An organization has a persistently high amount of throughput. It requires connectivity with no jitter and very low latency between its on-premise infrastructure and its AWS cloud build to support live streaming and real-time services. What is the MOST appropriate solution to meet this requirement?

Answer options:

A.AWS Data Streams
B.AWS Kinesis
C.Kinesis Data Firehose
D.AWS Direct Connect

Correct Answer – D
AWS Direct Connect is a cloud service solution that makes it easy to establish a dedicated network connection from the organization’s premises to AWS. The service provides a dedicated network connection with one of the AWS Direct Connect locations. It makes it possible to guaranteed high bandwidth and very low latency connectivity.

Option A is INCORRECT because the scenarios require a connectivity option. But Amazon Kinesis Data Streams (KDS) is a massively scalable and durable real-time data streaming service. It does not guarantee the quality of connectivity between the organizations on-premise infrastructure and the AWS cloud build. The dataKDS collects is available in milliseconds to enable real-time analytics use cases such as real-time dashboards, real-time anomaly detection, dynamic pricing, and more.

Option B is INCORRECT because the organization requires a connectivity solution and not an application service. Amazon Kinesis makes it easy to collect, process, and analyze real-time, streaming data to get timely insights and react quickly to new information.

Option C is INCORRECT because Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose is used to load streaming data into various destinations like data lakes, data stores and analytics tools. However, the service does not guarantee link quality between the organization’s on-premise infrastructure and the AWS cloud.
