Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 676 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03
Question #: 676
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 Questions]

A company's application uses Network Load Balancers, Auto Scaling groups, Amazon EC2 instances, and databases that are deployed in an Amazon VPC. The company wants to capture information about traffic to and from the network interfaces in near real time in its Amazon VPC. The company wants to send the information to Amazon OpenSearch Service for analysis.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • A. Create a log group in Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Configure VPC Flow Logs to send the log data to the log group. Use Amazon Kinesis Data Streams to stream the logs from the log group to OpenSearch Service.
  • B. Create a log group in Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Configure VPC Flow Logs to send the log data to the log group. Use Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to stream the logs from the log group to OpenSearch Service.
  • C. Create a trail in AWS CloudTrail. Configure VPC Flow Logs to send the log data to the trail. Use Amazon Kinesis Data Streams to stream the logs from the trail to OpenSearch Service.
  • D. Create a trail in AWS CloudTrail. Configure VPC Flow Logs to send the log data to the trail. Use Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to stream the logs from the trail to OpenSearch Service.

Selected Answer: B
CloudTrail is for logging administrative actions, we need CloudWatch. We want the data in another AWS service (OpenSearch), not Kinesis, thus we need Firehose, not Streams.

Selected Answer: B
Amazon CloudWatch Logs and VPC Flow Logs (Option B): VPC Flow Logs capture information about the IP traffic going to and from network interfaces in a VPC. By configuring VPC Flow Logs to send the log data to a log group in Amazon CloudWatch Logs, you can then use Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to stream the logs from the log group to Amazon OpenSearch Service for analysis. This approach provides near real-time streaming of logs to the analytics service.

base on the research, it should be Answer A, because question is asking for a "near real time" which Kinesis Data Stream is offering the data with less than 1 second latency. But Kinese Data Firehost is offering the data with more than 1 second. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/opensearch-service/latest/developerguide/integrations.html#integrations-kinesis https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44608274/is-there-any-difference-in-processing-times-between-aws-kinesis-firehose-and-str https://docs.aws.amazon.com/streams/latest/dev/using-other-services-cw-logs.html

While Amazon Kinesis Data Streams can stream data, it requires additional setup (e.g., Lambda functions) to process and send logs to OpenSearch Service. This adds complexity compared to Kinesis Data Firehose, which is purpose-built for this use case.

Selected Answer: B
OpenSearch patterns for CloudWatch Logs: 1) "Near Real Time": CloudWatch logs --> Subscription Filter --> Kinesis Data Firehose --> Amazon OpenSearch (option *B*) 2) "Real Time": CloudWatch logs --> Subscription Filter --> Lambda --> Amazon OpenSearch
