Overview of this book

Data wrangling is the process of cleaning, transforming, and organizing raw, messy, or unstructured data into a structured format. It involves processes such as data cleaning, data integration, data transformation, and data enrichment to ensure that the data is accurate, consistent, and suitable for analysis. Data Wrangling on AWS equips you with the knowledge to reap the full potential of AWS data wrangling tools. First, you’ll be introduced to data wrangling on AWS and will be familiarized with data wrangling services available in AWS. You’ll understand how to work with AWS Glue DataBrew, AWS data wrangler, and AWS Sagemaker. Next, you’ll discover other AWS services like Amazon S3, Redshift, Athena, and Quicksight. Additionally, you’ll explore advanced topics such as performing Pandas data operation with AWS data wrangler, optimizing ML data with AWS SageMaker, building the data warehouse with Glue DataBrew, along with security and monitoring aspects. By the end of this book, you’ll be well-equipped to perform data wrangling using AWS services.

Summary

In this chapter, we learned how to use AWS SDK for pandas (aka awswrangler). We explored various components available in the awswrangler library and how it brings pandas DataFrames closer to the AWS ecosystem. We learned how to customize and install the library for different use cases and development environments. We also looked at awswrangler integration with AWS services, such as Amazon S3, Amazon RDS, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon Athena, and the different features available within awswrangler.

In the next chapter, we will learn about SageMaker Data Wrangler, which helps us perform data-wrangling activities as a part of ML pipelines.
