What you quoted and your answer of A do not go together. Need further explaining, because it literally says "without select a particular instance" which means no instance (serverless) would be the best option

B. "A database administrator wants to migrate this database to AWS without selecting a particular instance type in anticipation of more users in the future" Serverless sounds right, and it's compatible with MySQL and PostgreSQL.

Aurora Serverless v1 provides a relatively simple, cost-effective option for infrequent, intermittent, or unpredictable workloads. It is cost-effective because it automatically starts up, scales compute capacity to match your application's usage, and shuts down when it's not in use

Without getting into the weeds of researching further, I think the answer is A. I don't believe you have to specify an instance type to deploy Aurora. Secondly, I'm also thinking that Aurora serverless doesn't support MySQL/PostgreSQL emulation the way the Aurora RDS does. I just found this on google: "Aurora Serverless v2 (Preview) is currently available in preview for Aurora with MySQL compatibility only." https://aws.amazon.com/rds/aurora/serverless/

According to the documentation it should be : B [...] By using Aurora Serverless v1, you can create a database endpoint without specifying the DB instance class size. [...] https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/aurora-serverless.how-it-works.html
