Question
A solutions architect is building a web application that uses an Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL DB instance The DB instance is expected to receive many more reads than writes.

Options
- ACreate multiple read replicas and put them into an Auto Scaling group.
- BCreate multiple read replicas in different Availability Zones.
- CCreate an Amazon Route 53 hosted zone and a record set for each read replica with a TTL and a
- DCreate an Application Load Balancer (ALB) and put the read replicas behind the ALB.
- EConfigure an Amazon CloudWatch alarm to detect a failed read replica. Set the alarm to directly
- FConfigure an Amazon Route 53 health check for each read replica using its endpoint

Explanation
https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/requests-rds-read-replicas/ You can use Amazon Route 53 weighted record sets to distribute requests across your read replicas. Within a Route 53 hosted zone, create individual record sets for each DNS endpoint associated with your read replicas and give them the same weight. Then, direct requests to the endpoint of the record set. You can incorporate Route 53 health checks to be sure that Route 53 directs traffic away from unavailable read replicas
