A Regional Energy Company Collects Voltage Data from Sensors Attached

question 18

Multiple Choice

A regional energy company collects voltage data from sensors attached to buildings. To address any known dangerous conditions, the company wants to be alerted when a sequence of two voltage drops is detected within 10 minutes of a voltage spike at the same building. It is important to ensure that all messages are delivered as quickly as possible. The system must be fully managed and highly available. The company also needs a solution that will automatically scale up as it covers additional cites with this monitoring feature. The alerting system is subscribed to an Amazon SNS topic for remediation. Which solution meets these requirements?

• A) Create an Amazon Managed Streaming for Kafka cluster to ingest the data, and use an Apache Spark Streaming with Apache Kafka consumer API in an automatically scaled Amazon EMR cluster to process the incoming data. Use the Spark Streaming application to detect the known event sequence and send the SNS message.
• B) Create a REST-based web service using Amazon API Gateway in front of an AWS Lambda function. Create an Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL database with sufficient Provisioned IOPS (PIOPS). In the Lambda function, store incoming events in the RDS database and query the latest data to detect the known event sequence and send the SNS message.
• C) Create an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream to capture the incoming sensor data. Use an AWS Lambda transformation function to detect the known event sequence and send the SNS message.
• D) Create an Amazon Kinesis data stream to capture the incoming sensor data and create another stream for alert messages. Set up AWS Application Auto Scaling on both. Create a Kinesis Data Analytics for Java application to detect the known event sequence, and add a message to the message stream. Configure an AWS Lambda function to poll the message stream and publish to the SNS topic.
