AWS DAS-C01 Sample Questions:
01. A company is providing analytics services to its marketing and human resources (HR) departments. The departments can only access the data through their business intelligence (BI) tools, which run Presto queries on an Amazon EMR cluster that uses the EMR File System (EMRFS).
The marketing data analyst must be granted access to the advertising table only. The HR data analyst must be granted access to the personnel table only.
Which approach will satisfy these requirements?
a) Create separate IAM roles for the marketing and HR users. Assign the roles with AWS Glue resourcebased policies to access their corresponding tables in the AWS Glue Data Catalog. Configure Presto to use the AWS Glue Data Catalog as the Apache Hive metastore.
b) Create the marketing and HR users in Apache Ranger. Create separate policies that allow access to the user's corresponding table only. Configure Presto to use Apache Ranger and an external Apache Hive metastore running in Amazon RDS.
c) Create separate IAM roles for the marketing and HR users. Configure EMR to use IAM roles for EMRFS access. Create a separate bucket for the HR and marketing data. Assign appropriate permissions so the users will only see their corresponding datasets.
d) Create the marketing and HR users in Apache Ranger. Create separate policies that allows access to the user's corresponding table only. Configure Presto to use Apache Ranger and the AWS Glue Data Catalog as the Apache Hive metastore.
02. A company ingests a large set of clickstream data in nested JSON format from different sources and stores it in Amazon S3.
Data analysts need to analyze this data in combination with data stored in an Amazon Redshift cluster. Data analysts want to build a cost-effective and automated solution for this need.
Which solution meets these requirements?
a) Use Apache Spark SQL on Amazon EMR to convert the clickstream data to a tabular format. Use the Amazon Redshift COPY command to load the data into the Amazon Redshift cluster.
b) Use AWS Lambda to convert the data to a tabular format and write it to Amazon S3. Use the Amazon Redshift COPY command to load the data into the Amazon Redshift cluster.
c) Use the Relationalize class in an AWS Glue ETL job to transform the data and write the data back to Amazon S3. Use Amazon Redshift Spectrum to create external tables and join with the internal tables.
d) Use the Amazon Redshift COPY command to move the clickstream data directly into new tables in the Amazon Redshift cluster.
03. A company needs to implement a near-real-time fraud prevention feature for its ecommerce site.
User and order details need to be delivered to an Amazon SageMaker endpoint to flag suspected fraud. The amount of input data needed for the inference could be as much as 1.5 MB.
Which solution meets the requirements with the LOWEST overall latency?
a) Create an Amazon Managed Streaming for Kafka cluster and ingest the data for each order into a topic. Use a Kafka consumer running on Amazon EC2 instances to read these messages and invoke the Amazon SageMaker endpoint.
b) Create an Amazon Kinesis Data Streams stream and ingest the data for each order into the stream. Create an AWS Lambda function to read these messages and invoke the Amazon SageMaker endpoint.
c) Create an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream and ingest the data for each order into the stream. Configure Kinesis Data Firehose to deliver the data to an Amazon S3 bucket. Trigger an AWS Lambda function with an S3 event notification to read the data and invoke the Amazon SageMaker endpoint.
d) Create an Amazon SNS topic and publish the data for each order to the topic. Subscribe the Amazon SageMaker endpoint to the SNS topic.
04. A publisher website captures user activity and sends clickstream data to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams.
The publisher wants to design a cost-effective solution to process the data to create a timeline of user activity within a session. The solution must be able to scale depending on the number of active sessions.
Which solution meets these requirements?
a) Include a variable in the clickstream data from the publisher website to maintain a counter for the number of active user sessions. Use a timestamp for the partition key for the stream. Configure the consumer application to read the data from the stream and change the number of processor threads based upon the counter. Deploy the consumer application on Amazon EC2 instances in an EC2 Auto Scaling group.
b) Include a variable in the clickstream to maintain a counter for each user action during their session. Use the action type as the partition key for the stream. Use the Kinesis Client Library (KCL) in the consumer application to retrieve the data from the stream and perform the processing. Configure the consumer application to read the data from the stream and change the number of processor threads based upon the counter. Deploy the consumer application on AWS Lambda.
c) Include a session identifier in the clickstream data from the publisher website and use as the partition key for the stream. Use the Kinesis Client Library (KCL) in the consumer application to retrieve the data from the stream and perform the processing. Deploy the consumer application on Amazon EC2 instances in an EC2 Auto Scaling group. Use an AWS Lambda function to reshard the stream based upon Amazon CloudWatch alarms.
d) Include a variable in the clickstream data from the publisher website to maintain a counter for the number of active user sessions. Use a timestamp for the partition key for the stream. Configure the consumer application to read the data from the stream and change the number of processor threads based upon the counter. Deploy the consumer application on AWS Lambda.
05. A company is currently using Amazon DynamoDB as the database for a user support application.
The company is developing a new version of the application that will store a PDF file for each support case ranging in size from 1–10 MB. The file should be retrievable whenever the case is accessed in the application.
How can the company store the file in the MOST cost-effective manner?
a) Store the file in Amazon DocumentDB and the document ID as an attribute in the DynamoDB table.
b) Store the file in Amazon S3 and the object key as an attribute in the DynamoDB table.
c) Split the file into smaller parts and store the parts as multiple items in a separate DynamoDB table.
d) Store the file as an attribute in the DynamoDB table using Base64 encoding.
06. A data engineer needs to create a dashboard to display social media trends during the last hour of a large company event. The dashboard needs to display the associated metrics with a consistent latency of less than 2 minutes.
Which solution meets these requirements?
a) Publish the raw social media data to an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream. Use Kinesis Data Analytics for SQL Applications to perform a sliding window analysis to compute the metrics and output the results to a Kinesis Data Streams data stream. Configure an AWS Lambda function to save the stream data to an Amazon DynamoDB table. Deploy a real-time dashboard hosted in an Amazon S3 bucket to read and display the metrics data stored in the DynamoDB table.
b) Publish the raw social media data to an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream. Configure the stream to deliver the data to an Amazon Elasticsearch Service cluster with a buffer interval of 0 seconds. Use Kibana to perform the analysis and display the results.
c) Publish the raw social media data to an Amazon Kinesis Data Streams data stream. Configure an AWS Lambda function to compute the metrics on the stream data and save the results in an Amazon S3 bucket. Configure a dashboard in Amazon QuickSight to query the data using Amazon Athena and display the results.
d) Publish the raw social media data to an Amazon SNS topic. Subscribe an Amazon SQS queue to the topic.
