AWS services for consuming data
Once the data has been transformed and optimized for analytics, the various data consumers in an organization need easy access to the data via a number of different types of interfaces. Data scientists may want to use standard SQL queries to query the data, while data analysts may want to both query the data in place using SQL and also load subsets of the data into a high-performance data warehouse for low-latency, high-concurrency queries and scheduled reporting. Business users may prefer accessing data via a visualization tool that enables them to view data represented as graphs, charts, and other types of visuals.In this section, we introduce a number of AWS services that enable different types of data consumers to work with our optimized datasets. We don't cover all services that can be used to consume data in this section, but instead highlight the primary services relevant to the data engineering role.
