This post introduces the new HubSpot managed connector for AWS Glue, and demonstrates how you can integrate HubSpot data into your existing data lake on AWS. By consolidating HubSpot data with data from your AWS accounts and from other SaaS services, you can enhance, analyze, and optionally write the data back to HubSpot, creating a seamless and integrated data experience.

AWS Glue OData connector for SAP uses the SAP ODP framework and OData protocol for data extraction. This framework acts in a provider-subscriber model to enable data transfers between SAP systems and non-SAP data targets. This blog post details how you can extract data from SAP and implement incremental data transfer from your SAP source using the SAP ODP OData framework with source delta tokens.

In this post, we explore how Apache XTable, combined with the AWS Glue Data Catalog, enables background conversions between open table formats residing on Amazon S3-based data lakes, with minimal to no changes to existing pipelines, in a scalable and cost-effective way.

This post demonstrates how generative AI troubleshooting for Spark in AWS Glue helps your day-to-day Spark application debugging. It simplifies the debugging process for your Spark applications by using generative AI to automatically identify the root cause of failures and provides actionable recommendations to resolve the issues.

Today, we are excited to announce the preview of generative AI upgrades for Spark, a new capability that enables data practitioners to quickly upgrade and modernize their Spark applications running on AWS. Starting with Spark jobs in AWS Glue, this feature allows you to upgrade from an older AWS Glue version to AWS Glue version 4.0. This new capability reduces the time data engineers spend on modernizing their Spark applications, allowing them to focus on building new data pipelines and getting valuable analytics faster.

The AWS Glue Data Catalog supports automatic table optimization of Apache Iceberg tables, including compaction, snapshots, and orphan data management. The data compaction optimizer constantly monitors table partitions and kicks off the compaction process when the threshold is exceeded for the number of files and file sizes. This post demonstrates how it works with step-by-step instructions.

By harnessing the capabilities of generative AI, you can automate the generation of comprehensive metadata descriptions for your data assets based on their documentation, enhancing discoverability, understanding, and the overall data governance within your AWS Cloud environment. This post shows you how to enrich your AWS Glue Data Catalog with dynamic metadata using foundation models (FMs) on Amazon Bedrock and your data documentation.

These organizations use third-party satellite-powered terminal devices for remote monitoring using telemetry and NMEA-0183 formatted messages generated in near real time. This post demonstrates how to implement a satellite-based remote alerting and response solution on the AWS Cloud to provide time-critical alerts and actionable insights, with a focus on telemetry message ingestion and alerts. Key services in the solution include Amazon API Gateway, Amazon Data Firehose, and Amazon Location Service.

Delta Lake UniForm is an open table format extension designed to provide a universal data representation that can be efficiently read by different processing engines. It aims to bridge the gap between various data formats and processing systems, offering a standardized approach to data storage and retrieval. With UniForm, you can read Delta Lake tables as Apache Iceberg tables. This post explores how to start using Delta Lake UniForm on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

This second post of a two-part series that details how Volkswagen Autoeuropa, a Volkswagen Group plant, together with AWS, built a data solution with a robust governance framework using Amazon DataZone to become a data-driven factory. Part 1 of this series focused on the customer challenges, overall solution architecture and solution features, and how they helped Volkswagen Autoeuropa overcome their challenges. This post dives into the technical details, highlighting the robust data governance framework that enables ease of access to quality data using Amazon DataZone.
