AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 224

A company needs to migrate a PostgreSQL database from on-premises to Amazon RDS.

Which AWS service or tool should the company use to meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Cloud Adoption Readiness Tool
• B. AWS Migration Hub
• C. AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS)
• D. AWS Application Migration Service

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct choice is AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS), as it is specifically designed for migrating databases to AWS. The other options, such as Cloud Adoption Readiness Tool and AWS Migration Hub, do not directly facilitate database migration like AWS DMS does, and AWS Application Migration Service focuses on server migrations rather than database transfers.
