Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), MuleSoft, Matillion and others in Cloud Data Integration."I like that it's flexible, powerful, and allows you to write your own queries and scripts to get the needed transformations."
"The solution is highly user-friendly, and its features are easy to use. The new addition of AWS Glue Data Catalog is also very beneficial, making the tool even more helpful for its users."
"It is a stable and scalable solution."
"Our entire use case was very easily handled or solved using this solution."
"Data catalog and triggers are the two best features for me. AWS Glue has its own data catalog, which makes it great and really easy to use. Triggers are also really good for scheduling the ETL process."
"The facility to integrate with S3 and the possibility to use Jupyter Notebook inside the pipeline are the most valuable features."
"The most valuable feature for me is the visual interface of AWS Glue."
"The solution integrates well with other AWS products or services."
"Server features for scheduler: It is very easy to schedule jobs and monitor them. The interface is easy to use."
"No dependence on native language and ease of use."
"Connectivity to various data sources: The ability to extract data from different data sources gives greater flexibility."
"Key features include wealth of pre-defined components; all components are customizable; descriptive logging, especially for error messages."
"Cost-wise, AWS Glue is expensive, so that's an area for improvement. The process for setting up the solution was also complex, which is another area for improvement."
"The mapping area and the use of the data catalog from Glue could be better."
"I have encountered challenges with multi-region support."
"I would like to see a more robust interface on the no-code side. This would be nice to be able to split cells."
"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 product has only a few built-in transformations."
"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."
"On occasion, the solution's dashboard reports that a project failed due to runtime but it actually succeeded."
"Resource management: We typically run out of heap space, and even the allocation of high heap space does not seem to be enough."
"Needs: easier automated failure recovery; more, and more intuitive auto-generated/filled-in code for components; easier/more automated sync between CloverETL Designer and CloverETL Server."
"Its documentation could be improved."
