D is a clever idea, but it feels like a bit of a workaround. A is the more straightforward solution to this problem.

I'm not sure, but I think option B could also work. Snapshot deletion policy might be a good choice.

Haha, C is just trying to save the whole stack, not the specific resource we need to keep. Nice try, but A is the way to go.

Hmm, not sure about this one. I was considering B, but Retain seems like the better option to preserve the DynamoDB table.

Wow, this question really tests our AWS knowledge! I think the answer is A - adding a Retain deletion policy to the DynamoDB resource. That way, the table won't be deleted when the stack is removed.

I agree with Roselle. Adding a Retain deletion policy will prevent the DynamoDB table from being deleted.
