99. Which is a relational database that serves up to five times better performance than MySQL in AWS.
- Redshift
- Aurora
- DynamoDB
Answer: B) Aurora
Explanation:
Aurora is a type of relational database that serves up to five times better performance than MySQL in AWS.
As per AWS Whitepaper: Amazon Aurora is up to five times faster than standard MySQL databases and three times faster than standard PostgreSQL databases. It provides the security, availability, and reliability of commercial databases at 1/10th the cost. Amazon Aurora is fully managed by Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS), which automates time-consuming administration tasks such as hardware provisioning, database setup, patching, and backups.
