A fraud team models citizens, vendors, and payment accounts as a network of relationships and needs a managed graph database on AWS. Which service should they identify?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Graph databases shine when the story is "who connects to whom," not just rows in a table—think a web of people, vendors, and accounts. Neptune is AWS's managed graph database for that. RDS Oracle is relational, Athena queries data lakes with SQL, and Transit Gateway connects networks—not graph queries.
Full Explanation
Amazon Neptune is a managed graph database service suited to highly connected data such as fraud or entity-relationship networks. Amazon RDS for Oracle is a relational database option, Amazon Athena is a serverless SQL query service for data in Amazon S3, and AWS Transit Gateway connects VPCs and on-premises networks—none are managed graph databases.
