Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors are increasingly important for financial institutions as they look to assess portfolio risk, meet investment mandates, align with customer values, and report on the sustainability of their portfolios. Working closely with CSRHub, a data provider on AWS Data Exchange, learn how AWS has produced a demonstration to illustrate how customers can analyze company-level ESG scoring data with Amazon QuickSight.

Systems are growing more complex, cloud applications are growing in adoption, and cloud data lakes are being increasingly deployed. At the same time, organizations need to implement data cataloging solutions to provide data governance, data analytics, or pure metadata management. Informatica Enterprise Data Catalog (EDC) scans and catalogs an enterprise’s data assets, whether hosted on the cloud or stored on-premises.

Change Data Capture (CDC) is the technique of systematically tracking incremental change in data at the source, and subsequently applying these changes at the target to maintain synchronization. You can implement CDC in diverse scenarios using a variety of tools and technologies. Here, Cognizant uses a hypothetical retailer with a customer loyalty program to demonstrate how CDC can synchronize incremental changes in customer activity with the main body of data already stored about a customer.

Customers want to use Teradata Vantage to analyze the data they have stored in Amazon S3, but the AWS service that prepares and loads data stored in S3 for analytics, AWS Glue, does not natively support Teradata Vantage. To use AWS Glue to prep and load data for analysis by Teradata Vantage, you need to rely on AWS Glue custom database connectors. Follow step-by-step instructions and learn how to set up Vantage and AWS Glue to perform Teradata-level analytics on the data you have stored in Amazon S3.
