Selected Answer: A

There's no Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instance autoscaling service (it's only available for Aurora). And it wouldn't solve the storage issue.

Answer is A. If your workload is unpredictable, you can enable storage autoscaling for an Amazon RDS DB instance. With storage autoscaling enabled, when Amazon RDS detects that you are running out of free database space it automatically scales up your storage. https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2019/06/rds-storage-auto-scaling/ https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER_PIOPS.StorageTypes.html#USER_PIOPS.Autoscaling

A. Configure RDS Storage Auto Scaling. https://aws.amazon.com/vi/about-aws/whats-new/2019/06/rds-storage-auto-scaling/ "operationally efficient and cost-effective" RDS Storage Auto Scaling automatically scales storage capacity in response to growing database workloads, with zero downtime. There is no additional cost for RDS Storage Auto Scaling.
