AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate DEA-C01 — Topic 1 Question 51

Question

A data engineer must orchestrate a data pipeline that consists of one AWS Lambda function and one AWS Glue job. The solution must integrate with AWS services. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST management overhead?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A. The correct answer is A. Option A: Use an AWS Step Functions workflow that includes a state machine. Configure the state machine to run the Lambda function and then the AWS Glue job. AWS Lambda runs code without provisioning servers and scales automatically, which minimizes operational overhead. AWS Step Functions coordinates multi-step workflows as a managed state machine. AWS Glue is a serverless ETL and data-catalog service that prepares and integrates data.
