A data engineer wants to orchestrate a set of extract, transform, and load (ETL) jobs...

The data engineer needs to orchestrate ETL jobs that include Spark jobs on Amazon EMR, API calls to Salesforce, and loading data into Redshift. They also need automatic failure handling and retries. Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (Amazon MWAA) is the best solution for this requirement.

Option A: Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (Amazon MWAA)Apache Airflow is designed for complex job orchestration, allowing users to define workflows (DAGs) in Python. MWAA manages Airflow and its integrations with other AWS services, including Amazon EMR, Redshift, and external APIs like Salesforce. It provides automatic retry handling, failure detection, and detailed monitoring, which fits the use case perfectly.

Option B (AWS Step Functions) can orchestrate tasks but doesn't natively support complex workflow definitions with Python like Airflow does.

Option C (AWS Glue) is more focused on ETL and doesn't handle the orchestration of external systems like Salesforce as well as Airflow.

Option D (Amazon EventBridge) is more suited for event-driven architectures rather than complex workflow orchestration.
