QuestionQ149

Data Store Management

A company plans to migrate an application and an on-premises Apache Kafka server to AWS. The application handles incremental updates that an on-premises Oracle database sends to the Kafka server. The company wants to use the replatform migration strategy rather than the refactor strategy.

Which solution meets these requirements with the LEAST management overhead?

  • A Amazon Kinesis Data Streams
  • B Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) provisioned cluster
  • C Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose
  • D Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) Serverless
Explanation

Amazon MSK Serverless preserves Apache Kafka compatibility, allowing Kafka clients and applications to run without refactoring to a different streaming platform. It automatically provisions and scales cluster capacity and manages topic partitions, eliminating the capacity-management work required for a provisioned MSK cluster.
