Amazon BDS-C00 Exam - Topic 3 Question 105 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's BDS-C00 exam

Question #: 105
Topic #: 3

A large oil and gas company needs to provide near real-time alerts when peak thresholds are exceeded in its pipeline system. The company has developed a system to capture pipeline metrics such as flow rate, pressure and temperature using millions of sensors. The sensors deliver to AWS IoT.

What is a cost-effective way to provide near real-time alerts on the pipeline metrics?

ACreate an AWS IoT rule to generate an Amazon SNS notification

BStore the data points in an Amazon DynamoDB table and polite peak metrics data from an Amazon EC2 application

CCreate an Amazon Machine Learning model and invoke with AWS Lambda

DUse Amazon Kinesis Streams and a KCL-based application deployed on AWS Elastic Beanstalk

B sounds inefficient, why store data if you just need alerts?

Surprised they didn't mention using Kinesis, it's great for streaming data!

I recall we practiced a similar question where we used SNS for alerts. Option A seems like the best fit for quick notifications based on the metrics.

I feel like storing data in DynamoDB (option B) could work, but it might not be the most cost-effective for real-time alerts. I need to think more about that.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about using Kinesis for real-time data processing. Option D might be the right choice, but it feels a bit complex.

I think option A sounds familiar since we discussed using AWS IoT rules for notifications in class. It seems like a straightforward approach.

Option A looks like the simplest solution - using an AWS IoT rule to generate an SNS notification. That could be a good way to get near real-time alerts without too much overhead. I'll make sure to read the details carefully.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. There are a few options presented, and I'm not sure which one would be the most cost-effective. I'll need to think through the pros and cons of each approach.

The DynamoDB and EC2 option (B) seems interesting, but I'm not sure how that would compare in cost and performance to the other choices. I'll need to do some research on the tradeoffs between the different approaches.

I leaned towards option B during the study sessions, but now I'm questioning if there might be aspects related to service restoration as well.

Option A is the way to go. Anything else is just gilding the lily. Although, I do wonder if the sensors are made by BP - they seem to have a knack for leaks.

Kinesis Streams and Elastic Beanstalk could work, but it's probably more elaborate than necessary. Why not go with the simpler IoT-based solution?

Creating a machine learning model and invoking it with Lambda might be overkill for this use case. The problem doesn't seem to require advanced analytics.
