Question 21

Question

Your application running on OCI Compute instances in a private subnet requires high availability and
the ability to distribute incoming traffic across multiple instances. You need to ensure that the load
balancer can handle both HTTP and HTTPS traffic and provides health checks to monitor the
availability of your backend servers. Which OCI Load Balancer offering is the most suitable for this
scenario, considering both functionality and cost-effectiveness for a production environment?

Accepted Answer

Flexible Load Balancer with HTTP and HTTPS listeners and health checks.

Sean W. · Answer

B. Only the Flexible Load Balancer with HTTP/HTTPS listeners gives you app-layer features and health checks, which is what you need.

Avery · Answer

Guessing B, similar scenario is covered in Oracle official docs and practice exams.

MeeraO · Answer

Seen exactly similar question in my exam, correct pick is B

Ishaan · Answer

This is tricky since "cost-effectiveness" could push folks toward D, but the question clearly wants HTTP/HTTPS support and active health checks. If you pick only TCP listeners (D), you lose Layer 7 features like path-based routing and SSL termination. So despite the price, it's B, unless they'd let you skip those app-level features. Anyone disagree?

Ivy S. · Answer

C or D-I actually thought maybe Flexible Load Balancer with TCP listeners (D) could work, since it does support health checks and is cheaper. But I keep second guessing if you'd lose some HTTP/HTTPS-specific benefits that way. Anyone think D could be okay for cost reasons?
