Optimize Amazon S3 Tables queries with Amazon Redshift
This is the third post in our S3 Tables and Amazon Redshift series. The first post covered getting started with querying Apache Iceberg tables, and the second post walked through enterprise-scale governance and access controls. In this post, you address those performance and usability gaps with three different approaches.
How to use streamlined permissions for Amazon S3 Tables and Iceberg materialized views
In this post, we walk through how to set up and manage S3 Tables in the AWS Glue Data Catalog, create and query Iceberg materialized views, and configure access controls that work across your analytics stack with IAM-based authorization.
Enable real-time mainframe analytics with Precisely Connect and Amazon S3
In this post, we discuss how you can use Precisely Connect to enable real-time, direct replication of mainframe data to Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), and how your organization can extend this foundation using Amazon S3 Tables for advanced analytics.
Getting started with Apache Iceberg write support in Amazon Redshift – Part 2
Amazon Redshift now supports DELETE, UPDATE, and MERGE operations for Apache Iceberg tables stored in Amazon S3 and Amazon S3 table buckets. With these operations, you can modify data at the row level, implement upsert patterns, and manage the data lifecycle while maintaining transactional consistency using familiar SQL syntax. You can run complex transformations in Amazon Redshift and write results to Apache Iceberg tables that other analytics engines like Amazon EMR or Amazon Athena can immediately query. In this post, you work with datasets to demonstrate these capabilities in a data synchronization scenario.
Extract data from Amazon Aurora MySQL to Amazon S3 Tables in Apache Iceberg format
In this post, you learn how to set up an automated, end-to-end solution that extracts tables from Amazon Aurora MySQL Serverless v2 and writes them to Amazon S3 Tables in Apache Iceberg format using AWS Glue.
How Taxbit achieved cost savings and faster processing times using Amazon S3 Tables
In this post, we discuss how Taxbit partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to streamline their crypto tax analytics solution using Amazon S3 Tables, achieving 82% cost savings and five times faster processing times.
Best practices for querying Apache Iceberg data with Amazon Redshift
In this post, we discuss the best practices that you can follow while querying Apache Iceberg data with Amazon Redshift
SAP data ingestion and replication with AWS Glue zero-ETL
AWS Glue zero-ETL with SAP now supports data ingestion and replication from SAP data sources such as Operational Data Provisioning (ODP) managed SAP Business Warehouse (BW) extractors, Advanced Business Application Programming (ABAP), Core Data Services (CDS) views, and other non-ODP data sources. Zero-ETL data replication and schema synchronization writes extracted data to AWS services like Amazon Redshift, Amazon SageMaker lakehouse, and Amazon S3 Tables, alleviating the need for manual pipeline development. In this post, we show how to create and monitor a zero-ETL integration with various ODP and non-ODP SAP sources.
Getting started with Apache Iceberg write support in Amazon Redshift – Part 1
In this post, we show how you can use Amazon Redshift to write data directly to Apache Iceberg tables stored in Amazon S3 and S3 Tables for seamless integration between your data warehouse and data lake while maintaining ACID compliance.
Getting started with Amazon S3 Tables in Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio
In this post, you learn how to integrate SageMaker Unified Studio with S3 Tables and query your data using Amazon Athena, Amazon Redshift, or Apache Spark in EMR and AWS Glue.
