Topic #: 1
You are designing a Snowpipe pipeline to ingest data from an AWS SQS queue. The queue contains notifications about new files arriving in an S3 bucket. However, due to network issues, some notifications are delayed, causing Snowpipe to potentially miss files. Which of the following strategies, when combined, will BEST address the problem of delayed notifications and ensure data completeness?
Suggested Answer: E Vote an answer
Option E provides the most robust solution. Setting 'MAX FILE AGE to 'DEFAULT' ensures that Snowpipe considers all files, regardless of their age. 'SYSTEM$PIPE FORCE RESUME' can help in some cases. The key component is the supplemental process that actively compares the S3 bucket contents with the loaded data, identifying and loading any missing files due to delayed notifications. This approach guarantees data completeness even with delayed or missed SQS notifications. A,B,C,D doesn't guarantee data completeness. A alone can cause huge latency issue. B is not optimal. C addresses the SQS issue but not guaranteed to catch every case. D requires manual load intervention
