Which combination best implements a write-heavy event ingestion pipeline that needs to fan-out the same event to multiple downstream consumers (e.g., a database, an analytics pipeline, and a notification system)?

AAmazon SNS for fan-out → multiple SQS queues (one per consumer) → consumers
BAmazon S3 Glacier Deep Archive as the event bus
CAmazon Route 53 latency-based routing as the event router
DSingle SQS queue read by all three consumers simultaneously
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Amazon SNS for fan-out → multiple SQS queues (one per consumer) → consumers
SNS publishes once → fan-outs to subscribed SQS queues (one per consumer) so each consumer gets its own copy and processes independently. A single SQS queue with many readers competes for messages (one read wins). Glacier and Route 53 aren't event buses.
