Multi-Region identity-based access to Amazon Redshift and S3 Tables

In Part 1 of this series, we showed how to simplify enterprise data access using the Amazon Redshift integration with Amazon S3 Access Grants. In this post, we extend that solution across AWS Regions. We introduce a fictional company, AnyCompany Global, to illustrate how organizations with global operations can use AWS IAM Identity Center Multi-Region to set up consistent, identity-based access to Amazon Redshift and Amazon S3 Tables across Regions.

Why tombola chose Graviton-powered RG instances for Amazon Redshift

In this post, you learn how tombola followed a strict engineering principle: no changes to production without evidence. That meant a head-to-head comparison of RA3 versus RG on their actual workload. You also see benchmark results on Amazon S3 Tables and the migration from RA3 to RG instances.

Real-time CDC from Aurora PostgreSQL to Amazon S3 Tables using Debezium and Firehose

In this post, we show you how to build a CDC pipeline that delivers query-ready Iceberg tables directly. The pipeline captures inserts, updates, and deletes from Aurora PostgreSQL and applies them as row-level operations in Amazon S3 Tables, a capability of Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3).

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.
