Design Resilient Architectures
An application has one component that receives requests and another that processes them. The company needs to decouple the two components. The application receives about 10,000 requests per day, processing a request can take up to 2 days, and requests that fail processing must be retained. Which solution meets these requirements MOST efficiently?
Write requests to an Amazon DynamoDB table with DynamoDB Streams enabled, and have the processing component read from the stream.
Decouple the components with an Amazon SQS queue, and configure a dead-letter queue to collect requests that fail processing.
Send requests to an Amazon Kinesis data stream, and have the processing component read them with the Kinesis Client Library (KCL).
Publish requests to an Amazon SNS topic, and subscribe the processing component to the topic.
B
Amazon SQS decouples the components and keeps messages for up to 14 days, which covers processing that takes up to 2 days. A dead-letter queue keeps any request that repeatedly fails processing so it can be inspected later. DynamoDB Streams and Kinesis keep records only for a limited time and do not set failed items aside, and SNS pushes messages without storing them for a slow consumer.
