Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

✓

Full load with ongoing replication (change data capture)

Ongoing replication (change data capture) allows DMS to keep the target database in sync with the source, minimizing downtime. Options A, B, D are incorrect because full load only, one-time restore, or snapshot restore do not minimize downtime.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • ✗

    Snapshot restore to Amazon RDS

    Why it's wrong here

    Snapshot restore is a one-time operation, not minimal downtime.

  • ✗

    Full load with one-time restore

    Why it's wrong here

    Not a DMS method; one-time restore requires downtime.

  • ✓

    Full load with ongoing replication (change data capture)

    Why this is correct

    Ongoing replication syncs changes, minimizing downtime.

  • ✗

    Full load only

    Why it's wrong here

    Full load requires downtime for data consistency.
