Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), MuleSoft, Matillion and others in Cloud Data Integration."The key role for Glue is that it hosts our metadata before rolling out our actual data. This is the major advantage of using this solution and our clients client have been very satisfied with it."
"I like the fact that AWS Glue works with Python scripts."
"AWS Glue is a stable and easy-to-use solution."
"It is AWS-integrated. There is end-to-end integration with the other AWS services. It is also user-friendly."
"The solution's technical support is good. Whenever we raise a use case where we face an issue in our company, we get a response from the solution's technical team."
"It's fairly straightforward as a product; it's not very complicated."
"AWS Glue is a good solution for developers, they have the ability to write code in different languages and other software."
"The product has a valuable feature for data catalog."
"Connects to many APIs in the market and new ones are being added all the time."
"The setup and installation is a bit complex without advanced knowledge or training."
"If there's a cluster-related configuration, we have to make worker notes, which is quite a headache when processing a large amount of data."
"There is a learning curve to this tool."
"I haven't looked into Glue in terms of seeking out flaws. I've not come across missing features."
"The start-up time is really high right now. For instance, when you start up a new job, you have to wait for five or eight minutes before it starts. If the start-up time is reduced to one or two minutes, it will be great. It will be better to have a direct linkage to Redshift in AWS. If we can use data catalogs from Redshift, it will be so easy to create some data catalogs. Currently, we can only use data catalogs from S3."
"It fails to handle massive databases acquired from various sources."
"The crucial problem with AWS Glue is that it only works with AWS. It is not an agnostic tool like Pentaho. In PowerCenter, we can install the forms from Google and other vendors, but in the case of AWS Glue, we can only use AWS."
"The mapping area and the use of the data catalog from Glue could be better."
"Lineage and an impact analysis or logic dependency are lacking."
