AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional — Question 199

A user is thinking to use EBS PIOPS volume.
Which of the below mentioned options is a right use case for the PIOPS EBS volume?

Answer options

• A. Analytics
• B. System boot volume
• C. Mongo DB
• D. Log processing

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Mongo DB, because it requires high performance and consistent I/O operations, which PIOPS is designed to provide. The other options, while they may benefit from good performance, do not have the same level of demand for IOPS as a database like Mongo DB.
