AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 Practice Question
A financial institution requires an analytics service to create interactive dashboards displaying real-time transaction data from its relational database. The solution should facilitate easy and rapid report generation without the need for provisioning or managing infrastructure. Which service should they use?
The service best suited for this task is Amazon QuickSight. It is a fully managed business intelligence service that enables the creation of interactive visualizations and dashboards. As it is serverless, it does not require provisioning or managing infrastructure, aligning with the financial institution's needs. It can connect directly to a relational database, facilitating real-time data reporting with minimal effort. The three incorrect options, while valuable in their domains, do not specialize in visualization. Athena is for SQL querying of data in S3, EMR is a big data processing service, and Glue is intended for serverless ETL workloads, none of which intrinsically offer dashboarding or reporting capabilities inherent to a visualization tool.
