Some AWS Data Services: Athena, Redshift, and More

September 10, 2024

  1. AWS Athena and AWS Redshift, the first look similar but actually they are different.
  • Athena is a serverless data query engine, like a SQL, but it's not a database.
  • Redshift is a data warehouse, it's a database. It's powerful and expensive.
  1. AWS DataSync, AWS DataExchange, AWS Glue
  • DataSync: I don't remember.
  • DataExchange is a marketplace for data. We can buy data from the marketplace like Covid-19 data.
  • AWS Glue is a serverless data integration service. It help build ETL pipleline.
