Technical requirements
To follow along with the examples in this chapter, you will need the following:
- Access to GitHub, S3, and the AWS console (specifically AWS Glue, AWS Lake Formation, and Amazon S3).
- A computer with Chrome, Safari, or Microsoft Edge installed and the AWS command-line interface (AWS CLI):
- Regarding the AWS CLI, you can use not only the AWS CLI but also AWS CLI version 2. In this chapter, the AWS CLI (not version 2) will be used. You can set up the AWS CLI (and version 2) by going to https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-getting-started.html.
- An AWS account and an accompanying IAM user (or IAM role) with sufficient privileges to complete this chapter’s activities. We recommend using a minimally scoped IAM policy to avoid unnecessary usage and making operational mistakes. You can get the IAM policy for this chapter from this book’s GitHub repository, which can be found at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Serverless...
