What our users say


"For TUI Musement, Airbyte cut development time in half and enabled dynamic customer experiences."


“Airbyte helped us accelerate our progress by years, compared to our competitors. We don’t need to worry about connectors and focus on creating value for our users instead of building infrastructure. That’s priceless. The time and energy saved allows us to disrupt and grow faster.”

"With Airbyte, we could just push a few buttons, allow API access, and bring all the data into Google BigQuery. By blending all the different marketing data sources, we can gain valuable insights."
Begin by setting up an AWS account if you don't have one. Create an IAM user with necessary permissions to access S3, AWS Glue, and AWS Lake Formation. Create a new IAM role that allows your services to interact with AWS resources securely. Assign S3FullAccess, GlueServiceRole, and LakeFormationDataAdmin policies to the IAM role.
Ensure your CSV file is properly formatted, with a consistent delimiter (commonly a comma) and that it includes headers if needed. Clean and validate your data to ensure there are no missing or incorrect entries that could cause issues during upload or processing.
Log into your AWS Management Console and navigate to the S3 service. Create a new S3 bucket where you will store your CSV file. Choose a unique name and select the appropriate region that best suits your data residency and latency needs. Configure bucket properties such as versioning, encryption, and access control according to your security requirements.
Use the AWS Management Console or AWS CLI to upload your CSV file to the newly created S3 bucket. If using the AWS CLI, the command would look like `aws s3 cp /path/to/yourfile.csv s3://your-bucket-name/`. Ensure your file is placed in a meaningful directory structure if you plan to manage multiple datasets.
Navigate to AWS Glue in the AWS Management Console. Create a new Glue Crawler that will catalog your CSV file. Define the data source as your S3 bucket and configure the crawler to detect the schema of your CSV file. Run the crawler to update the AWS Glue Data Catalog with the structure of your CSV data.
Access AWS Lake Formation to set up your Data Lake. Register your S3 bucket as the data location within Lake Formation. Grant permissions to your IAM role to access the registered location. This step ensures that Lake Formation can manage access control and data governance for your data.
Use Amazon Athena to query the data now cataloged in AWS Glue and managed by AWS Lake Formation. Open the Athena console, choose the database created by the Glue Crawler, and write SQL queries to interact with your data. Athena will leverage the catalog and permissions set up in previous steps for fast and secure querying.
By following these steps, you can move data from a CSV file to an AWS Data Lake, enabling efficient data storage, management, and analysis within AWS’s ecosystem.
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.
A CSV (Comma Separated Values) file is a type of plain text file that stores tabular data in a structured format. Each line in the file represents a row of data, and each value within a row is separated by a comma. CSV files are commonly used for exchanging data between different software applications, such as spreadsheets and databases. They are also used for importing and exporting data from web applications and for data analysis. CSV files can be easily opened and edited in any text editor or spreadsheet software, making them a popular choice for data storage and transfer.
CSV File gives access to various types of data in a structured format that can be easily integrated into various applications and systems.
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.
