Evangelos has extensive experience with data lake architectures, scalable data pipelines, software design, and Big Data processing frameworks.
About the presentation
Join the session to learn about crucial caveats and best practices when working with a data lake with thousands of partitions built with AWS. We will take you through some of the less-known aspects of AWS Glue Crawlers and Amazon Athena that become crucial when the size of the data catalog grows. Based on this, we will discuss the problems that we initially faced, the insights we discovered along the way, and the applied solutions to achieve optimum performance without disruptions.
