AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional — Question 877

You have been given the task to define multiple AWS Data Pipeline schedules for different activities in the same pipeline.
Which of the following would successfully accomplish this task?

Answer options

• A. Creating multiple pipeline definition files
• B. Defining multiple pipeline definitions in your schedule objects file and associating the desired schedule to the correct activity via its schedule field
• C. Defining multiple schedule objects in your pipeline definition file and associating the desired schedule to the correct activity via its schedule field
• D. Defining multiple schedule objects in the schedule field

Correct answer: C

Explanation

To configure different schedules for different activities in a single AWS Data Pipeline, you must define multiple schedule objects within the pipeline definition file itself. Each activity can then reference its specific schedule using its 'schedule' field. Creating multiple definition files or attempting to define schedule objects in incorrect locations will not achieve this within a single pipeline.
