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.

Data lake layouts

A data lake layout refers to the way that data is organized and structured within a data lake. This can include the physical location of the data within the data lake, as well as the logical organization of the data into different categories, such as structured and unstructured data.

In general, data lake layouts are designed to support the efficient storage and management of large amounts of data from a variety of different sources. This can include organizing data by source, by type, or by some other criterion that is relevant to the organization’s data management needs.

Some common elements of data lake layouts include the following:

  • Physical location: The physical location of the data within the data lake, such as on-premises storage or cloud-based storage
  • Logical organization: The logical organization of the data into different categories, such as structured and unstructured data
  • Data lineage: The history of the data, including where...
