Answer: Dedicated Hosts

The correct answer is C, Dedicated Hosts. When using Dedicated Hosts, you have full control over the host, including the ability to bring your existing server-bound software licenses, such as Microsoft SQL Server, and run them on these dedicated instances. This allows you to leverage your existing licenses and maintain compliance with licensing requirements while running your databases on EC2 instances in the AWS Cloud. Although Dedicated Instances and EC2 instances with default tenancy using Microsoft License Mobility through Software Assurance can also be used, Dedicated Hosts provide more control over the underlying infrastructure and visibility into the physical host, which is beneficial for running databases with high performance requirements.
