AWS Glue

AWS Glue is a fully managed serverless extract, transform, and load (ETL) service that makes it easy to discover, prepare, and combine data for analytics, machine learning, and application development. It provides a central data catalog, crawlers for automated metadata discovery, visual and code-based job authoring, and data quality capabilities. The Glue API uses AWS Signature Version 4 (SigV4) authentication and is accessed via SDKs, the AWS CLI, or direct HTTPS calls to regional service endpoints.

AWS Glue publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: AWS Glue API API. Tagged areas include Data, Data Catalog, ETL, Analytics, and Serverless.

AWS Glue’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, pricing, CLI, support, engineering blog, and 10 more developer resources.
