Amazon BDS-C00 Exam - Topic 1 Question 73 Discussion

An organization uses Amazon Elastic MapReduce (EMR) to process a series of extract-transform-load (ETL) steps that run in sequence. The output of each step must be fully processed in subsequent steps but will not be retained.Which of the following techniques will meet this requirement most efficiently?
C) Define the ETL steps as separate AWS Data Pipeline activities.
A) Use the EMR File System (EMRFS) to store the outputs from each step as objects in Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3).
B) Use the s3n URI to story the data to be processes as objects in Amazon S3.
D) Load the data to be processed into HDFS and then write the final output to Amazon S3.

Isn't s3n outdated? I thought we moved on from that.

I’m leaning towards option C with AWS Data Pipeline, but I’m uncertain if it’s necessary for just sequential ETL steps.

I practiced a similar question where we had to choose between S3 and HDFS, and I think S3 might be better for temporary outputs since it’s easier to manage.

I remember studying EMRFS and how it integrates with S3, but I'm not sure if it's the best choice for this scenario since the outputs aren't retained.

Based on the information provided, I think increasing the number of shards and the memory allocation are the two actions that would be most likely to improve the processing speed.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not super familiar with the specifics of Automation Studio and Journey Builder, so I'll need to think it through carefully. I'm leaning towards the File Drop Entry Source in Journey Builder, since that seems like it would be a good fit for handling the file drop and triggering the email notifications. But I'll want to double-check the details on each option.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. The options seem a bit similar, and I'm not super familiar with the OWS platform. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Using EMRFS to store the outputs in S3 is definitely the way to go. I mean, who wants to be the one to tell the boss they used the 's3n' URI? That's like pulling a Betamax in the age of Netflix.

Loading the data into HDFS and then writing the final output to S3 seems like overkill for this use case, where we don't need to retain the intermediate data.

Defining the ETL steps as separate AWS Data Pipeline activities could work, but it might add unnecessary complexity compared to the EMRFS approach.

I'm not sure s3n URI is the right choice here, as it doesn't seem to address the requirement of not retaining the data locally.
