Big Data Blog



This article discusses how organizations can use Amazon EMR on AWS Outposts to perform hybrid big data analytics while maintaining data residency and compliance requirements. The solution focuses on a fictional company, Oktank Finance, and their need to process sensitive and public data.

  • Amazon EMR on AWS Outposts allows big data processing directly in on-premises environments
  • Enables processing of sensitive data locally while accessing public data from cloud S3 buckets
  • Supports decoupling of compute and storage resources
  • Uses AWS Glue Data Catalog and Lake Formation for metadata management and access control
  • Provides two data processing methods: interactive notebook queries and batch job submissions

The solution demonstrates how companies can leverage hybrid cloud infrastructure to perform complex data analytics while maintaining strict data governance and performance requirements.
