launch Amazon EC2 instances with the largest available number of cores and RAM. Attach all instances to an Amazon EBS PIOPS volume. Implement a shared memory system across all instances in the cluster, using this shared EBSvolume to minimize latency of communication.

D.
Choose an EC2 instance type that offers enhanced networking. Attach a 10-Gbps non-blocking elastic network interface to the instances. Configure the elastic network interface to optimize network performance to reduce latency.

D.
Choose an EC2 instance type that offers enhanced networking. Attach a 10-Gbps non-blocking elastic network interface to the instances. Configure the elastic network interface to optimize network performance to reduce latency.
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

Explanation:

Placement groups are recommended for applications that benefit from low network latency, high network throughput, or both.

A is incorrect because the size of a subnet has no impact on network performance. C is incorrect because an EBS volume cannot be shared between EC2 instances. D is only half the solution because the enhanced networking affects the network behavior of an EC2 instance but not the network infrastructure between instances.
