AWS Glue, Amazon's serverless data integration service, now offers an official ClickHouse Connector, available in the AWS Marketplace, which simplifies the process of working with ClickHouse using Apache Spark-based ETL jobs. This connector allows users to work with PySpark or Scala within AWS Glue environments by eliminating the need for manual installation and management of the ClickHouse Spark connector. The connector is designed to work with AWS Glue version 4, supporting Spark 3.3, Scala 2, and Python 3, and can be configured with various job parameters for different environments. In addition to writing and reading data between Spark DataFrames and ClickHouse, the connector supports executing DDL operations within Spark SQL, enabling users to create and manage database tables seamlessly. The blog also discusses setting up IAM roles, configuring job parameters, and optimizing Glue jobs for production use, along with providing insights into the connector's future roadmap, such as supporting AWS Glue's no-code interface and enhanced IAM role integration.
