Customer Challenge

The organization required a cloud data lake for business analytics to consolidate vehicle marketplace data from multiple sources, enable secure data processing, and deliver real-time business intelligence. The AWS Data Lake architecture supports Amazon Athena, Amazon QuickSight, and Microsoft Power BI, providing scalable analytics and faster business insights.

    Why AWS?

    AWS provides secure, reliable, scalable, and affordable cloud computing services. To leverage scalability, AWS can easily manage increasing workloads by allocating resources based on demand. Offering products ranging from hosting data in the cloud with S3 to logical isolation with Amazon VPC. AWS Lambda is designed to let you run your code without setting up and managing servers. AWS SQS (fully managed message queue) for communicating with Lambda based on events in S3.
    New data comes into the input bucket in S3. Amazon S3 publishes events to an SQS queue and transfers data to the queue. Queued data is retrieved using AWS Lambda. Data is processed by Lambda and returned to the S3 output bucket. The same process is used and data is consumed from a local MS SQL Server.
