AWS Certified Database – Specialty — Question 91

A startup company is building a new application to allow users to visualize their on-premises and cloud networking components. The company expects billions of components to be stored and requires responses in milliseconds. The application should be able to identify:
✑ The networks and routes affected if a particular component fails.
✑ The networks that have redundant routes between them.
✑ The networks that do not have redundant routes between them.
✑ The fastest path between two networks.
Which database engine meets these requirements?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Amazon Neptune is a graph database designed for handling complex relationships and connections, making it suitable for visualizing networking components and their interactions. The other options, such as Amazon Aurora MySQL and Amazon DynamoDB, are relational and NoSQL databases respectively that may not efficiently handle the complex queries needed for network visualization and relationship mapping, while Amazon ElastiCache for Redis is primarily for caching and not suited for storing complex graph data.
