A media content company has a streaming playback application. The company wants to collect and analyze the data to provide near-real-time feedback on playback issues. The company needs to consume this data and return results within 30 seconds according to the service-level agreement (SLA). The company needs the consumer to identify playback issues, such as quality during a specified timeframe. The data will be emitted as JSON and may change schemas over time.
Which solution will allow the company to collect data for processing while meeting these requirements?
Correct Answer:D

A media company has been performing analytics on log data generated by its applications. There has been a recent increase in the number of concurrent analytics jobs running, and the overall performance of existing jobs is decreasing as the number of new jobs is increasing. The partitioned data is stored in Amazon S3 One Zone-Infrequent Access (S3 One Zone-IA) and the analytic processing is performed on Amazon EMR clusters using the EMR File System (EMRFS) with consistent view enabled. A data analyst has determined that it is taking longer for the EMR task nodes to list objects in Amazon S3.
Which action would MOST likely increase the performance of accessing log data in Amazon S3?
Correct Answer:C

A large company receives files from external parties in Amazon EC2 throughout the day. At the end of the day, the files are combined into a single file, compressed into a gzip file, and uploaded to Amazon S3. The total size of all the files is close to 100 GB daily. Once the files are uploaded to Amazon S3, an AWS Batch program executes a COPY command to load the files into an Amazon Redshift cluster.
Which program modification will accelerate the COPY process?
Correct Answer:B
A company wants to improve user satisfaction for its smart home system by adding more features to its recommendation engine. Each sensor asynchronously pushes its nested JSON data into Amazon Kinesis Data Streams using the Kinesis Producer Library (KPL) in Java. Statistics from a set of failed sensors showed that, when a sensor is malfunctioning, its recorded data is not always sent to the cloud.
The company needs a solution that offers near-real-time analytics on the data from the most updated sensors. Which solution enables the company to meet these requirements?
Correct Answer:B

The KPL can incur an additional processing delay of up to RecordMaxBufferedTime within the library (user-configurable). Larger values of RecordMaxBufferedTime results in higher packing efficiencies and better performance. Applications that cannot tolerate this additional delay may need to use the AWS SDK directly.
A company uses Amazon Redshift for its data warehousing needs. ETL jobs run every night to load data, apply business rules, and create aggregate tables for reporting. The company's data analysis, data science, and business intelligence teams use the data warehouse during regular business hours. The workload management is set to auto, and separate queues exist for each team with the priority set to NORMAL.
Recently, a sudden spike of read queries from the data analysis team has occurred at least twice daily, and queries wait in line for cluster resources. The company needs a solution that enables the data analysis team to avoid query queuing without impacting latency and the query times of other teams.
Which solution meets these requirements?
Correct Answer:D
