Description

A Network Load Balancer is one of the types of load balancer offered by AWS Elastic Load Balancing. A load balancer enables applications to scale horizontally across multiple virtual machines.

People aiming to get AWS certified should be proficient at working with and configuring network load balancers.

This hands-on lab challenge will test your practical ability to configure a solution in a production-like AWS environment. You will be presented with a task and set of requirements that you must fulfill to pass the challenge.

This is a real environment, which means you can prove your knowledge in an applied way, substituting multiple choice questions for a dynamic performance-based exam situation.
