Amazon Web Services Data-Engineer-Associate Dumps Questions Answers

Option D is correct because Amazon DynamoDB is a serverless NoSQL database that is well suited for semi-structured data, and DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) is designed to improve read performance for read-heavy applications. AWS documentation states that DAX can improve DynamoDB performance from milliseconds to microseconds, and the DynamoDB guide says DAX is most effective for applications with a high read-to-write ratio, which exactly matches this workload of infrequent writes and frequent reads.

Option A and B are incorrect because Amazon S3 and Iceberg are object storage and table-format solutions, not low-latency transactional databases for millisecond retrieval. Option C is not serverless and requires managing a database cluster, even if optimized reads improve performance. By contrast, DynamoDB is fully managed and serverless, and DAX adds the lowest-latency read path for hot data. The uploaded study guide also identifies DynamoDB as the right fit for dynamic or semi-structured data that requires low-latency access at scale.

AWS Glue is a fully managed and serverless ETL platform that supports scripts in PySpark or Python shell jobs.

Workflows in Glue orchestrate multiple job stages without infrastructure management.

“Use AWS Glue Workflows to build and orchestrate complex multi-stage ETL pipelines using serverless AWS Glue jobs.”

This meets the “serverless only” and “runs scripts” requirements precisely.
