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

Python Default Argument is Self Why do We Need it

Python self as default argument, here is the reason. Below, you will find an example and the importance of self-argument. Structure of a class The default argument is self. The self-argument states the function belongs to the class that we refer to here. Access to class members' details of one member to another is possible through self-argument. So self-argument is mandatory. class <name of the class>: def <function name>(<arguments>): ... <members> Self Argument A python class consists of methods these also called functions. The default self-argument you need to supply in all the class methods . Python class with self argument class employee:      def getdata(self):           self.name=input('Enter name\t:')           self.age=input('Enter age\t:')     def putdata(self):           print('Name\t:',self.name)          print('Age\t:',self.age)  e1=employee()  e1.getdata()  e1.putdata() Output from python class Here,  I have I
