Answer

Scenario

Your infrastructure has two application endpoints requiring distinct monitoring strategies through Route 53 health checks, each with different protocols, ports, health check intervals, and failure thresholds.

Task

Configure two health checks:

  1. web-server at 10.0.1.10 using HTTP on port 80 with a /health path, 3-failure threshold, and 30-second intervals
  2. api-server at 10.0.2.10 using HTTPS on port 443, 5-failure threshold, 10-second fast intervals, inverted status enabled, and monitoring from three specific AWS regions (US East, EU Ireland, Asia Pacific Singapore)
