AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 586

Amazon Relational Database Service integrates with _____, a service that lets your organization create users and groups under your organization's AWS account and assign unique security creden-tials to each user.

Answer options

• A. Amazon RDS tags
• B. AWS IAM
• C. AWS Lambda
• D. Amazon EMR

Correct answer: B

Explanation

AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) is the AWS service designed to manage access control by creating users, groups, and roles with specific security credentials. Amazon RDS integrates with AWS IAM to enforce secure access policies for database management. Other options like AWS Lambda (serverless compute), Amazon EMR (big data), and RDS tags (metadata) do not manage user identities or credentials.
