AWS Data Exchange Reviews & Insights

We wanted to use AWS Data Exchange to list, sell and deliver our dataset in the open market. We have roughly 22 datasets that cover specific topical areas and industries. We update these sets on a monthly or quarterly basis depending on the data.

We use AWS Data Exchange as a straightforward solution to publish datasets from our healthcare solutions platform. This is a great way to get simulated datasets that we generate using machine learning methodologies out to potential clients, and to encourage the various partnerships we have with research divisions at universities that use datasets generated by our organization. Being able to point AWS Data Exchange at existing data sources such as AWS S3 and AWS Redshift has really helped us to simplify the process of delivering data to our clients and users.

AWS Data Exchange fits best for scenarios where you have datasets that you would like to sell and you want to deliver it to anyone who would like to purchase it. It really beats having to set up downloads via your own website or portal. However, it can get complicated to manage if you're trying to deliver a dataset a client has already paid for.
