A large company has a central data lake to run analytics across different departments. Each department uses a separate AWS account and stores its data in an
Amazon S3 bucket in that account. Each AWS account uses the AWS Glue Data Catalog as its data catalog. There are different data lake access requirements based on roles. Associate analysts should only have read access to their departmental data. Senior data analysts can have access in multiple departments including theirs, but for a subset of columns only.
Which solution achieves these required access patterns to minimize costs and administrative tasks?

A. Consolidate all AWS accounts into one account. Create different S3 buckets for each department and move all the data from every account to the central data lake account. Migrate the individual data catalogs into a central data catalog and apply fine-grained permissions to give to each user the required access to tables and databases in AWS Glue and Amazon S3.

B. Keep the account structure and the individual AWS Glue catalogs on each account. Add a central data lake account and use AWS Glue to catalog data from various accounts. Configure cross-account access for AWS Glue crawlers to scan the data in each departmental S3 bucket to identify the schema and populate the catalog. Add the senior data analysts into the central account and apply highly detailed access controls in the Data Catalog and Amazon S3.

C. Set up an individual AWS account for the central data lake. Use AWS Lake Formation to catalog the cross-account locations. On each individual S3 bucket, modify the bucket policy to grant S3 permissions to the Lake Formation service-linked role. Use Lake Formation permissions to add fine-grained access controls to allow senior analysts to view specific tables and columns.

D. Set up an individual AWS account for the central data lake and configure a central S3 bucket. Use an AWS Lake Formation blueprint to move the data from the various buckets into the central S3 bucket. On each individual bucket, modify the bucket policy to grant S3 permissions to the Lake Formation service-linked role. Use Lake Formation permissions to add fine-grained access controls for both associate and senior analysts to view specific tables and columns.
