You are currently managing an AWS RDS instance for your company. You need to be notified whenever the backup occurs for the AWS RDS database. How can you accomplish this in the easiest way possible? Choose 2 answers from the options given below.

Answer options:

A.Subscribe to AWS RDS Events service.
B.Create an SQS queue for the event messages.
C.Create an SNS topic.
D.Add a Lambda trigger to the AWS RDS database.

Correct Answers: A and C
 This is mentioned in the AWS Documentation.
Amazon RDS groups these events into categories that you can subscribe to get notified when an event in that category occurs. You can subscribe to an event category for a DB instance, DB cluster, DB snapshot, DB cluster snapshot, DB security group, or DB parameter group. For example, if you subscribe to the Backup category for a given DB instance, you will be notified whenever a backup-related event affects the DB instance. If you subscribe to a Configuration Change category for a DB security group, you will be notified when the DB security group is changed. You will also receive a notification when an event notification subscription changes.
Option B is incorrect because SQS is used as the messaging service. You need to use SNS topics for notifications.
Option D is incorrect because you need to subscribe to AWS RDS events.
