Question

A company plans to provision a log delivery stream within a VPC. The company configured the VPC flow logs to publish to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. The company needs to send the flow logs to Splunk in near real time for further analysis. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The correct answer is B. Option B: Create an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream to use Splunk as the destination. Create a CloudWatch Logs subscription filter to send log events to the delivery stream. Kinesis Data Firehose delivers streaming data to destinations like S3/Redshift with no servers to manage. Amazon Kinesis ingests and processes real-time streaming data at scale. Amazon CloudWatch collects metrics, logs and alarms to monitor and react to operational health.
