AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 348

A company operates a petabyte-scale data warehouse to analyze its data. The company wants a solution that will not require manual hardware and software management.

Which AWS service will meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility)
• B. Amazon Redshift
• C. Amazon Neptune
• D. Amazon ElastiCache

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Amazon Redshift is a fully managed, petabyte-scale data warehouse service that automates administrative tasks like hardware provisioning, software patching, and setups. The other options are not designed for data warehousing; Amazon DocumentDB is a document database, Amazon Neptune is a graph database, and Amazon ElastiCache is an in-memory caching service.
