A rapidly growing company wants to scale for developer demand for AWS development environments. Development environments are created manually in the AWS Management Console. The networking team uses AWS CloudFormation to manage the networking infrastructure, exporting stack output values for the Amazon VPC and all subnets. The development environments have common standards, such as Application Load Balancers, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling groups, security groups, and Amazon DynamoDB tables. To keep up with demand, the DevOps engineer wants to automate the creation of development environments. Because the infrastructure required to support the application is expected to grow, there must be a way to easily update the deployed infrastructure. CloudFormation will be used to create a template for the development environments. Which approach will meet these requirements and quickly provide consistent AWS environments for developers?

Chose C1
C seems right

C is correct: use nested stacks and Fn::ImportValue intrinsic functions with the resources of the nested stack A: no mention of nested stack B and D: Fn::ImportValue intrinsic function is used on child template to import values from parent template. So it should not be used on root template, which is the universal parent tempalte of all other templates
Chose C2
C is the best answer. B is wrong as you need to use Fn::ImportValue in Resource section to import CFN template outputs.
