The development team at a health-care company is planning to migrate their infrastructure from an on-premises data center to the AWS Cloud. As part of this migration, they are exploring the use of Amazon RDS (Relational Database Service) to serve as the database tier for their primary application.
Given this scenario, which of the following statements about Amazon RDS Multi-AZ deployments are accurate? (Select two)
A
For automated backups, I/O activity is suspended on your primary DB since backups are not taken from standby DB
B
Amazon RDS automatically initiates a failover to the standby, in case primary database fails for any reason
C
To enhance read scalability, a Multi-AZ standby instance can be used to serve read requests
D
RDS applies OS updates by performing maintenance on the standby, then promoting the standby to primary and finally performing maintenance on the old primary, which becomes the new standby
E
Updates to your DB Instance are asynchronously replicated across the Availability Zone to the standby in order to keep both in sync
