Q: 14
A company needs to move some on-premises Oracle databases to AWS. The company has chosen to keep some of the databases on premises for business compliance reasons. The on-premises databases contain spatial data and run cron jobs for maintenance. The company needs to connect to the on-premises systems directly from AWS to query data as a foreign table. Which solution will meet these requirements?

Option D, fits best. RDS for PostgreSQL with SCT/DMS covers migration and spatial data, plus Direct Connect supports foreign tables directly to on-prem. The rest don't really check all the boxes. Pretty sure on this one.
Is there any reason AWS DMS wouldn't work here for ongoing sync, or is the foreign data requirement all about direct querying? The question mentions querying on-prem as a foreign table, so I get why Direct Connect and FDW would be needed. Just making sure I'm not missing something obvious in the scenario.
D , saw a similar setup in labs. PostgreSQL with Direct Connect ticks the foreign table and spatial boxes easily.
