A global company needs to migrate from an on-premises Microsoft SQL Server database to a highly available database solution on AWS.

The company has limited availability of database specialists to support the migration and wants to automate the process.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • C. Rehost the on-premises SQL Server as a SQL Server Always On availability group. Host members of the availability group on Amazon EC2 instances. Use AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) to migrate all database objects.
  • D. Rehost the on-premises SQL Server as a SQL Server Always On availability group. Host members of the availability group on Amazon EC2 instances in a single subnet that extends across multiple Availability Zones. Use SQL Server tools to migrate the data.

Selected Answer: B
