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

Beginner's Tutorial on SaS Visual Analytics

SAS visual analytics is a completely new architecture from SAS. It has the capability to manage large amounts of data and bring it into memory to analyze it, explore it and publish reports.  Although the data amounts are massive — up to 1.1 billion rows of data, the SAS LASR Analytic Server, to use its full name, was designed to be intuitive to users without an advanced degree in computer science. A report from Simply hired. All about SAS analytics Server - The SAS Analytic Server begins with an eight-blade server with 96 processor cores, 768 gigabytes memory and 4.8 terabytes (TB) of disk storage.  The upper end of the reference configurations is 96 blades with 1,152 cores, 9.2 TB memory and 57.6 TB of disk storage, enough disk space to store the entire Library of Congress six times.

You may already know that SAS is king in visual analytics. The real features that SAS provide you can learn here. I have collected some features on SAS analytics.  SAS Visual Analytics is an easy to use, web-based product that leverages SAS high performance analytic technologies and empowers organizations to explore huge volumes of data very quickly in order to see patterns and trends, and to identify opportunities for further analysis.  "SAS Visual Data Builder enables users to summarize data, join data, and enhance the predictive power of their data. Users can prepare data for exploration and mining quickly and easily." The highly visual, drag and drop data interface of SAS Visual Analytics Explorer combined with the speed of the SAS LASR Analytic Server accelerates analytic computations and enables organizations to derive value from massive amounts of data.  This creates an unprecedented ability to solve difficult problems, improve business performance, and m
