3. Compliance and Audit-Focused Databases (for Regulated Activities)
In highly regulated industries (finance, healthcare, government), certain "special special database activities" are subject to stringent compliance requirements. The database supporting these activities must prioritize:

Immutability: Ensuring that once a record of an activity is created, it cannot be altered.
Verifiability: Providing cryptographic proofs or mechanisms to demonstrate data integrity and origin.
Comprehensive Audit Trails: Recording every data access, modification attempt, and state change.
Data Lineage: Tracking the origin and transformation of data points involved in an activity.
Database Technologies:

Ledger Databases: Amazon QLDB (designed specifically for immutable, verifiable transaction logs).
Blockchain Technologies (as a data layer): Hyperledger Fabric, Ethereum (for decentralized, tamper-proof records).
Append-Only Relational Tables: Using INSERT-only policies on tables, combined with database-level triggers and read-only views for historical data.
