Question

An ecommerce company runs a PostgreSQL database on premises. The database stores data by using high IOPS Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) block storage. The daily peak I/O transactions per second do not exceed 15,000 IOPS. The company wants to migrate the database to Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL and provision disk IOPS performance independent of disk storage capacity. Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C. The correct answer is C. Option C: Configure the General Purpose SSD (gp3) EBS volume storage type and provision 15,000 IOPS. Amazon EBS provides block storage attached to a single EC2 instance. AWS Config tracks resource configuration changes and evaluates compliance. This option delivers the requirement at the lowest cost.
