Question #: 195
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Database - Specialty Questions]

An application reads and writes data to an Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instance. A new reporting dashboard needs read-only access to the database. When the application and reports are both under heavy load, the database experiences performance degradation. A database specialist needs to improve the database performance.
What should the database specialist do to meet these requirements?

  • A. Create a read replica of the DB instance. Configure the reports to connect to the replication instance endpoint.
  • B. Create a read replica of the DB instance. Configure the application and reports to connect to the cluster endpoint.
  • C. Enable Multi-AZ deployment. Configure the reports to connect to the standby replica.
  • D. Enable Multi-AZ deployment. Configure the application and reports to connect to the cluster endpoint.

Create a read replica of the DB instance. Configure the application and reports to connect to the cluster endpoint. By creating a read replica of the DB instance and directing the reporting dashboard to connect to the replica, the application can continue to read and write data to the primary DB instance without impacting the performance of the reporting dashboard. The read replica can handle the additional read-only load from the reporting dashboard, improving overall performance. By configuring the application and reports to connect to the cluster endpoint, the load can be distributed across the primary DB instance and the read replica. This approach provides a scalable and efficient solution for improving database performance while maintaining read-only access to the reporting dashboard.

The reason not to choose B is — both application and reports to connect to the cluster endpoint — nothing can distribute the workload to the new replica. Thus, to choose A to distribute the workload

Why not C - With Multi-AZ DB cluster we should be able to achieve this??

It's a Standby Replica, not a Read replica, So it should be A

Multi-AZ serves for HA, not for performance improvement. The latter is asked here --> A.

standby replica configured for high availability in a Multi-AZ deployment. Replication with the standby replica is synchronous. Unlike a read replica, a standby replica can't serve read traffic.
