Question 96
A mortgage company has a microservice for accepting payments. This microservice uses the Amazon DynamoDB encryption client with AWS KMS managed keys to encrypt the sensitive data before writing the data to DynamoDB. The finance team should be able to load this data into Amazon Redshift and aggregate the values within the sensitive fields. The Amazon Redshift cluster is shared with other data analysts from different business units.
Which steps should a data analyst take to accomplish this task efficiently and securely?
Question 97
A company is planning to create a data lake in Amazon S3. The company wants to create tiered storage based on access patterns and cost objectives. The solution must include support for JDBC connections from legacy clients, metadata management that allows federation for access control, and batch-based ETL using PySpark and Scala Operational management should be limited.
Which combination of components can meet these requirements? (Choose three.)
Question 98
A company wants to optimize the cost of its data and analytics platform. The company is ingesting a number of
.csv and JSON files in Amazon S3 from various data sources. Incoming data is expected to be 50 GB each day. The company is using Amazon Athena to query the raw data in Amazon S3 directly. Most queries aggregate data from the past 12 months, and data that is older than 5 years is infrequently queried. The typical query scans about 500 MB of data and is expected to return results in less than 1 minute. The raw data must be retained indefinitely for compliance requirements.
Which solution meets the company's requirements?
Question 99
A global pharmaceutical company receives test results for new drugs from various testing facilities worldwide.
The results are sent in millions of 1 KB-sized JSON objects to an Amazon S3 bucket owned by the company.
The data engineering team needs to process those files, convert them into Apache Parquet format, and load them into Amazon Redshift for data analysts to perform dashboard reporting. The engineering team uses AWS Glue to process the objects, AWS Step Functions for process orchestration, and Amazon CloudWatch for job scheduling.
More testing facilities were recently added, and the time to process files is increasing.
What will MOST efficiently decrease the data processing time?
Question 100
A marketing company wants to improve its reporting and business intelligence capabilities. During the planning phase, the company interviewed the relevant stakeholders, and discovered that:
* The operations team reports are run hourly for the current month's data.
* The sales team wants to use multiple Amazon QuickSight dashboards to show a rolling view of the last
30 days based on several categories. The sales team also wants to view the data as soon as it reaches the reporting backend.
* The finance team's reports are run daily for last month's data and once a month for the last 24 months of
* data.
Currently, there is 400 TB of data in the system with an expected additional 100 TB added every month. The company is looking for a solution that is as cost-effective as possible.
Which solution meets the company's requirements?
