You have been asked to create a VPC network topology for your company.
The VPC network must support both internet-facing and intranet applications, accessed only over VPN.
Both internet-facing and intranet applications must be able to leverage at least 3 AZs each for high availability.
How many subnets must you create within your VPC to accommodate these requirements?

A. B. C. D.Correct Answer - D.
Since each subnet corresponds to one Availability Zone and you need 3 AZs for both the internet and intranet applications, you will need 6 subnets.
For internet-facing and intranet applications, they should be put at different subnets.

To calculate the number of subnets required, we need to consider the following points:
To support both types of applications, we need to create subnets for each type of application separately. Each subnet should span across at least 3 AZs for high availability.
Considering the above points, we need to create:
Therefore, we need a total of 6 subnets for the VPC network topology to accommodate the given requirements.
So the correct answer is (D) 6.
