AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate — Question 264
A company is using an Amazon DynamoDB table for data. A SysOps administrator must configure replication of the table to another AWS Region for disaster recovery.
What should the SysOps administrator do to meet this requirement?
Answer options
- A. Enable DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX).
- B. Enable DynamoDB Streams, and add a global secondary index (GSI).
- C. Enable DynamoDB Streams, and add a global table Region.
- D. Enable point-in-time recovery.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C because enabling DynamoDB Streams and adding a global table Region allows for data replication across AWS Regions, which is essential for disaster recovery. The other options do not facilitate cross-region replication: DAX enhances performance but does not aid in replication, while a global secondary index is unrelated to replication. Point-in-time recovery is for backup purposes, not for regional replication.
