D.
Make the Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL DB instance an on-demand DB instance.
Answers
D.
Make the Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL DB instance an on-demand DB instance.
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

This answer is correct because it meets the requirements of accommodating the larger workload without adding infrastructure and minimizing the cost. Reserved DB instances are a billing discount applied to the use of certain on-demand DB instances in your account. Reserved DB instances provide you with a significant discount compared to on-demand DB instance pricing. You can buy reserved DB instances for the total workload and choose between three payment options: No Upfront, Partial Upfront, or All Upfront. You can make the Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL DB instance larger by modifying its instance type to a higher performance class. This way, you can increase the CPU, memory, and network capacity of your DB instance and handle the increased workload.
