Monitoring the logs generated from the jobs deployed on EMR clusters is essential to help detect critical issues in real time and identify root causes quickly. […]

An event-driven architecture is a software design pattern in which decoupled applications can asynchronously publish and subscribe to events via an event broker. By promoting loose coupling between components of a system, an event-driven architecture leads to greater agility and can enable components in the system to scale independently and fail without impacting other services. […]

Since the deluge of big data over a decade ago, many organizations have learned to build applications to process and analyze petabytes of data. Data lakes have served as a central repository to store structured and unstructured data at any scale and in various formats. However, as data processing at scale solutions grow, organizations need […]

Building data lakes from continuously changing transactional data of databases and keeping data lakes up to date is a complex task and can be an operational challenge. A solution to this problem is to use AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) for migrating historical and real-time transactional data into the data lake. You can then […]
