Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C02 topic 1 question 226 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C02
Question #: 226
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C02 Questions]

A company's near-real-time streaming application is running on AWS. As the data is ingested, a job runs on the data and takes 30 minutes to complete. The workload frequently experiences high latency due to large amounts of incoming data. A solutions architect needs to design a scalable and serverless solution to enhance performance.
Which combination of steps should the solutions architect take? (Choose two.)

  • A. Use Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to ingest the data.
  • B. Use AWS Lambda with AWS Step Functions to process the data.
  • C. Use AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) to ingest the data.
  • D. Use Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group to process the data.
  • E. Use AWS Fargate with Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) to process the data.

The solution is A and E There are 2 ingestion and 3 processor Since the near real-time we choose Firehose - A - First step We are left with processor, B , D and E We know lambda can run max for 15 min and the job is of 30 min so lambda is out. https://aws.amazon.com/lambda/faqs/#:~:text=AWS%20Lambda%20functions%20can%20be,1%20second%20and%2015%20minutes. We are left with D and E Both will work but the question specifies serverless hence E - step 2 https://aws.amazon.com/fargate/?whats-new-cards.sort-by=item.additionalFields.postDateTime&whats-new-cards.sort-order=desc&fargate-blogs.sort-by=item.additionalFields.createdDate&fargate-blogs.sort-order=desc So A and E is the solution

Kinesis Data Firehose load data streams into AWS data stores such as S3, Amazon Redshift and ElastiSearch. Transform data using lambda functions and store failed data to another S3 bucket.

B is out of the question. Lambda timeouts at 15 mins but the job here takes 30 so can't use this here.

https://aws.amazon.com/kinesis/data-firehose/ A for obvious reasons. E is impossible to be integrated with Firehose, but it might be possible to split the long running job into smaller functions and use Lambda step function which CAN be integrated with Firehose. So, between the impossible E and might be possible B, I would choose B as the possible right option.

what about lambda being able to run only 15 mins jobs?

Step functions can be used to eliminate Lambda’s time limitation by having workflows of sequential function calls. https://medium.com/swlh/aws-step-functions-and-lambda-5a649d255a6 https://aws.amazon.com/getting-started/hands-on/create-a-serverless-workflow-step-functions-lambda/

Which actions should the solutions architect do in combination? Meaning one option for Ingest data and other for Process data.. So remove C and D, so A is fixed as only one Ingest option. Now between B and E for process option B is less likely even though Step functions can over come the 15 min restriction of Lambda.. its more like a hack and not the normal way of doing.. so A and E...

Firehose cannot ingest data.. it is Kinesis Data streams.. firehose can only load data to S3..etc..so.....

A, E. Lambda ruled out due to 15 min runtime restrictions. EC2 is not server less. Not sure about DMS but less likely....
