AWS Glue vs. Fivetran

One of AWS Glue's most notable features that aid in the creation and transformation of data is its data catalog. Support, scheduling, and the automation of the data schema recognition make it superior to its competitors aside from that. It also integrates perfectly with other AWS tools. The main restriction may be integrated with systems outside of the AWS environment. It functions flawlessly with the current AWS services but not with other goods. Another potential restriction that comes to mind is that glue operates on a spark, which means the engineer needs to be conversant in the language.

Fivetran's business model justifies the use-case where we require data from a single source basically a lot of data but if the requirement is not on the heavier side, Fivetran comes to costly operation when compared to its peers. Otherwise, I'll recommend Fivetran for stability and update and seamless service provider.

• It is extremely fast, easy, and self-intuitive. Though it is a suite of services, it requires pretty less time to get control over it.
• As it is a managed service, one need not take care of a lot of underlying details. The identification of data schema, code generation, customization, and orchestration of the different job components allows the developers to focus on the core business problem without worrying about infrastructure issues.
• It is a pay-as-you-go service. So, there is no need to provide any capacity in advance. So, it makes scheduling much easier.

• Easily connects to source data using delivered connectors
• Transforms data into standard models and schemas
• Has very good documentation to help quickly setup connectors

Incentivized

• In-Stream schema registries feature people can not use this more efficiently
• in Connections feature they can add more connectors as well
• The crucial problem with AWS Glue is that it only works with AWS.

Incentivized

• More detailed logging
• More flexible choices for time range over which records are synced
• More options for masking and excluding sensitive data

Just need to input connection info.

It runs pretty well and gets our data from point A to point cluster quickly enough. Honestly, it's not something I think about unless it breaks and that's pretty rare.

Amazon responds in good time once the ticket has been generated but needs to generate tickets frequent because very few sample codes are available, and it's not cover all the scenarios.

AWS Glue is a fully managed ETL service that automates many ETL tasks, making it easier to set AWS Glue simplifies ETL through a visual interface and automated code generation.

We never seriously considered using anything else. Our data engineers had used Fivetran extensively in previous roles so when it came time to make a decision, there wasn't much of a process. They gladly signed the contract with Fivetran pretty quickly.

• It had a positive impact on the way we build our data lake.
• It is the single source of truth for data structure (schemas/tables/views).

Incentivized

• Development cost have reduced for each connector
• The pay-per-use model is still not out their which requires lot of overhead cost
