Build a CI/CD Pipeline Using AWS Glue, AWS CDK and GitHub
- AWS Glue has evolved into a powerful tool for building scalable ETL solutions, but managing Glue jobs manually can be a pain point.
- Using AWS CDK in combination with GitHub and CI/CD workflows has made deploying Glue jobs faster, more reliable, and far less error-prone.
- To ensure consistency and collaboration across the team, a structured development workflow is followed integrating tools like Jira for task tracking and integrated with GitHub to map tickets to git branches.
- Each component folder contains sub-folders for configuration files and Python-based Glue scripts. AWS CDK stacks are used to define Glue jobs for each component.
- Separation of default and custom configurations gives flexibility to manage AWS Glue jobs efficiently.
- Using a CI/CD-driven workflow for deploying AWS Glue jobs has significantly improved deployment process and reduces the chances of errors.
- Every change is traceable, reviewable and deployed consistently across the environments.
- The workflow works well for the author, but the workflows evolve with the project goals and requirements.
- All views and opinions expressed in the blog are personal to the author and not necessarily those of the employer.
