QuestionQ239

Content Domain 3: Cloud Technology and Services

A company wants to deploy an application that stores data in a relational database. The company wants database tasks, such as automated backups and database snapshots, to be managed by AWS.

Which AWS service will meet these requirements?

  • A Amazon DocumentDB
  • B Amazon RDS
  • C Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS)
  • D Amazon S3
Explanation

Amazon RDS is a managed relational database service that automatically handles operational tasks such as automated backups, database snapshots, patching, and failover, removing that burden from the customer. Amazon EBS snapshots back up block storage volumes rather than managing a relational database engine, and DocumentDB and S3 are not relational database services.
