Alibaba Cloud SLB can distribute user requests to backend ECS instances, but these ECS instances do not have to have the same specification (CPU, Memory). SLB virtualizes the added group of ECS instances in the same region into an application pool, and you can manage backend servers through either the default server group, a primary server group, or VServer groups. You can add ECS instances of different specifications to the same server group or VServer group according to your needs. SLB supports weighted round-robin (WRR) and weighted least connections (WLC) algorithms to balance the load among backend servers with different weights. References:

When the black hole policy is triggered by excessive DDoS traffic, the affected server is temporarily isolated from the network to prevent further damage. During this period, no services are available, meaning the server cannot provide limited-speed services.

According to the Alibaba Cloud documentation1, Auto Scaling is a service that automatically adjusts the number of elastic computing resources based on your business demands and policies. When the demand for computing resources increases, Auto Scaling automatically adds ECS instances to ensure sufficient computing capabilities. When the demand decreases, Auto Scaling automatically removes ECS instances to reduce costs.

Auto Scaling supports adding an existing ECS instance into the scaling group, but the instance must meet some requirements1. One of the requirements is that the instance and the scaling group must be in the same region. However, they do not have to be in the same zone. A zone is a physical area within a region that has independent power grids and networks. A region is a geographic area where Alibaba Cloud deploys its resources. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
