AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 531

Which combination of AWS services can be used to move a commercial relational database to an Amazon-managed open-source database? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS)
• B. AWS software development kits (SDKs)
• C. AWS Schema Conversion Tool
• D. AWS Systems Manager
• E. Amazon EMR

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

Migrating a commercial database to an open-source engine requires both schema conversion and data replication. The AWS Schema Conversion Tool is used to convert the source database schema and code to match the target open-source database format. AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) is then utilized to safely and efficiently migrate the actual data from the source to the target destination.
