AWS Certified Data Engineer Associate DEA-C01 Practice Question
A data engineer needs to automate validation of sensor data that lands as CSV files in an S3 bucket. The temperature column must contain numeric values between -50 and 180 °F; any rows outside this range should be isolated for later inspection. The solution must be serverless, require minimal custom code, and run as part of the daily ingestion pipeline before downstream analytics in Amazon Athena. Which approach best meets these requirements while ensuring data accuracy?
Require analysts to include a CASE expression in every Athena query that filters out temperature values below -50 or above 180 °F.
Load the files into Amazon Redshift and define a CHECK constraint on the temperature column so COPY rejects any out-of-range rows.
Enable Amazon S3 Object Lock on the landing bucket to block uploads containing temperature values outside the accepted range.
Create an AWS Glue DataBrew profile and recipe with a numeric range rule for the temperature column, then schedule the DataBrew job to export invalid rows to a quarantine S3 prefix.
AWS Glue DataBrew provides a no-code, serverless environment where engineers can define data quality rules such as numeric range checks. A DataBrew job can be scheduled to run when new objects arrive in Amazon S3 and automatically write non-conforming rows to a separate S3 location, preventing inaccurate data from flowing into Athena queries. S3 Object Lock offers retention controls, not field-level validation. Redshift CHECK constraints occur after data is loaded into the warehouse and would not protect Athena consumers. Relying on analysts to add CASE logic in every Athena query is manual, error-prone, and does not automate validation within the pipeline.
