What security layer allows or denies data from entering or exiting a subnet?
NACL (Network Access Control List) allows or denies traffic from entering a subnet. Once inside the subnet, other AWS resources (i.e. EC2 instances) may have an additional layer of security under security groups.
What are two benefits of availability zones?
Lower latency where multiple availability zones are implemented, it makes a sense to have the servers that provide a given application located relatively close to the end users that will access that application.
Customers can deploy their applications and instances across availability zones and design their environment so that if one availability zone fails, the instances in the other availability zone will become active, and continue the work of the servers in the failed availability zone, until such time as service can be restored.
