A website is hosted in the Sydney Region and stores many static images and videos in Amazon S3. Customers in the US and Europe report slow load times for media, but users in Australia experience no problems. Which change will produce the greatest improvement in media load performance for the US and European users?

Creating an Amazon CloudFront distribution and serving static media from its edge locations will significantly improve load times for users in the US and Europe. CloudFront is a Content Delivery Network (CDN) that caches content closer to your users, reducing latency by serving data from the nearest edge location rather than directly from the origin S3 bucket in Sydney. Enabling AWS PrivateLink for Amazon S3 is incorrect because it provides private connectivity between your VPC and S3, which doesn't address public internet latency for global users. Enabling S3 Transfer Acceleration speeds up uploads to S3, not downloads to end-users. Deploying Amazon API Gateway endpoints in each Region is incorrect because API Gateway is primarily for API management, not for efficiently serving large static media files globally.
