Streamlining AWS Glue Studio visual jobs: Building an integrated CI/CD pipeline for seamless environment synchronization
- AWS Glue enables organizations to make data-driven business decisions by providing seamless integration throughout the development lifecycle, many customers have integrated their data across multiple sources using AWS Glue.
- AWS Glue Studio visual jobs provide a graphical interface called the visual editor that you can use to author extract, transform, and load (ETL) jobs in AWS Glue visually.
- To address the needs of a streamlined development lifecycle and seamless synchronization between environments, an end-to-end solution is presented, combining the power of the AWS Glue Visual Job API, a custom AWS Glue Resource Sync Utility, and an based continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipeline.
- The AWS Glue Resource Sync Utility is a Python application developed on top of the AWS Glue Visual Job API, designed to synchronize AWS Glue Studio visual jobs across different accounts without losing the visual representation.
- The solution uses three separate AWS accounts. One account is designated for the development environment, another for the production environment, and a third to host the CI/CD infrastructure and pipeline.
- The AWS account responsible for hosting the CI/CD pipeline is composed of three key components: Managing AWS Glue Job updates, Cross-Account Access Management, and Version Control Integration.
- You can create AWS Glue Studio visual jobs using the intuitive visual editor in your development account.
- By serializing AWS Glue Studio visual jobs to JSON files and committing them to a Git repository, you enable version control for your data integration workflows.
- By following this approach you can track changes, collaborate with team members, and easily deploy jobs to other accounts or environments.
- This solution empowers data engineers to focus on building robust data integration pipelines while automating the complexities of managing and deploying AWS Glue Studio visual jobs across multiple environments.
