Big Data Blog



This article details how to build a secure serverless streaming data pipeline using Amazon MSK Serverless, Amazon EMR Serverless, and IAM authentication. The solution enables real-time data processing and analytics with minimal infrastructure management.

  • Uses a serverless architecture with MSK Serverless for data ingestion and EMR Serverless for processing
  • Implements IAM authentication for secure Kafka cluster access
  • Enables near real-time data processing using Spark Structured Streaming
  • Stores processed data in Amazon S3 and creates a corresponding AWS Glue Data Catalog table
  • Allows data querying through Amazon Athena for instant insights

The end-to-end solution demonstrates a simplified, secure method for streaming data processing that removes the complexity of traditional Kafka and Spark streaming configurations.
