AWS Big Data & Analytics: A Guide for Global Enterprises

How to build scalable data lakes with Amazon EMR, Redshift, and Glue—and turn raw data into actionable business intelligence.

28 February 20267 min readVinay Nagpal

The modern data stack on AWS

Enterprises generate data from CRM, ERP, IoT devices, and marketing platforms. AWS provides a cohesive stack—S3 for storage, Glue for ETL, EMR for large-scale processing, and Redshift for analytics warehousing.

A well-designed architecture separates ingestion, processing, and consumption layers so teams can scale independently without runaway costs.

Building your first data lake

Land raw data in S3 with partitioned prefixes by date and source. Use AWS Glue crawlers to catalog schemas and Glue jobs to transform data into curated datasets.

Apply IAM policies and encryption at rest. For Indian and EU clients, consider regional buckets and compliance requirements during design.

From data to decisions

Connect Redshift or Athena to BI tools like QuickSight or Tableau. Build KPI dashboards tied to sales pipeline, customer churn, and operational efficiency.
