Question 114 - DEA-C01 discussion

Report
Export

A telecommunications company collects network usage data throughout each day at a rate of several thousand data points each second. The company runs an application to process the usage data in real time. The company aggregates and stores the data in an Amazon Aurora DB instance.

Sudden drops in network usage usually indicate a network outage. The company must be able to identify sudden drops in network usage so the company can take immediate remedial actions.

Which solution will meet this requirement with the LEAST latency?

A.

Create an AWS Lambda function to query Aurora for drops in network usage. Use Amazon EventBridge to automatically invoke the Lambda function every minute.

Answers
A.

Create an AWS Lambda function to query Aurora for drops in network usage. Use Amazon EventBridge to automatically invoke the Lambda function every minute.

B.

Modify the processing application to publish the data to an Amazon Kinesis data stream. Create an Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink (previously known as Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics) application to detect drops in network usage.

Answers
B.

Modify the processing application to publish the data to an Amazon Kinesis data stream. Create an Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink (previously known as Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics) application to detect drops in network usage.

C.

Replace the Aurora database with an Amazon DynamoDB table. Create an AWS Lambda function to query the DynamoDB table for drops in network usage every minute. Use DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) between the processing application and DynamoDB table.

Answers
C.

Replace the Aurora database with an Amazon DynamoDB table. Create an AWS Lambda function to query the DynamoDB table for drops in network usage every minute. Use DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) between the processing application and DynamoDB table.

D.

Create an AWS Lambda function within the Database Activity Streams feature of Aurora to detect drops in network usage.

Answers
D.

Create an AWS Lambda function within the Database Activity Streams feature of Aurora to detect drops in network usage.

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The telecommunications company needs a low-latency solution to detect sudden drops in network usage from real-time data collected throughout the day.

Option B: Modify the processing application to publish the data to an Amazon Kinesis data stream. Create an Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink (Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics) application to detect drops in network usage. Using Amazon Kinesis with Managed Service for Apache Flink (formerly Kinesis Data Analytics) is ideal for real-time stream processing with minimal latency. Flink can analyze the incoming data stream in real-time and detect anomalies, such as sudden drops in usage, which makes it the best fit for this scenario.

Other options (A, C, and D) either introduce unnecessary delays (e.g., querying databases) or do not provide the same real-time, low-latency processing that is critical for this use case.
