Question

A DevOps team is merging code revisions for an application that uses an Amazon RDS Multi-AZ DB cluster for its production database. The DevOps team uses continuous integration to periodically verify that the application works. The DevOps team needs to test the changes before the changes are deployed to the production database. Which solution will meet these requirements?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A. The correct answer is A. Option A: Use a buildspec file in AWS CodeBuild to restore the DB cluster from a snapshot of the production database, run integration tests, and drop the restored database after verification. AWS CodeBuild compiles, tests and packages code in a managed build service. By spanning multiple Availability Zones / adding redundancy, this option provides the high availability and resilience required.
