Which of the below mentioned options will not help to achieve HA?

A user is planning a highly available application deployment with EC2.

Which of the below mentioned options will not help to achieve HA?

A. Elastic IP address

B. PIOPS

C. AMI

D. Availability Zones

Answer: B

Explanation:

In Amazon Web Service, the user can achieve HA by deploying instances in multiple zones. The elastic IP helps the user achieve HA when one of the instances is down but still keeps the same URL. The AMI helps launching the new instance. The PIOPS is for the performance of EBS and does not help for HA.
