You have a Kinesis data stream with 6 shards provisioned. This data stream usually receiving 5 MB/s of data and sending out 8 MB/s. Occasionally, your traffic spikes up to 2x and you get a ProvisionedThroughputExceeded exception. What should you do to resolve the issue?

• Add more Shards

• Enable Kinesis Replication

• Use SQS as a buffer to Kinesis

You have a website where you want to analyze clickstream data such as the sequence of clicks a user makes, the amount of time a user spends, and where the navigation begins and how it ends. You decided to use Amazon Kinesis, so you have configured the website to send these clickstream data all the way to a Kinesis data stream. While you checking the data sent to your Kinesis data stream, you found that the users' data is not ordered and the data for one individual user is spread across many shards. How would you fix this problem?

• There are too many shards, you should only use 1 shard

• You shouldn't use multiple consumers, olny one and it should be re-order data

• For each record sent to Kinesis add a partition key that represents the identity of the user

Which AWS service is most appropriate when you want to perform real-time analytics on streams of data?

You are running an application that produces a large amount of real-time data that you want to load into S3 and Redshift. Also, these data need to be transformed before being delivered to their destination. What is the best architecture would you choose?

A telecom company operates thousands of hardware devices like switches, routers, cables, etc. The real-time status data for these devices must be fed into a communications application for notifications. Simultaneously, another analytics application needs to read the same real-time status data and analyze all the connecting lines that may go down because of any device failures.

As a Solutions Architect, which of the following solutions would you suggest, so that both the applications can consume the real-time status data concurrently?

• Amazon Kinesis Data Streams

• Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS)

• Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) with Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS)

• Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) with Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES)
