SAP-C02 Question #815: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

A company uses a software package for surveys. During surveys, data is uploaded from a field operator's device to an Amazon S3 bucket. A custom application that runs on several Amazon EC2 instances polls the S3 bucket for new data. When new data is available, the software processes the data. The data uploads are infrequent. The processing software can take up to 25 minutes to analyze each data upload. The company wants to optimize the application workflow to process the S3 data. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

Options

• AModify the application to accept new S3 object keys as inputs. Containerize the application.
• BModify the application to accept new S3 object keys as inputs. Containerize the application.
• CModify the application to accept new S3 object keys as inputs. Move the application from EC2
• DModify the application to use HTTP to poll new S3 object keys that reference data to process.

Explanation

Moving the application to AWS Fargate with Amazon ECS provides an efficient, serverless solution where you don't need to manage EC2 instances. Fargate automatically handles the scaling and management of resources. Configuring S3 bucket notifications to send events to EventBridge ensures that the system responds immediately when new data is uploaded to S3. Using EventBridge to invoke ECS tasks eliminates the need for manual polling, reducing operational overhead and optimizing the workflow for processing data uploads.
