Exam AWS Certified Developer Associate topic 1 question 14 discussion

Correct answer A and B. Reference-https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/decouple-rds-from-beanstalk/

The best approach to decouple the database is to: 1. Modify the current environment (E) to connect to an external RDS instance. 2. Create a new environment (A) if necessary, ensuring the database remains independent.

The task is to decouple the 2-tiers which only requires for one to become independent of the other. So creating a snapshot of the current DB and maintaining the current elastic beanstalk instance for the application, so achieve the goal.

Creating a new Elastic Beanstalk environment is not required to decouple the database. The goal is to make the database independent while keeping the current Elastic Beanstalk environment running and connected to the new standalone RDS instance.

A) Eliminated - Creating a new Elastic Beanstalk environment is not required to decouple the database. The goal is to make the database independent while keeping the current Elastic Beanstalk environment running and connected to the new standalone RDS instance.

B. Of course

These two steps that would meet the requirement to decouple the DB instance

It would be D,E These two steps that would meet the requirement to decouple the DB instance

a and b

i think so AB for me

BD, chatGTP 4

A,B ** Elastic Beanstalk Migration: Decouple RDS ** 1- Create a snapshot of RDS DB ( as a safeguard) 2- Go to the RDS console and protect the RDS databse from deletion 3- Create a new Elastic Beanstalk environement, without RDS, point your application to existing RDS 4- Perform a CNAME swap (blue/green) or Route 53 updata, confirm working 5- Terminate the old environment (RDS won't be deleted) 6- Delete CloudFormation stack (in deletefailed state)

I think CD are correct answer, no need to create and modify the current app

You can use the EB CLI or the AWS CLI to complete the steps, thus C and D

Found this in the aws docs: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2021/10/aws-elastic-beanstalk-database-decoupling-elastic-beanstalk-environment/ You can now decouple db from the beanstock using console or cli. Means we can decouple the db and change previous configuration to point to the decoupled db.

We can protect RDS DB by checking delete protection option. Once DB is protected then delete previous environment and create new one. Connect to old DB.
