AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 386

Amazon RDS provides Amazon CloudWatch metrics for your DB Instance deployments at no ad-ditional charge. You can use the AWS Management Console to view key operational metrics for your DB Instance deployments, including ____.

Answer options

• A. I/O activity, DB Instance connections, and number of users
• B. DB Engine Version Management
• C. username, I/O activity, and DB Instance connections
• D. compute/memory/storage capacity utilization, I/O activity, and DB Instance connections

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Amazon CloudWatch tracks key performance metrics for Amazon RDS DB Instances, including compute, memory, and storage capacity utilization, along with I/O activity and active DB Instance connections. It does not monitor user-level details like usernames or user counts, and DB Engine Version Management is an administrative function rather than a real-time operational metric.
