AWS SAA-C03 · Question 31 · Domain 2.3: Decoupling Mechanisms

A company needs to ingest streaming clickstream data from their website. The data needs to be buffered and then loaded into Amazon S3 in batches every 5 minutes. Which TWO services can be combined to achieve this with the LEAST operational overhead? (Select TWO.)

Answer options:

A.

Amazon Kinesis Data Streams

B.

Amazon SQS

C.

Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose

D.

AWS Lambda

E.

Amazon EMR

How to approach this question

Identify the ingestion service (Data Streams) and the delivery service (Firehose).

Full Answer

Kinesis Data Streams and Kinesis Data Firehose.
Amazon Kinesis Data Streams can ingest the raw clickstream data. Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose can be attached to the stream to automatically buffer the data (e.g., for 5 minutes) and deliver it to Amazon S3 with zero administration.

Common mistakes

Choosing Lambda to write to S3, which adds unnecessary custom code overhead.
