AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate SOA-C03 Practice Question

Multi-value answer routing is designed to return multiple healthy records (up to eight) in response to each DNS query. Route 53 randomly selects from the healthy records that have associated health checks, allowing the client resolver to choose among them and providing basic load balancing and automatic removal of unhealthy endpoints. Latency-based routing directs users to the region with the lowest measured latency and does not randomly return several targets. Weighted routing can distribute traffic evenly but still returns only one value per query and requires explicit weights rather than random selection. Failover routing supports only active-passive configurations and cannot return several concurrently active endpoints. Therefore, multi-value answer routing best meets the stated criteria.
