We will review popular approaches for format conversion using EMR Hive, Spark, Glue ETL.

In-Place Analytics and Portfolio of Tools Preview 05:02

One of the exciting capabilities of S3 based data lake architecture is in-place querying.

You can directly run SQL queries on your data stored in S3 without having to load in a database or data warehouse.

We will review Athena and Redshift Spectrum for in-place querying.

For streaming data, we will Kinesis Data Analytics

Your data lake needs to be flexible to support a wide variety of current and future tools.

Here is the thing, S3 is one of the most popular products in the cloud, and a lot of tools natively support S3.
