QuestionQ123

Data Security and Governance

A company has built a data lake and a data warehouse on AWS. The company wants to implement a data catalog to improve its current data storage solutions. The company needs the ability to add business metadata and glossary information to the data catalog for every asset.

Which solution meets these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

  • A Use AWS Glue Catalog. Create a user table for the business glossary. Use the AWS Glue API to change table properties to add business metadata. Create a web application to access the metadata.
  • B Use an Apache Hive metastore. Create a user table for the business glossary. Use the ALTER TABLE command to change table properties to add business metadata. Create a web application to access the metadata.
  • C Use Amazon DataZone. Create the business glossaries. Create metadata forms. Use the Amazon DataZone data portal to access the metadata.
  • D Use Amazon OpenSearch Service. Create an index for the business glossary. Create a second index for the business metadata. Use the OpenSearch Service dashboard to access the metadata.
Explanation

Amazon DataZone provides a managed business data catalog with a built-in data portal, business glossaries that can be associated with assets and columns, and metadata forms for adding business context to asset metadata. This avoids building and operating custom metadata tables, APIs, and a separate web application.
