Why does AWS recommend deploying production workloads across multiple Availability Zones within a Region?

ATo reduce the customer's bill by half on every EC2 instance
BTo bypass the AWS shared responsibility model
CTo automatically duplicate data into every other AWS Region
DTo achieve high availability and tolerate the failure of a single AZ
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. To achieve high availability and tolerate the failure of a single AZ
Multi-AZ deployment isolates a workload's components in physically separate AZs so the failure of one (power, networking, hardware) doesn't take down the application. It does not affect billing or replicate to other Regions.
