AWS Glue zero-ETL integrations with Amazon DynamoDB as the source support new configurations

AWS Glue zero-ETL now supports configurable change data capture (CDC) refresh intervals and on-demand data ingestion for integrations with Amazon DynamoDB as the source. This enhancement can help you to customize how frequently data changes are captured from your Amazon DynamoDB tables, with refresh intervals ranging from 15 minutes to 6 days, and trigger immediate data ingestion when needed. These capabilities bring zero-ETL integrations from Amazon DynamoDB sources to feature parity with zero-ETL integrations from SaaS sources, like Salesforce, SAP, and ServiceNow, ensuring consistent functionality across different source types.

With configurable CDC refresh intervals, you can optimize your data pipeline performance by adjusting the frequency of change capture to match your specific business requirements—whether you need near real-time updates every 15 minutes or can work with longer intervals up to 6 days to reduce costs. The on-demand ingestion capability allows you to immediately capture critical data changes without waiting for the next scheduled CDC interval. This functionality is ideal for scenarios that require data to be immediately available for analytics, reporting, or downstream applications and helps strike a balance between data freshness requirements and operational efficiency.

These features are available today in all AWS regions where AWS Glue zero-ETL is supported.

To get started with configuring CDC refresh intervals and on-demand ingestion for your Amazon DynamoDB integrations, see the AWS Glue User Guide. To learn more about AWS Glue zero-ETL integrations, visit the AWS Glue documentation.
