A company wants DNS to route traffic to a primary endpoint while it is healthy and automatically switch to a secondary endpoint when the primary is unhealthy. Which Route 53 routing policy should be used?

Accepted Answer

C. Failover routing. Route 53 failover routing is specifically designed to send traffic to a primary healthy resource and switch to a secondary resource when the primary is unhealthy. Weighted routing distributes traffic by percentages, not health-based active-passive behavior.
