Develop and monitor a Spark application using existing data in Amazon S3 with Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio

In this post, we demonstrate how to develop and monitor a Spark application using existing data in Amazon S3 using SageMaker Unified Studio. The solution addresses key challenges organizations face in managing big data analytics workloads through an integrated development environment where data teams can develop, test, and refine Spark applications while leveraging EMR Serverless for dynamic resource allocation and built-in monitoring tools.

Perform per-project cost allocation in Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio

Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio enables per-project cost allocation through resource tagging, allowing organizations to track and manage costs across different projects and domains effectively. This post demonstrates how to implement cost tracking using AWS Billing and Cost Management tools, including Cost Explorer and Data Exports, to help finance and business analysts follow FinOps best practices for controlling cloud infrastructure costs.

Reduce time to access your transactional data for analytical processing using the power of Amazon SageMaker Lakehouse and zero-ETL

In this post, we demonstrate how you can bring transactional data from AWS OLTP data stores like Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) and Amazon Aurora flowing into Redshift using zero-ETL integrations to SageMaker Lakehouse Federated Catalog (Bring your own Amazon Redshift into SageMaker Lakehouse). With this integration, you can now seamlessly onboard the changed data from OLTP systems to a unified lakehouse and expose the same to analytical applications for consumptions using Apache Iceberg APIs from new SageMaker Unified Studio.
