Functioning of Data Lakes Built on Amazon S3

 Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) is a cloud-based and optimized data storage service, storing data in its native format regardless of whether it is unstructured, semi-structured, or structured. The durability of data in S3 is 99.999999999 (11 9s) and data in any volume is stored in a fully safe and secured environment.

Many competencies can be used when an S3 data lake is built on Amazon S3. The critical ones are media data processing applications, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), big data analytics, and high-performance computing (HPC). When all these are linked up, businesses get access to critical data and business intelligence and analytics from unstructured data sets as well as the S3 data lake.

There are several benefits of Amazon S3 data lake.

Computing and storage facilities are in different silos in S3 data lake and data in any format can be stored here. Compare this with traditional systems where computing and storage were closely interlinked, making estimating the costs of maintaining each facility almost impossible. 

Users on S3 data lake get access to Amazon S3 serverless computing. Here codes can be run without having to provision or manage servers. Data processing, querying, and implementation can be carried out both on serverless and non-cluster Amazon Web Service platforms. These include Amazon Athena, Amazon Rekognition, Amazon Redshift Spectrum, and AWS Glue.

Finally, the APUs of the S3 data lake issupported by several third-party vendors like Amazon Hadoop that can be easily used on the S3 data lake.

These are the advanced features and capabilities of the S3 data lake that make it stand out among the traditional data lakes.

Capturing Data with the SAP Extractor

The SAP Extractor is a program in SAP ERP that can be both customized or taken from a standard Data Source. It prepares and captures data through an extract structure that can be transferred to the Business Warehouse of SAP. Both the options of the SAP Extractor help to describe a delta load process or various types of full load. The SAP BW can remotely access the various data transfer activities of the SAP Extractor . For more on SAP Extractor, click here. SAP Extractor executes SAP data extraction in three ways. The first is Content Extraction used to extract BW content, FI, HR, CO, SAP CRM, and LO cockpit. The second is Customer-Generated Extraction where the SAP Extractor is used for LIS, FI-SL, CO-PA. The third is Generic Extraction which is based on DB View, Infoset, Function Modules. The SAP Extractor used for a specific extraction activity depends on the particular needs of an organization. Data capturing and extraction with the SAP Extractor is initiated with the h...

The Evolution of Technology of Oracle Change Data Capture

Oracle change data capture ( CDC) was first launched with the 9i version as an in-built tool of the Oracle database. It was a tool that recorded and monitored all changes made in the user tables in a database. These changes were then stored in change tables and used in ETL applications for later processing and transferring to other data warehouses and databases. The release version of Oracle change data capture   had triggers placed in the source database. However, database administrators found this technology very invasive and did not favor it. Ultimately, Oracle changed the Oracle change data capture   technology and released it with the 10g version after naming it Oracle Streams.  The working of this release was different. Oracle change data capture   used the redo logs of the source database along with a replication tool of Oracle Streams. This technology turned out to be very successful and a highly optimized method to identify and move change data to a target ...

Building a Data Lake on Amazon Simple Storage Service

Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) is a cloud-based data storage service that stores data in its native format. Data durability of S3 is always at a high of 99.999999999 (11 9s), and the data regardless of the volume is stored in a fully secured and safe ecosystem. In Amazon S3, data files that contain metadata and objects are stored in buckets for uploading. For metadata and files, the object is to be uploaded to S3. After this step, permissions can be granted on the metadata or related objects stored in the buckets. Many competencies can be used when an S 3 data lake   is built on Amazon S3. These include media data processing applications, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), big data analytics, and high-performance computing (HPC). When all these are used in conjunction, businesses get access to critical data, business intelligence, and analytics from S3 data lake and unstructured data sets. There are several benefits of the S3 data lake. The first is differe...
