It is seamlessly integrated within the AWS ecosystem, making it straightforward to manage access patterns for AWS-native services.

The security of the solution is pretty good.

The solution has many features that are applicable to events such as audits.

The solution offers a lot of documentation online that users can use to help with troubleshooting or learning the systems. We rely on these materials when we need support.

We use AWS Lake Formation typically for the data warehouse.

Customers choose to go with AWS Lake Formation because it's a cloud-based solution, and customers don't want to invest in on-premises hardware and software.

The solution is quite good at handling analytics. It's done a good job at helping us centralize them.

I would suggest using the entire ecosystem of AWS for this kind of job. The most important advantage of using AWS Lake Formation is its ability to connect the data lake to the other technologies in AWS. This is what I advise my clients.

Usually, you define an architecture in which you build up a data platform. The different technologies are different layers of that platform. My advice is to use the AWS technologies altogether. This can give a greater boost to the developer of the data platform.
