Today, we’re pleased to introduce the Amazon EMR CLI, a new command line tool to package and deploy PySpark projects across different Amazon EMR environments. With the introduction of the EMR CLI, you now have a simple way to not only deploy a wide range of PySpark projects to remote EMR environments, but also integrate […]

Many customers run big data workloads such as extract, transform, and load (ETL) on Apache Hive to create a data warehouse on Hadoop. Apache Hive has performed pretty well for a long time. But with advancements in infrastructure such as cloud computing and multicore machines with large RAM, Apache Spark started to gain visibility by […]

Amazon EMR on EKS provides a deployment option for Amazon EMR that allows organizations to run open-source big data frameworks on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS). With EMR on EKS, Spark applications run on the Amazon EMR runtime for Apache Spark. This performance-optimized runtime offered by Amazon EMR makes your Spark jobs run fast […]

Amazon EMR is a big data service offered by AWS to run Apache Spark and other open-source applications on AWS to build scalable data pipelines in a cost-effective manner. Monitoring the logs generated from the jobs deployed on EMR clusters is essential to help detect critical issues in real time and identify root causes quickly. […]

An event-driven architecture is a software design pattern in which decoupled applications can asynchronously publish and subscribe to events via an event broker. By promoting loose coupling between components of a system, an event-driven architecture leads to greater agility and can enable components in the system to scale independently and fail without impacting other services. […]

Since the deluge of big data over a decade ago, many organizations have learned to build applications to process and analyze petabytes of data. Data lakes have served as a central repository to store structured and unstructured data at any scale and in various formats. However, as data processing at scale solutions grow, organizations need […]

Building data lakes from continuously changing transactional data of databases and keeping data lakes up to date is a complex task and can be an operational challenge. A solution to this problem is to use AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) for migrating historical and real-time transactional data into the data lake. You can then […]

Apache Iceberg is an open table format for very large analytic datasets, which captures metadata information on the state of datasets as they evolve and change over time. It adds tables to compute engines including Spark, Trino, PrestoDB, Flink, and Hive using a high-performance table format that works just like a SQL table. Iceberg has […]
