AWS Glue

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.

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

Usability
I personally found it very usable for a data engineer's day job, particularly for performing ETL and managing the data pipelines.

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.

Alternatives Considered
The cataloging of data objects is the best in the case of AWS Glue. We use AWS Glue in all of our data pipelines to sync external and internal data sources and to automatically produce SQL-based ETL based on AWS Glue catalog objects. Integration with Amazon products is the other advantage.

Return on Investment
  • 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
