This post shows how to implement Vega visualizations included in Kibana, which is part of Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES), using a real-world clickstream data sample. Vega visualizations are an integrated scripting mechanism of Kibana to perform on-the-fly computations on raw data to generate D3.js visualizations. For this post, we use a fully automated setup using AWS CloudFormation to show how to build a customized histogram for a web analytics use case. This example implements an ad hoc map-reduce like aggregation of the underlying data for a histogram.

We parse through millions of scooter and user events generated daily (over 300 events per second) to extract actionable insight. We selected AWS Glue to perform this task. Our primary ETL job reads the newly added raw event data from Amazon S3, processes it using Apache Spark, and writes the results to our Amazon Redshift data warehouse. AWS Glue plays a critical role in our ability to scale on demand. After careful evaluation and testing, we concluded that AWS Glue ETL jobs meet all our needs and free us from procuring and managing infrastructure.
