A company uses Amazon Redshift as its data warehouse A new table includes some columns that contain sensitive data and some columns that contain non-sensitive data The data in the table eventually will be referenced by several existing queries that run many times each day
A data analytics specialist must ensure that only members of the company's auditing team can read the columns that contain sensitive data All other users must have read-only access to the columns that contain non-sensitive data
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?
Correct Answer:B

A company has an encrypted Amazon Redshift cluster. The company recently enabled Amazon Redshift audit logs and needs to ensure that the audit logs are also encrypted at rest. The logs are retained for 1 year. The auditor queries the logs once a month.
What is the MOST cost-effective way to meet these requirements?
Correct Answer:A
An airline has .csv-formatted data stored in Amazon S3 with an AWS Glue Data Catalog. Data analysts want to join this data with call center data stored in Amazon Redshift as part of a dally batch process. The Amazon Redshift cluster is already under a heavy load. The solution must be managed, serverless, well-functioning, and minimize the load on the existing Amazon Redshift cluster. The solution should also require minimal effort and development activity.
Which solution meets these requirements?
Correct Answer:C

A company that monitors weather conditions from remote construction sites is setting up a solution to collect temperature data from the following two weather stations.
Station A, which has 10 sensors
Station B, which has five sensors
These weather stations were placed by onsite subject-matter experts.
Each sensor has a unique ID. The data collected from each sensor will be collected using Amazon Kinesis Data Streams.
Based on the total incoming and outgoing data throughput, a single Amazon Kinesis data stream with two shards is created. Two partition keys are created based on the station names. During testing, there is a bottleneck on data coming from Station A, but not from Station B. Upon review, it is confirmed that the total stream throughput is still less than the allocated Kinesis Data Streams throughput.
How can this bottleneck be resolved without increasing the overall cost and complexity of the solution, while retaining the data collection quality requirements?
Correct Answer:C

"Splitting increases the number of shards in your stream and therefore increases the data capacity of the stream. Because you are charged on a per-shard basis, splitting increases the cost of your stream"
A healthcare company uses AWS data and analytics tools to collect, ingest, and store electronic health record (EHR) data about its patients. The raw EHR data is stored in Amazon S3 in JSON format partitioned by hour, day, and year and is updated every hour. The company wants to maintain the data catalog and metadata in an AWS Glue Data Catalog to be able to access the data using Amazon Athena or Amazon Redshift Spectrum for analytics.
When defining tables in the Data Catalog, the company has the following requirements:
Choose the catalog table name and do not rely on the catalog table naming algorithm. Keep the table updated with new partitions loaded in the respective S3 bucket prefixes.
Which solution meets these requirements with minimal effort?
Correct Answer:C
Updating Manually Created Data Catalog Tables Using Crawlers: To do this, when you define a crawler, instead of specifying one or more data stores as the source of a crawl, you specify one or more existing Data Catalog tables. The crawler then crawls the data stores specified by the catalog tables. In this case, no new tables are created; instead, your manually created tables are updated.
