ETL pipeline with Amazon Redshift and AWS Glue

View Code

This example creates an ETL pipeline using Amazon Redshift and AWS Glue. The pipeline extracts data from an S3 bucket with a Glue crawler, transforms it with a Python script wrapped in a Glue job, and loads it into a Redshift database deployed in a VPC.

Prerequisites

1. Install Pulumi.
2. Install Python.
3. Configure your AWS credentials.

Deploying the App

1. Clone this repo, change to this directory, then create a new stack for the project:

   pulumi stack init
   

   Copy Copy

2. Specify an AWS region to deploy into:

   pulumi config set aws:region us-west-2
   

   Copy Copy

3. Install Python dependencies and run Pulumi:

   python3 -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   
   pulumi up
   

   Copy Copy

4. In a few moments, the Redshift cluster and Glue components will be up and running and the S3 bucket name emitted as a Pulumi stack output.

   ...
   Outputs:
       dataBucketName: "events-56e424a"
   

   Copy Copy

5. Upload the included sample data file to S3 to verify the automation works as expected:

   aws s3 cp events-1.txt s3://$(pulumi stack output dataBucketName)
   

   Copy Copy

6. When you’re ready, destroy your stack and remove it:

   pulumi destroy --yes
   pulumi stack rm --yes
