This blog post discusses how to create a seamless integration between Amazon SageMaker Lakehouse and Snowflake for modern data analytics. It specifically demonstrates how organizations can enable Snowflake to access tables in AWS Glue Data Catalog (stored in S3 buckets) through SageMaker Lakehouse Iceberg REST Catalog, with security managed by AWS Lake Formation. The post provides a detailed technical walkthrough of implementing this integration, including creating IAM roles and policies, configuring Lake Formation access controls, setting up catalog integration in Snowflake, and managing data access permissions. While four different patterns exist for accessing Iceberg tables from Snowflake, the blog focuses on the first pattern using catalog integration with SigV4 authentication and Lake Formation credential vending.

This post provides a detailed walkthrough of two new encryption options to help you secure your EMR cluster that handles sensitive data. The first option is native EBS encryption to encrypt volumes attached to EMR clusters. The second option is an Amazon S3 encryption that allows you to use different encryption modes and customer master keys (CMKs) for individual S3 buckets with Amazon EMR.
