Question

A technology company is creating a dashboard that will visualize and analyze time-sensitive data. The data will come in through Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose with the butter interval set to 60 seconds. The dashboard must support near-real-time data. Which visualization solution will meet these requirements?

Options

  • ASelect Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES) as the endpoint for Kinesis Data Firehose.
  • BSelect Amazon S3 as the endpoint for Kinesis Data Firehose.
  • CSelect Amazon Redshift as the endpoint for Kinesis Data Firehose.
  • DSelect Amazon S3 as the endpoint for Kinesis Data Firehose.

Explanation

Amazon OpenSearch Service (formerly Amazon Elasticsearch Service) is the correct Firehose destination for near-real-time dashboards. Firehose can stream directly into an OpenSearch/ES index, and Kibana (bundled with ES) provides live dashboards that refresh as data arrives - achieving near-real-time visualization aligned with the 60-second buffer. Options B and D both select Amazon S3 as the endpoint; S3 is a storage destination that requires a separate query layer (like Athena) and has no native near-real-time dashboard capability. Option C (Redshift) involves batch loading and SQL querying, which adds latency unsuitable for near-real-time requirements.
