Tips and tricks AWS Solutions Architect Associate #15

AI / ML & Data Processing

• Lex: Build chatbots (natural language).

• Kendra: Enterprise search in unstructured data.

• Translate: Machine translation (text ↔ text). (⚠️ tu as noté “speed to text” → en fait c’est Transcribe qui fait Speech-to-Text).

• Polly: Text-to-Speech (TTS).

---

Security & Customer Data

• Macie: Detects sensitive data (PII) in S3.

• Pinpoint: Customer engagement (email/SMS push); now partly deprecated/replaced by other tools.

---

Monitoring & Ops

• CloudWatch: Logs, metrics, alarms, observability.

• Session Manager (SSM): Connect to EC2 without SSH keys, via AWS console/CLI.

---

Databases

• DocumentDB: Managed MongoDB-compatible database.

• Neptune: Managed graph database (property & RDF).

• Keyspaces: Managed Cassandra-compatible database.

---

Querying Data

• Athena: Serverless SQL queries directly on S3 (schema-on-read).

⚡ In short:

• AI/ML services → Lex (chatbot), Kendra (search), Transcribe/Translate, Polly (voice).

• Data Security → Macie, Pinpoint (legacy customer targeting).

• Databases → DocumentDB (Mongo), Neptune (Graph), Keyspaces (Cassandra).

• Analytics → Athena for SQL on S3.

• Ops & Monitoring → CloudWatch + Session Manager.
