Data-Engineer-Associate Exam Dumps : AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate (DEA-C01)

The ecommerce company wants to migrate its data pipelines into the AWS Cloud without managing servers, and the solution must orchestrate Python and Bash scripts without refactoring code.Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (Amazon MWAA)is the most suitable solution for this scenario.

Option B: Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (Amazon MWAA)MWAA is a managed orchestration service that supportsPython and Bash scriptsvia Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) for workflows. It is a serverless, managed version of Apache Airflow, which is commonly used for orchestrating complex data workflows, making it an ideal choice for migrating existing pipelines without refactoring. It supports Python, Bash, and other scripting languages, and the company would not need to manage the underlying infrastructure.

Other options:

AWS Lambda (Option A)is more suited for event-driven workflows but would require breaking down the pipeline into individual Lambda functions, which may require refactoring.

AWS Step Functions (Option C)is good for orchestration but lacks native support for Python and Bash without using Lambda functions, and it may require code changes.

AWS Glue (Option D)is an ETL service primarily for data transformation and not suitable for orchestrating general scripts without modification.

Problem Analysis:

The company uses AWS Glue for ETL pipelines and must enforcedata quality checksduring pipeline execution.

The goal is to implement quality checks withminimal implementation effort.

Key Considerations:

AWS Glue provides anEvaluate Data Quality transformthat allows for defining quality checks directly in the pipeline.

DQDL (Data Quality Definition Language)simplifies the process by allowing declarative rule definitions.

Solution Analysis:

Option A: SQL Transform

SQL queries can implement rules but require manual effort for each rule and do not integrate natively with Glue.

Option B: Evaluate Data Quality Transform + DQDL

AWS Glue’s built-inEvaluate Data Quality transformis designed for this use case.

Allows defining thresholds and rules in DQDL with minimal coding effort.

Option C: Custom Transform with PyDeequ

PyDeequ is a powerful library but adds unnecessary complexity compared to Glue’s native features.

Option D: Custom Transform with Great Expectations

Similar to PyDeequ, Great Expectations adds operational complexity and external dependencies.

Final Recommendation:

Use theEvaluate Data Quality transformwithDQDLto implement data quality rules in AWS Glue pipelines.

The requirement involves transforming CSV files by renaming columns, removing rows, and other operations with minimal development effort.AWS Glue DataBrewis the best solution here because it allows you to visually create transformation recipes without writing extensive code.

Option D: Use AWS Glue DataBrew recipes to read and transform the CSV files.DataBrew provides a visual interface where you can build transformation steps (e.g., renaming columns, filtering rows, creating new columns, etc.) as a "recipe" that can be applied to datasets, making it easy to handle complex transformations on CSV files with minimal coding.

Other options (A, B, C) involve more manual development and configuration effort (e.g., writing Python jobs or creating custom workflows in Glue) compared to the low-code/no-code approach of DataBrew.
