Data has become the cornerstone of modern business success, driving everything from customer personalization to inventory management. But more data means more complexity – and organizations need a way to efficiently control access while maintaining compliance, particularly as operations scale.
Amazon EMR with Apache Spark gives businesses the tools to tackle massive datasets head-on — delivering speed, scalability, and simplicity without the hassle of managing infrastructure. Now, with Immuta supporting Amazon EMR via AWS Lake Formation, organizations can reach greater potential, combining powerful data processing with secure, effortless governance.
Why Amazon EMR is a must-have for big data
Amazon EMR is designed to make big data manageable for everyone. By running Apache Spark on a fully managed service, EMR enables organizations to process massive datasets, perform real-time analytics, and build machine learning models with ease. It’s no wonder businesses across industries rely on EMR to turn overwhelming data challenges into actionable insights.
Amazon EMR is built for versatility, allowing users to tackle everything from batch processing to real-time streaming and machine learning. And since EMR can handle workloads of any size, you can drive adoption and scale its use effortlessly.
Whether you’re a retailer personalizing customer experiences or a healthcare provider analyzing clinical data, EMR works hand-in-hand with AWS services to streamline workflows and ensure your data is accessible and secure – no matter the use case.
Amazon EMR governance without the headaches
While EMR Spark simplifies processing, managing data access across complex environments can still be a challenge. As data volumes and users grow, and regulatory requirements become more complex, the challenge of managing data availability, accessibility, and activity proliferates.
As a result, data teams are accountable for controlling who has access to what data, and what they do with it. Without the right tools, governance becomes a bottleneck, slowing teams down and increasing risk.
How Immuta bridges the gap between speed and security
Immuta provides a unified platform that enables fast, controlled access to data, so users can quickly find and safely access the data they need – when they need it. By seamlessly supporting AWS Lake Formation and Amazon EMR, Immuta ensures that organizations can scale their data efforts securely and confidently, without getting bogged down in manual processes.
How Immuta works with EMR Spark:
- Smart policies: Automatically enforce data access policies based on who’s using the data and how it’s being accessed.
- Automated workflows: Eliminate the repetitive tasks that slow teams down, freeing them to focus on what matters.
