Technical requirements

For this chapter, you will need the following resources:

• An AWS account
• An AWS IAM role
• An Amazon S3 bucket

All the sample code needs to be executed in a Glue runtime (for example, the Glue job system, Glue Interactive Sessions, a Glue Studio notebook, a Glue Docker container, and so on). If you do not have any preferences, we recommend using a Glue Studio notebook so that you can easily start writing code. To use a Glue Studio notebook, follow these steps:

1. Open the AWS Glue console.
2. Click AWS Glue Studio.
3. Click Jobs.
4. Under Create job, click Jupyter Notebook, then Create.
5. For Job name, enter your preferred job name.
6. For IAM Role, choose an IAM role where you have enough permission.
7. Click Start notebook job.
8. Wait for the notebook to be started.
9. Write the necessary code and run the cells on the notebook.

Let’s begin!
