AWS Certified Machine Learning – Specialty — Question 133

A company is launching a new product and needs to build a mechanism to monitor comments about the company and its new product on social media. The company needs to be able to evaluate the sentiment expressed in social media posts, and visualize trends and configure alarms based on various thresholds.
The company needs to implement this solution quickly, and wants to minimize the infrastructure and data science resources needed to evaluate the messages.
The company already has a solution in place to collect posts and store them within an Amazon S3 bucket.
What services should the data science team use to deliver this solution?

Answer options

• A. Train a model in Amazon SageMaker by using the BlazingText algorithm to detect sentiment in the corpus of social media posts. Expose an endpoint that can be called by AWS Lambda. Trigger a Lambda function when posts are added to the S3 bucket to invoke the endpoint and record the sentiment in an Amazon DynamoDB table and in a custom Amazon CloudWatch metric. Use CloudWatch alarms to notify analysts of trends.
• B. Train a model in Amazon SageMaker by using the semantic segmentation algorithm to model the semantic content in the corpus of social media posts. Expose an endpoint that can be called by AWS Lambda. Trigger a Lambda function when objects are added to the S3 bucket to invoke the endpoint and record the sentiment in an Amazon DynamoDB table. Schedule a second Lambda function to query recently added records and send an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification to notify analysts of trends.
• C. Trigger an AWS Lambda function when social media posts are added to the S3 bucket. Call Amazon Comprehend for each post to capture the sentiment in the message and record the sentiment in an Amazon DynamoDB table. Schedule a second Lambda function to query recently added records and send an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification to notify analysts of trends.
• D. Trigger an AWS Lambda function when social media posts are added to the S3 bucket. Call Amazon Comprehend for each post to capture the sentiment in the message and record the sentiment in a custom Amazon CloudWatch metric and in S3. Use CloudWatch alarms to notify analysts of trends.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because it effectively uses Amazon Comprehend to analyze sentiment and logs this information in a custom CloudWatch metric, allowing for trend monitoring and alerts. Options A and B involve unnecessary complexity by training models that are not needed, while option C does not utilize CloudWatch for monitoring, which is crucial for the requirement of alarms based on trends.
