AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 429

A company wants to discover, prepare, move, and integrate data from multiple sources for data analytics and machine learning.

Which AWS serverless data integration service should the company use to meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. AWS Glue
• B. AWS Data Exchange
• C. Amazon Athena
• D. Amazon EMR

Correct answer: A

Explanation

AWS Glue is a fully managed, serverless data integration service designed to discover, prepare, and combine data for analytics, machine learning, and application development. Amazon Athena is an interactive query service for analyzing S3 data, whereas Amazon EMR is a big data platform rather than a dedicated serverless integration tool. AWS Data Exchange is used for finding and consuming third-party data, making AWS Glue the correct choice.
