N/A
AWS Glue is a managed extract, transform, and load (ETL) service designed to make it easy for customers to prepare and load data for analytics. With it, users can create and run an ETL job in the AWS Management Console. Users point AWS Glue to data stored on AWS, and AWS Glue discovers data and stores the associated metadata (e.g. table definition and schema) in the AWS Glue Data Catalog. Once cataloged, data is immediately searchable, queryable, and available for ETL.

Chose AWS Glue
The main reason we choose AWS Glue over Talend open studio 1) Does not support Spark 2) Run only on java 3) not really feasible solution for heavy workloads 4) most of the cases need customer support 5) no proper documentation is available

Chose AWS Glue
AWS Glue is a managed service. It was easier for us to integrate it into our stack since we are already an AWS shop. It saved us the headache of managing a 3rd part service.

Chose AWS Glue
Glue comes in form of a managed service. However, the AWS data pipeline puts additional responsibility to manage the infrastructure. We were not requiring fine-grained control of the hardware which the AWS data pipeline provides. We also want to park our data on DynamoDB. AWS …

Chose AWS Glue
We are already in AWS services, so AWS glue is the first choice for us. But for the comparison of ETL job making and process time, it's way faster for other services.

Chose AWS Glue
Glue is easier especially if you are already in AWS. It easily integrates to other AWS services. Compliments well with Amazon Athena, S3, and Lake Formation. Compared to Snowflake, it is also much much cheaper and you don't have to build outside AWS. Support is also good if you …

When the data which requires ETL has different formats, schema, and volume, this service suits them best. So, when the volume is not consistent (typical use-case of healthcare and online shopping), AWS Glue can be the prime choice. When the data is available in both batch and streaming mode, the developer needs to generate a separate codebase. This increases the source code management efforts. So, prefer to go with Glue when the nature of the data is the same (either batched or streamed).

Pros
  • After data cleansing, the team also implemented the best practices for using AWS platform services as a Data Lake, such as job bookmarking for AWS Glue jobs, proper delimiter for the AWS Glue crawlers, partitioning in AWS S3, and transformation to parquet file for compression and faster querying time in Amazon Athena.
  • Data modernization through combining data from multiple sources into a functioning datasets, rebuilding DW, and resctructuring data sources.
  • Aims to lessen customer complaints, eliminate manual data extraction requests via SR from different data sources, and Increase accuracy, consistency and speed up reconciliation process.

Cons
  • It’s integration with other cloud vendors is bit difficult
  • If it can support non SQL based databases as well, it would be powerful.
  • Real time data synchronisation in data source is missing

Amazon responds in good time once the ticket has been generated but needs to generate tickets frequent because very few sample codes are available, and it's not cover all the scenarios.

  • Positive Impact :- after ETL we can able to do some kind of automation
  • Negative :- At some point of time it can hamper the cost but not really
