We performed a comparison between AWS Glue and Palantir Foundry based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Glue is a NoSQL-based data ETL tool that has some advantages over IIS and ISAs."
"One of the best features of the solution is its ability to easily integrate with other AWS services."
"I appreciate AWS Glue for its cost-effectiveness."
"Its user interface is quite good. You just need to choose some options to create a job in AWS Glue. The code-generation feature is also useful. If you don't want to customize it and simply want to read a file and store the data in the database, it can generate the code for you."
"The solution is serverless so it allows us to transform data while optimizing the cost and performance of Spark jobs."
"The solution helps organizations gain flexibility in defining the structure of the data."
"The most valuable feature for me is the visual interface of AWS Glue."
"Our entire use case was very easily handled or solved using this solution."
"Palantir Foundry is a robust platform that has really strong plugin connectors and provides features for real-time integration."
"The solution provides an end-to-end integrated tech stack that takes care of all utility/infrastructure topics for you."
"The ease of use is my favorite feature. We're able to build different models and projects or combine different projects to build one use case."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"The data lineage is great."
"It is easy to map out a workflow and run trigger-based scripts without having to deploy to another server."
"The solution offers very good end-to-end capabilities."
"The interface is really user-friendly."
"The technical support for this solution could be improved. In future, we would like to connect more services like Athena or Kinesis to help control more loads of data."
"The product has only a few built-in transformations."
"The solution's visual ETL tool is of no use for actual implementation."
"AWS Glue would be improved by making it easier to switch from single to multi-cloud."
"The solution should offer features for streaming data in addition to batching data."
"The monitoring is not that good."
"There is a learning curve to this tool."
"One area that could be improved is the ETL view. The drag-and-drop interface is not as user-friendly as some other ETL tools."
"The solution's visualization and analysis could be improved."
"Cost of this solution is quite high."
"There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers."
"It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point."
"Compared to other hyperscalers, Palantir Foundry is complex and not so user-intuitive."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"Difficult to receive data from external sources."
"If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly."
