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

IoT and multimedia technologies have made their entrance into the healthcare field thanks to ambient-assisted living and telemedicine. ... Role of Smart Devices Smart devices, mobile Internet, and Cloud services contribute to the continuous and systematic innovation of Healthcare and enable cost-effective, efficient, timely, and high-quality ubiquitous medical services. Skills You  Need  Data Analytics  Cloud Computing  Security  Smart Device "Pervasive healthcare applications generate a vast amount of sensor data that have to be managed properly for further analysis and processing." The adoption of Cloud in this scenario leads to the abstraction of technical details, eliminating the need for expertise in, or control over, the technology infrastructure, and it represents a promising solution for managing healthcare sensor data efficiently. It further makes mobile devices suited for health information delivery, access, and communication, also on the go, enhancing medical
