A company is running a custom-built application that processes records. All the components run on Amazon EC2 instances that run in an Auto Scaling group. Each record's processing is a multistep sequential action that is compute-intensive. Each step is always completed in 5 minutes or less.

A limitation of the current system is that if any steps fail, the application has to reprocess the record from the beginning The company wants to update the architecture so that the application must reprocess only the failed steps.
