When comparing managed database services to compute services where the customer provisions virtual servers, which statement correctly summarizes the shift in operational responsibility?
Customers are responsible for physical hardware maintenance with compute services, whereas AWS assumes this responsibility with its managed database offerings.
The level of responsibility for the customer and AWS remains constant whether using managed database services or compute services where the customer maintains virtual servers.
AWS’s responsibility is diminished with managed database services, as the customer must oversee patching and upgrades, just as they would with provisioned compute services.
With managed database services, AWS takes on more of the database management tasks typically handled by the customer with compute services where they control virtual servers.
Managed database services, like the offering for relational databases, provide a higher level of managed service by AWS, including tasks such as database setup, patching, and backups, thus offloading these responsibilities from the customer. In contrast, compute services where customers launch their own virtual servers demand the customers to manage operating systems, any installed applications, and potential databases on those virtual servers, which means a higher level of responsibility compared to managed database services.
