The AWS Solutions team has updated the Data Lake Solution, an automated reference implementation that deploys a highly available, cost-effective data lake architecture on the AWS Cloud along with a user-friendly console for searching and requesting datasets. The solution now includes a federated template that allows you to launch a version of the solution that is ready to integrate with Microsoft Active Directory.  

The solution implements a data lake API, which leverages HAQM API Gateway to provide access to data lake microservices that interact with HAQM S3, HAQM CloudFront, AWS Glue, HAQM Athena, HAQM DynamoDB, HAQM ES, and HAQM CloudWatch. To learn more about the Data Lake Solution, see the solution webpage.

The AWS Solutions team communicates AWS architectural best practices and develops standardized, automated solutions for the platform. Our offerings currently live on the AWS Answers webpage, where customers can browse common questions by category to find answers in the form of succinct Solution Briefs or comprehensive Solutions, which are AWS-vetted, automated, turnkey reference implementations that address specific business needs.
