A data engineer needs to build an enterprise data catalog based on the company's Amazon...

To build an enterprise data catalog with metadata for storage formats, the easiest and most efficient solution is using an AWS Glue crawler. The Glue crawler can scan Amazon S3 buckets and Amazon RDS databases to automatically create a data catalog that includes metadata such as the schema and storage format (e.g., CSV, Parquet, etc.). By using AWS Glue crawler classifiers, you can configure the crawler to recognize the format of the data and store this information directly in the catalog.

Option B: Use an AWS Glue crawler to build a data catalog. Use AWS Glue crawler classifiers to recognize the format of data and store the format in the catalog.This option meets the requirements with the least effort because Glue crawlers automate the discovery and cataloging of data from multiple sources, including S3 and RDS, while recognizing various file formats via classifiers.

Other options (A, C, D) involve additional manual steps, like having data stewards inspect the data, or using services like Amazon Macie that focus more on sensitive data detection rather than format cataloging.
