FAQs

What is ETL?

ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

What is S3?

Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) is a cloud-based object storage service that provides developers and IT teams with secure, durable, and scalable storage for their data. It allows users to store and retrieve any amount of data from anywhere on the web, making it easy to build and scale applications, backup and archive data, and analyze data. S3 is designed to provide high availability and durability, with data automatically replicated across multiple availability zones within a region. It also offers a range of features such as versioning, lifecycle policies, and access control to help users manage their data effectively.

What is S3 Glue?

S3 Glue is a server less, salable data integration service that makes it easier to discover, prepare, move, and integrate data from multiple sources for analytics, machine learning, and application development. It provides all the capabilities required for data integration, so you can get insights and put your data to use in minutes instead of months. With S3 Glue, there is no infrastructure to set up or manage. You can pay only for the resources consumed while your jobs are continuing.

What data can you extract from S3?

Amazon S3's API provides access to a wide range of data types, including:

1. Object data: This includes the actual files stored in S3 buckets, such as images, videos, documents, and other types of files.
2. Metadata: S3 stores metadata about each object, including information such as the object's size, creation date, and last modified date.
3. Access control data: S3 provides access control mechanisms to restrict access to objects in a bucket. The API provides access to information about access control policies and permissions.
4. Bucket data: S3 buckets are containers for objects. The API provides access to information about buckets, such as their names, creation dates, and region.
5. Logging data: S3 can log access requests to objects in a bucket. The API provides access to these logs, which can be used for auditing and compliance purposes.
6. Inventory data: S3 can generate inventory reports that provide information about the objects stored in a bucket. The API provides access to these reports.
7. Metrics data: S3 can generate metrics about the usage of a bucket, such as the number of requests and the amount of data transferred. The API provides access to these metrics.

How do I transfer data from S3 to S3 Glue?

This can be done by building a data pipeline manually, usually a Python script (you can leverage a tool as Apache Airflow for this). This process can take more than a full week of development. Or it can be done in minutes on Airbyte in three easy steps: 
1. Set up S3 as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
2. Set up S3 Glue as a destination connector
3. Define which data you want to transfer and how frequently
You can choose to self-host the pipeline using Airbyte Open Source or have it managed for you with Airbyte Cloud. 

What are top ETL tools to extract data from

The most prominent ETL tools to transfer data from S3 to S3 Glue include:
- Airbyte
- Fivetran
- StitchData
- Matillion
- Talend Data Integration
These tools help in extracting data from S3 and various sources (APIs, databases, and more), transforming it efficiently, and loading it into S3 Glue and other databases, data warehouses and data lakes, enhancing data management capabilities.

What is ELT?

ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.

Difference between ETL and ELT?

ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
