AWS Batch dynamically provisions the optimal quantity and type of compute resources (e.g., CPU or memory optimized instances) based on the volume and specific resource requirements of the batch jobs submitted. With AWS Batch, there is no need to install and manage batch computing software or server clusters that you use to run your jobs, allowing you to focus on analyzing results and solving problems. AWS Batch plans, schedules, and executes your batch computing workloads across the full range of AWS compute services and features, such as AWS Fargate, Amazon EC2 and Spot Instances. There is no additional charge for AWS Batch. You only pay for the AWS resources (e.g. EC2 instances or Fargate jobs) you create to store and run your batch jobs.

The Apache Hive data warehouse software facilitates reading, writing, and managing large datasets residing in distributed storage using SQL. Structure can be projected onto data already in storage. A command line tool and JDBC driver are provided to connect users to Hive. Apache Hive is an open source project run by volunteers at the Apache Software Foundation. Previously it was a subproject of Apache® Hadoop®, but has now graduated to become a top-level project of its own. We encourage you to learn about the project and contribute your expertise. Traditional SQL queries must be implemented in the MapReduce Java API to execute SQL applications and queries over distributed data. Hive provides the necessary SQL abstraction to integrate SQL-like queries (HiveQL) into the underlying Java without the need to implement queries in the low-level Java API.

Develop on your laptop and then scale the same Python code elastically across hundreds of nodes or GPUs on any cloud, with no changes. Ray translates existing Python concepts to the distributed setting, allowing any serial application to be easily parallelized with minimal code changes. Easily scale compute-heavy machine learning workloads like deep learning, model serving, and hyperparameter tuning with a strong ecosystem of distributed libraries. Scale existing workloads (for eg. Pytorch) on Ray with minimal effort by tapping into integrations. Native Ray libraries, such as Ray Tune and Ray Serve, lower the effort to scale the most compute-intensive machine learning workloads, such as hyperparameter tuning, training deep learning models, and reinforcement learning. For example, get started with distributed hyperparameter tuning in just 10 lines of code. Creating distributed apps is hard. Ray handles all aspects of distributed execution.

Amazon SageMaker is a fully managed service that provides every developer and data scientist with the ability to build, train, and deploy machine learning (ML) models quickly. SageMaker removes the heavy lifting from each step of the machine learning process to make it easier to develop high quality models. Traditional ML development is a complex, expensive, iterative process made even harder because there are no integrated tools for the entire machine learning workflow. You need to stitch together tools and workflows, which is time-consuming and error-prone. SageMaker solves this challenge by providing all of the components used for machine learning in a single toolset so models get to production faster with much less effort and at lower cost. Amazon SageMaker Studio provides a single, web-based visual interface where you can perform all ML development steps. SageMaker Studio gives you complete access, control, and visibility into each step required.

Version control, quality assurance, documentation and modularity allow data teams to collaborate like software engineering teams. Analytics errors should be treated with the same level of urgency as bugs in a production product. Much of an analytic workflow is manual. We believe workflows should be built to execute with a single command. Data teams use dbt to codify business logic and make it accessible to the entire organization—for use in reporting, ML modeling, and operational workflows. Built-in CI/CD ensures that changes to data models move appropriately through development, staging, and production environments. dbt Cloud also provides guaranteed uptime and custom SLAs.

SQLAlchemy is the Python SQL toolkit and object-relational mapper that gives application developers the full power and flexibility of SQL. SQL databases behave less like object collections the more size and performance start to matter; object collections behave less like tables and rows the more abstraction starts to matter. SQLAlchemy aims to accommodate both of these principles. SQLAlchemy considers the database to be a relational algebra engine, not just a collection of tables. Rows can be selected from not only tables but also joins and other select statements; any of these units can be composed into a larger structure. SQLAlchemy's expression language builds on this concept from its core. SQLAlchemy is most famous for its object-relational mapper (ORM), an optional component that provides the data mapper pattern.

Apache Spark™ is a unified analytics engine for large-scale data processing. Apache Spark achieves high performance for both batch and streaming data, using a state-of-the-art DAG scheduler, a query optimizer, and a physical execution engine. Spark offers over 80 high-level operators that make it easy to build parallel apps. And you can use it interactively from the Scala, Python, R, and SQL shells. Spark powers a stack of libraries including SQL and DataFrames, MLlib for machine learning, GraphX, and Spark Streaming. You can combine these libraries seamlessly in the same application. Spark runs on Hadoop, Apache Mesos, Kubernetes, standalone, or in the cloud. It can access diverse data sources. You can run Spark using its standalone cluster mode, on EC2, on Hadoop YARN, on Mesos, or on Kubernetes. Access data in HDFS, Alluxio, Apache Cassandra, Apache HBase, Apache Hive, and hundreds of other data sources.

Dask is open source and freely available. It is developed in coordination with other community projects like NumPy, pandas, and scikit-learn. Dask uses existing Python APIs and data structures to make it easy to switch between NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn to their Dask-powered equivalents. Dask's schedulers scale to thousand-node clusters and its algorithms have been tested on some of the largest supercomputers in the world. But you don't need a massive cluster to get started. Dask ships with schedulers designed for use on personal machines. Many people use Dask today to scale computations on their laptop, using multiple cores for computation and their disk for excess storage. Dask exposes lower-level APIs letting you build custom systems for in-house applications. This helps open source leaders parallelize their own packages and helps business leaders scale custom business logic.

Processing and storing tabular datasets, e.g. from CSV or Parquet files. Large result set transfer to client. Large client/server installations for centralized enterprise data warehousing. Writing to a single database from multiple concurrent processes. DuckDB is a relational database management system (RDBMS). That means it is a system for managing data stored in relations. A relation is essentially a mathematical term for a table. Each table is a named collection of rows. Each row of a given table has the same set of named columns, and each column is of a specific data type. Tables themselves are stored inside schemas, and a collection of schemas constitutes the entire database that you can access.
