At AWS re:Invent 2024, we introduced a no code zero-ETL integration between Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon SageMaker Lakehouse, simplifying how organizations handle data analytics and AI workflows. In this post, we share how to set up this zero-ETL integration from DynamoDB to your SageMaker Lakehouse environment.

In this post, we guide you through the process of creating a Data Catalog view using EMR Serverless, adding the SQL dialect to the view for Athena, sharing it with another account using LF-Tags, and then querying the view in the recipient account using a separate EMR Serverless workspace and AWS Glue 5.0 Spark job and Athena. This demonstration showcases the versatility and cross-account capabilities of Data Catalog views and access through various AWS analytics services.

This post provides guidance on how you can use event driven architecture to enhance the resiliency of data solutions built on the next generation of Amazon SageMaker, a unified platform for data, analytics, and AI. SageMaker is a managed service with high availability and durability.

We’re thrilled to introduce managed query results, a new Athena feature that automatically stores, secures, and manages the lifecycle of query result data for you at no additional cost. In this post, we demonstrate how to get started with managed query results and, by removing the undifferentiated effort spent on query result management, how Athena helps you get insights from your data in fewer steps than before.

This post demonstrates how to centralize Apache Spark observability using SHS on EMR on EKS. We showcase how to enhance SHS with performance monitoring tools, with a pattern applicable to many monitoring solutions such as SparkMeasure and DataFlint.

In this post, we will show you five Amazon Redshift architecture patterns that you can consider to optimize your Amazon Redshift data warehouse performance at scale using features such as Amazon Redshift Serverless, Amazon Redshift data sharing, Amazon Redshift Spectrum, zero-ETL integrations, and Amazon Redshift streaming ingestion.

In this post, we explore best practices for upgrading your Amazon MWAA environment and provide a step-by-step guide to seamlessly transition to the latest version.

The post demonstrates a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for processing data from MSK Serverless using an EMR Serverless Spark Streaming job, secured with IAM authentication. Additionally, it demonstrates how to query the processed data using Amazon Athena, providing a seamless and integrated workflow for data processing and analysis. This solution enables near real-time querying of the latest data processed from MSK Serverless and EMR Serverless using Athena, providing instant insights and analytics.

In this post, we dive deep into the new Amazon EMR WAL feature to help you understand how it works, how it enhances durability, and why it’s needed. We explore several scenarios that are well-suited for this feature.

In this blog post we shall cover how understanding real-time payout performance, identifying customer behavior patterns across regions, and optimizing internal operations required more than traditional business intelligence and analytics tools. And how since implementing Amazon Redshift and Zero-ETL, MassPay has seen 90% reduction in data availability latency, payments data available for analytics 1.5x faster, leading to 45% reduction in time-to-insight and 37% fewer support tickets related to transaction visibility and payment inquiries.
