Protect Your SaaS Data and Leverage it to Gain Insights Using Own and AWS
The 3-2-1 backup strategy ensures data protection by maintaining multiple copies across different storage media, with at least one copy offsite. As companies adopt SaaS applications, they need strategies to backup critical SaaS data. Own Company (formerly OwnBackup) enables SaaS data backups to Amazon S3, providing data autonomy, meeting recovery objectives, and allowing data analysis.
Unify Analytics Leveraging Amazon Athena and Teradata for Robust Query Federation
The Amazon Athena Teradata Connector enables Athena to query data in Teradata Vantage using SQL, and comprises two AWS Lambda functions for metadata and record reading. This post describes deploying the connector, creating a Lambda layer for the Teradata JDBC driver, and running queries on Teradata from Athena, including a federated query joining Teradata and S3 data. This provides a scalable, serverless way to analyze data across different data stores without data duplication.
How to Analyze Fastly Content Delivery Network Logs with Amazon QuickSight Powered by Generative BI
A content delivery network (CDN) caches content closer to users and reduces load times. Monitoring CDN performance is crucial for optimizing user experience, and this post demonstrates building an Amazon QuickSight dashboard with generative AI capabilities to gain insights from Fastly CDN logs in Amazon S3. It covers configuring real-time log streaming, using AWS Glue to catalog data, accelerating dashboard creation using natural language, and creating rich data stories for stakeholders.
The Composable CDP: Activating Data from Amazon Redshift to 200+ Tools Using Hightouch
Customer data is critical for modern digital organizations, but is often scattered across tools which can render it useless. Historically, customer data platforms (CDPs) aimed to consolidate data for insights and activation, but organizations now prefer a composable CDP architecture on AWS to sync data from Amazon Redshift and Amazon S3 into downstream tools. Hightouch facilitates this composable CDP approach, making it easy to activate AWS data across channels without engineering work.
How Leidos Standardized its Application Logging into Amazon Security Lake with LOIS
As systems generate increasing data, making sense of it is critical. Application logs are unique and not standardized. Leidos addresses logging issues using the Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework (OCSF) and Amazon Security Lake via the Leidos OCSF Integration Suite (LOIS), which bridges applications to generate OCSF-compliant messages and ingest them into Amazon Security Lake for analysis and visualization.
How to Accelerate Interface Development with Skuid’s No-Code Studio on AWS
