Selected Answer: B
AWS Glue with Athena (Option B): AWS Glue is a fully managed extract, transform, and load (ETL) service, and Athena is a serverless query service that allows you to analyze data directly in Amazon S3 using SQL queries. By configuring an AWS Glue crawler to crawl the data, you can create a schema for the data, and then use Athena to query the data directly without the need to load it into a separate database. This minimizes operational overhead.

You`ve come a loooong way...keep going... Kinesis Data Analytics applications continuously read and process streaming data in real time. Data is already at rest in S3. So Athena. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesisanalytics/latest/dev/how-it-works.html
