The correct answer is B) It means the service automatically maintains a synchronous standby replica in a different Availability Zone, providing automatic failover for high availability in case the primary fails
B
Correct Answer
It means the service automatically maintains a synchronous standby replica in a different Availability Zone, providing automatic failover for high availability in case the primary fails
Explanation
RDS Multi-AZ deployments maintain a synchronously replicated standby in another AZ; if the primary instance fails, RDS automatically fails over to the standby, minimizing downtime.
