AWS customers often process petabytes of data using Amazon EMR on EKS. In enterprise environments with diverse workloads or varying operational requirements, customers frequently choose a multi-cluster setup due to the following advantages: Better resiliency and no single point of failure – If one cluster fails, other clusters can continue processing critical workloads, maintaining business […]

In this blog post, we will highlight how ZS Associates used multiple AWS services to build a highly scalable, highly performant, clinical document search platform. This platform is an advanced information retrieval system engineered to assist healthcare professionals and researchers in navigating vast repositories of medical documents, medical literature, research articles, clinical guidelines, protocol documents, […]

AWS recently announced that Apache Flink is generally available for Amazon EMR on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). Apache Flink is a scalable, reliable, and efficient data processing framework that handles real-time streaming and batch workloads (but is most commonly used for real-time streaming). Amazon EMR on EKS is a deployment option for Amazon EMR […]

This blog post shows how to improve security in a data pipeline architecture based on Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (Amazon MWAA) and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) by setting up fine-grained permissions, using HashiCorp Terraform for infrastructure as code.

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 […]

This is a guest blog post co-written with SangSu Park and JaeHong Ahn from SOCAR.  As companies continue to expand their digital footprint, the importance of real-time data processing and analysis cannot be overstated. The ability to quickly measure and draw insights from data is critical in today’s business landscape, where rapid decision-making is key. […]

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. […]

Amazon EMR on EKS is a deployment option in Amazon EMR that allows you to run Spark jobs on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS). Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Spot Instances save you up to 90% over On-Demand Instances, and is a great way to cost optimize the Spark workloads running on Amazon […]

AWS Controllers for Kubernetes (ACK) was announced in August, 2020, and now supports 14 AWS service controllers as generally available with an additional 12 in preview. The vision behind this initiative was simple: allow Kubernetes users to use the Kubernetes API to manage the lifecycle of AWS resources such as Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon […]

Amazon EMR on Amazon EKS enables you to submit Apache Spark jobs on demand on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) without provisioning clusters. With EMR on EKS, you can consolidate analytical workloads with your other Kubernetes-based applications on the same Amazon EKS cluster to improve resource utilization and simplify infrastructure management. Kubernetes uses namespaces to provide isolation between […]
