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

How to Use Python Try and Except Logic Correctly

In Python, you can avoid exceptions using Try and Except logic. The Error-free programs save a lot of time. Also, you can keep away defects in production.   How to Use Python Try and Except Logic Correctly In Python, you can handle un-known errors by using TRY and EXCEPT logic. If the programmer does not take care of this, the default is for  Python to print  an error message and stops execution.  So the responsibility of a programmer is upfront he/she has to find errors and handle them correctly. It is possible if you use the  TRY and EXCEPT. Python Syntax for Try and Except. try:       c = a/b except:       c = 1000000 Try ends with ':' it says that Try block start here. In this block, you can write actual logic. The Except: is another block. That means in this block programmer can specify some value. And that value populates when any error happens. Try and Except Examples. Example: 1. Below is the example to give the expected error in except. try:       c = a/b except Ze
