Selected Answer: C
C. Amazon ElastiCache is a caching service that can be used to improve database performance by reducing the amount of read I/O on the database. By caching frequently accessed data in-memory, ElastiCache reduces the number of read operations that are sent to the database, thus improving the overall performance of the database. Amazon DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) is also a caching service, but it is designed for Amazon DynamoDB, not Amazon RDS. Amazon EMR is a big data processing service, and Amazon Redshift is a data warehousing service, neither of which are specifically designed to improve the performance of an Amazon RDS database.
