AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 353
A company is migrating an application that includes an Oracle database to AWS. The company cannot rewrite the application.
To which AWS service could the company migrate the database?
Answer options
- A. Amazon Athena
- B. Amazon DynamoDB
- C. Amazon RDS
- D. Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility)
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Amazon RDS supports Oracle as a database engine, allowing the company to migrate its Oracle database without needing to rewrite the application code. Amazon Athena is an interactive query service, Amazon DynamoDB is a NoSQL database, and Amazon DocumentDB is a document database, none of which natively support Oracle database migrations without code modifications.
