ACA Database Practice Test with Latest Exam Questions 2026

The Alibaba Cloud Certified Associate Database certification validates entry level skills in using Alibaba Cloud database services. It begins with database fundamentals such as relational concepts, SQL, transactions and ACID properties, along with NoSQL models like key value, document and wide column stores. Candidates then learn the Alibaba Cloud database portfolio, including ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server and MariaDB, the cloud native PolarDB, ApsaraDB for Redis, MongoDB and HBase, and analytical services such as AnalyticDB. Operational topics include instance specifications, accounts and network access with VPC and whitelists, backup and restore, read only instances, high availability, monitoring, parameter tuning, security, DTS migration and DMS management.

The ACA Database certification suits developers, junior DBAs and cloud engineers who work with data on Alibaba Cloud. It is a good starting point before advancing to the ACP Database level. Alibaba Cloud certifications are especially valued in China and across Asia Pacific, where the platform has a large market share.

Here is how the main areas break down. Database Fundamentals covers relational database concepts, SQL basics, transactions and ACID; and noSQL concepts: key value, document, wide column. Within Alibaba Cloud Database Portfolio, candidates should be comfortable with apsaraDB RDS (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, MariaDB); polarDB cloud native database; and apsaraDB for Redis, MongoDB and HBase. ApsaraDB RDS Operations focuses on instance creation, specifications and storage; accounts, databases and network access (VPC, whitelists); and backup, restore and read only instances. The Database Security area includes access control, SSL encryption, TDE and auditing.

For each area, collect key definitions, a few examples and the mistakes you made in practice, then review them weekly. Close your preparation with at least two complete timed practice sessions and a careful review of every missed question.
