8 Ways to Optimize AWS Glue Jobs in a Nutshell

Image
  Improving the performance of AWS Glue jobs involves several strategies that target different aspects of the ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) process. Here are some key practices. 1. Optimize Job Scripts Partitioning : Ensure your data is properly partitioned. Partitioning divides your data into manageable chunks, allowing parallel processing and reducing the amount of data scanned. Filtering : Apply pushdown predicates to filter data early in the ETL process, reducing the amount of data processed downstream. Compression : Use compressed file formats (e.g., Parquet, ORC) for your data sources and sinks. These formats not only reduce storage costs but also improve I/O performance. Optimize Transformations : Minimize the number of transformations and actions in your script. Combine transformations where possible and use DataFrame APIs which are optimized for performance. 2. Use Appropriate Data Formats Parquet and ORC : These columnar formats are efficient for storage and querying, signif

Present case study is in Health Care:   Practo Technologies was formed in year 2008. The vision of the company was to make medical information digitally accessible to patients and doctors. With all these features at pleasing price, solutions providers like Practo aimed to create the most efficient healthcare experience for people in India and gradually around the world. The aim was to improve the patient experience for finding and meeting a doctor.   Traditionally the healthcare records were created manually and stored on shelves. Managing of records stored in files traditionally was of not much use. With the evolution of technology, there has been a paradigm shift in the manner the healthcare industry functions.   The medical records are electronically stored and managed. With the acceptance of cloud computing the healthcare patient data is stored at a remote server location on the internet.   The following companies offering CLOUD based health care
