Question

A company is designing a new internal web application in the AWS Cloud. The new application must securely retrieve and store multiple employee usernames and passwords from an AWS managed service. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: D. The correct answer is D. Option D: Store the employee credentials in AWS Secrets Manager. Use AWS CloudFormation and the BatchGetSecretValue API to retrieve the usernames and passwords from Secrets Manager. AWS Batch schedules and runs batch computing jobs at any scale without managing clusters. Amazon RDS is a managed relational database that handles patching, backups and failover. AWS Secrets Manager stores and automatically rotates secrets such as database credentials.
