Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • ✓

    Step 1: Set up source stream; Step 2: Create analytics application; Step 3: Configure application with source and logic; Step 4: Start application; Step 5: Monitor performance

    Why this is correct

    This is the correct order because you must have a source stream ready before creating the application, then configure it with the source and processing logic, start it, and finally monitor performance.

  • ✗

    Step 1: Create analytics application; Step 2: Configure application with source and logic; Step 3: Set up source stream; Step 4: Start application; Step 5: Monitor performance

    Why it's wrong here

    This order is incorrect because you need the source stream to exist before you can configure the application with it. Setting up the source stream after configuring the application would make the configuration invalid.

  • ✗

    Step 1: Set up source stream; Step 2: Create analytics application; Step 3: Start application; Step 4: Configure application with source and logic; Step 5: Monitor performance

    Why it's wrong here

    This order is incorrect because you must configure the application with the source and logic before starting it. Starting an unconfigured application will fail or produce no output.

  • ✗

    Step 1: Set up source stream; Step 2: Create analytics application; Step 3: Configure application with source and logic; Step 4: Monitor performance; Step 5: Start application

    Why it's wrong here

    This order is incorrect because you cannot monitor performance before starting the application. The application must be running to generate metrics and logs.
