This post explores how to build and manage a comprehensive extract, transform, and load (ETL) pipeline using SageMaker Unified Studio workflows through a code-based approach. We demonstrate how to use a single, integrated interface to handle all aspects of data processing, from preparation to orchestration, by using AWS services including Amazon EMR, AWS Glue, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon MWAA. This solution streamlines the data pipeline through a single UI.

Tipico is the number one name in sports betting in Germany. Every day, we connect millions of fans to the thrill of sport, combining technology, passion, and trust to deliver fast, secure, and exciting betting, both online and in more than a thousand retail shops across Germany. We also bring this experience to Austria, where we proudly operate a strong sports betting business. In this post, we show how Tipico built a unified data transformation platform using Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (Amazon MWAA) and AWS Batch.

re:Invent 2025 showcased the bold Amazon Web Services (AWS) vision for the future of analytics, one where data warehouses, data lakes, and AI development converge into a seamless, open, intelligent platform, with Apache Iceberg compatibility at its core. Across over 18 major announcements spanning three weeks, AWS demonstrated how organizations can break down data silos, […]

Organizations often struggle with building scalable and maintainable data lakes—especially when handling complex data transformations, enforcing data quality, and monitoring compliance with established governance. Traditional approaches typically involve custom scripts and disparate tools, which can increase operational overhead and complicate access control. A scalable, integrated approach is needed to simplify these processes, improve data reliability, […]

Today, AWS announced Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA) Serverless. This is a new deployment option for MWAA that eliminates the operational overhead of managing Apache Airflow environments while optimizing costs through serverless scaling. In this post, we demonstrate how to use MWAA Serverless to build and deploy scalable workflow automation solutions.

Apache Airflow 3.x on Amazon MWAA introduces architectural improvements such as API-based task execution that provides enhanced security and isolation. This migration presents an opportunity to embrace next-generation workflow orchestration capabilities while providing business continuity. This post provides best practices and a streamlined approach to successfully navigate this critical migration, providing minimal disruption to your mission-critical data pipelines while maximizing the enhanced capabilities of Airflow 3.

AWS announced the general availability of Apache Airflow 3 on Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (Amazon MWAA). This release transforms how organizations use Apache Airflow to orchestrate data pipelines and business processes in the cloud, bringing enhanced security, improved performance, and modern workflow orchestration capabilities to Amazon MWAA customers. This post explores the features of Airflow 3 on Amazon MWAA and outlines enhancements that improve your workflow orchestration capabilities

Orchestrating machine learning pipelines is complex, especially when data processing, training, and deployment span multiple services and tools. In this post, we walk through a hands-on, end-to-end example of developing, testing, and running a machine learning (ML) pipeline using workflow capabilities in Amazon SageMaker, accessed through the Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio experience. These workflows are powered by Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow.

In this post, we explore a streamlined, configuration-driven approach to orchestrate dbt Core jobs using Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (Amazon MWAA) and Cosmos, an open source package. These jobs run transformations on Amazon Redshift. With this setup, teams can collaborate effectively while maintaining data quality, operational efficiency, and observability.

In this post, we explore best practices for upgrading your Amazon MWAA environment and provide a step-by-step guide to seamlessly transition to the latest version.
