ApsaraDB for RDS is Alibaba Cloud's managed database service that simplifies O&M tasks for relational databases like MySQL. It offers built-in features for automatic backups, high availability, and Master/Slave synchronization, which reduces manual intervention and helps scale the database as traffic grows. By migrating to ApsaraDB for RDS, users can offload complex O&M responsibilities to Alibaba Cloud, ensuring a more efficient and scalable database solution for high-traffic applications.

Active/standby server groups are a feature of Server Load Balancer (SLB) that allows you to configure a primary ECS instance and a secondary ECS instance for the backend of an SLB instance1. When the primary instance is working properly, the traffic is only forwarded to the primary ECS. When the primary instance is down, traffic is switched to the standby instance1. This feature is supported by TCP and HTTPS listeners, but not by HTTP and UDP listeners1. TCP and HTTPS listeners support session persistence, which ensures that requests from the same client are always forwarded to the same backend server2. HTTP and UDP listeners do not support session persistence, and they use round-robin or weighted round-robin algorithms to distribute traffic among the backend servers2. References: 1: Create an active/standby server group 2: [Configure a listener]

Using a single PUT upload through the console, the maximum file size is 5GB. For larger files, multipart uploading should be used, which allows uploads up to 5TB by splitting files into smaller parts.

In SLB, a Listener is configured with policies and forwarding rules that define how the load balancer will handle incoming requests, including protocol, port, and health check configurations. It does not represent an SLB instance itself or a collection of ECS instances, but it plays a crucial role in managing traffic routing and session persistence.

Default VPCs do count toward your overall VPC quota in Alibaba Cloud, contrary to option D. Each region has a single default VPC that is automatically created by Alibaba Cloud, and users can create additional VPCs, which are then labeled as non-default VPCs. Default VPCs also have different constraints and operational characteristics compared to user-created VPCs, such as specific configurations for ease of use in basic setups.

For Layer-4 SLB using TCP, the health check determines ECS instance availability based on the successful completion of a TCP 3-way handshake. This ensures that the backend server is reachable and can accept connections, which is critical for reliable TCP-based load balancing.

=================

To use Alibaba Cloud CDN, you must add your domain to the "CDN Domain Name List" and then modify the domain’s DNS settings to point to the CNAME provided by Alibaba Cloud. Manual cache refresh (option A) is optional and not a necessary step for initial setup, and while monitoring is useful, it is not required for CDN operation, so option D is also not essential.

 Alibaba Cloud CDN can record the real IP address of a visitor in the HTTP header field X-Forwarded-For, which can be obtained by the origin server or the user-defined log of Apache and Nginx. Alibaba Cloud CDN also provides a one-click function to enable the recording of the visitor’s real IP address in the console, which can be viewed in the access log. References:

Alibaba Cloud Express Connect is a service that enables high-bandwidth, reliable, secure, and private connections between different networks, such as VPC networks across regions, Alibaba Cloud accounts, and on-premise data centers1. It supports different connection methods, such as physical connections, virtual border routers, and Express Cloud Connect1.

Scenario A: Intranet communication between VPCs and Smart Access Gateway in customers different branch offices. This scenario can be achieved by using Express Cloud Connect, which is based on the hardware capacities of Smart Access Gateway and provides SD-WAN capabilities1. Express Cloud Connect allows you to connect your branch offices to Alibaba Cloud through a dedicated partner backbone network, and access VPC networks in all regions1.

Scenario B: Intranet communication between a VPC and servers in an external IDC. This scenario can be achieved by using physical connections, which are dedicated network connections between on-premise data centers and VPC networks1. You can lease a line from your ISP or work with an Alibaba Cloud partner to establish a physical connection to Alibaba Cloud1. This way, you can access VPC networks in all regions with high bandwidth and low latency1.

Scenario C: Intranet communication between two VPCs in different accounts and different CIDR Blocks. This scenario can be achieved by using peering connections, which are logical connections that enable communication between VPC networks2. Peering connections support cross-region and cross-account scenarios, and allow you to connect VPC networks with different CIDR blocks2. However, peering connections are not part of Alibaba Cloud Express Connect, but a separate service called Cloud Enterprise Network2.

Scenario D: Intranet communication between two VPCs under the same account in the same region. This scenario can also be achieved by using peering connections, which are logical connections that enable communication between VPC networks2. Peering connections support intra-region and same-account scenarios, and allow you to connect VPC networks with different CIDR blocks2. However, peering connections are not part of Alibaba Cloud Express Connect, but a separate service called Cloud Enterprise Network2. References: 1: Express Connect - Alibaba Cloud 2: Introduction to Cloud Enterprise Network - Alibaba Cloud Document Center
