Question

A company is launching a new application that requires a structured database to store user profiles, application settings, and transactional data. The database must be scalable with application traffic and must offer backups. Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C. The correct answer is C. Option C: Use Amazon Aurora Serverless for the database. Use serverless capacity scaling. Configure automated backups to Amazon S3. Amazon S3 provides durable, scalable object storage that is fully managed. AWS Backup centrally automates and manages backups across AWS services. Aurora Serverless auto-scales database capacity and is cost-effective for variable workloads. This option delivers the requirement at the lowest cost.
