AWS Certified Developer Associate Practice Test 6

Correct answers - "RDS database defined externally and referenced through environment variables & ElastiCache defined in .ebextensions/ : Any resources created as part of your .ebextensions is part of your CloudFormation template and will get deleted if the environment is terminated. Resources that need to persist environments deletions must be created externally": .

Incorrect:

"RDS database defined in .ebextensions/" - The lifetime of the RDS instance is tied to the lifetime of the Elastic Beanstalk environment

"ElastiCache database defined externally and referenced through environment variables" - In this case we do not care that data is lost so defining it in .ebextensions/ is more appropriate

"ElastiCache bundled with the application source code" - ElastiCache is a service and cannot be bundled
