An integrated experience for all your data and AI with Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio (preview)

Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio, in preview, is an integrated development environment (IDE) for data, analytics, and AI. Discover your data and put it to work using familiar AWS tools to complete end-to-end development workflows, including data analysis, data processing, model training, generative AI app building, and more, in a single governed environment. This post demonstrates how SageMaker Unified Studio unifies your analytic workloads.

Simplify data access for your enterprise using Amazon SageMaker Lakehouse

Amazon SageMaker Lakehouse offers a unified solution for enterprise data access, combining data from warehouses and lakes. This post demonstrates how SageMaker Lakehouse integrates scattered data sources, enabling secure enterprise-wide access, and allowing teams to use their preferred tools for predicting and analyzing customer churn. The solution involves multiple data sources, including Amazon S3, Amazon Redshift, and AWS Glue Data Catalog, with AWS Lake Formation managing permissions.

Author visual ETL flows on Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio (preview)

Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio (preview) provides an integrated data and AI development environment within Amazon SageMaker. This post shows how you can build a low-code and no-code (LCNC) visual ETL flow that enables seamless data ingestion and transformation across multiple data sources.

Simplify data integration with AWS Glue and zero-ETL to Amazon SageMaker Lakehouse

AWS has introduced zero-ETL integration support from external applications to AWS Glue, simplifying data integration for organizations. This new feature allows for seamless replication of data from popular platforms like Salesforce, ServiceNow, and Zendesk into Amazon SageMaker Lakehouse and Amazon Redshift. This blog post demonstrates a use case involving ServiceNow data integration, outlining the process of setting up a connector, creating a zero-ETL integration, and verifying both initial data load and change data capture (CDC). It also highlights the advantages of using Apache Iceberg for data versioning and time travel capabilities within zero-ETL integrations.

Catalog and govern Amazon Athena federated queries with Amazon SageMaker Lakehouse

In this post, we show how to connect to, govern, and run federated queries on data stored in Redshift, DynamoDB (Preview), and Snowflake (Preview). To query our data, we use Athena, which is seamlessly integrated with SageMaker Unified Studio. We use SageMaker Lakehouse to present data to end-users as federated catalogs, a new type of catalog object. Finally, we demonstrate how to use column-level security permissions in AWS Lake Formation to give analysts access to the data they need while restricting access to sensitive information.

The next generation of Amazon SageMaker: The center for all your data, analytics, and AI

This week on the keynote stages at AWS re:Invent 2024, you heard from Matt Garman, CEO, AWS, and Swami Sivasubramanian, VP of AI and Data, AWS, speak about the next generation of Amazon SageMaker, the center for all of your data, analytics, and AI. This update addresses the evolving relationship between analytics and AI workloads, aiming to streamline how customers work with their data. It helps organizations collaborate more effectively, reduce data silos, and accelerate the development of AI-powered applications while maintaining robust governance and security measures.

Introducing generative AI troubleshooting for Apache Spark in AWS Glue (preview)

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.

Introducing generative AI upgrades for Apache Spark in AWS Glue (preview)

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.

Manage access controls in generative AI-powered search applications using Amazon OpenSearch Service and Amazon Cognito

In this post, we show you how to manage user access to enterprise documents in generative AI-powered tools according to the access you assign to each persona. This post illustrates how to build a document search RAG solution that makes sure only authorized users can access and interact with specific documents based on their roles, departments, and other relevant attributes. It combines OpenSearch Service and Amazon Cognito custom attributes to make a tag-based access control mechanism that makes it straightforward to manage at scale.

Enrich your AWS Glue Data Catalog with generative AI metadata using Amazon Bedrock

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.
