I'm confident that B is the correct answer here. Routing the emails through a separate step makes the most sense to ensure they get sent out automatically when the claim is resolved.

I'm not sure about this one. I'll have to review my notes on Linux namespaces.

This question seems familiar; I remember we discussed potential increased responsibility. It makes sense that syncing might be tougher now.

This is a complex scenario, but I think option B might be the best approach. Replacing RDS with Redshift for the batch analysis and using SQS to communicate with the on-premises system could be a good way to optimize the process.

Wait, I'm a bit confused. Does the Event Structure only capture user-initiated events, or can it also detect programmatic updates?
