Important
In Collibra 2024.05, we launched a new user interface (UI) for Collibra Data Intelligence Platform! You can learn more about this latest UI in the UI overview.
Use the following options to see the documentation in the latest UI or in the previous, classic UI:
Amazon S3 or Amazon Simple Storage Service is an online object storage service hosted by Amazon. For more information, visit the Amazon S3 documentation.
In Collibra Data Intelligence Platform, you can either integrate or register an Amazon S3 file system. It's important to understand the difference between integrating and registering because the result in Collibra is different.| Possible way to work with Amazon S3 | Result in Collibra | Steps |
|---|---|---|
If you integrate an Amazon S3 file system, the resulting assets represent the Amazon S3 folder structure by means of Amazon S3 Bucket, Directory, File, Table and Column assets. | ||
| Registering an Amazon S3 file system via the AWS Glue JDBC connector | If you register an Amazon S3 file system via the AWS (Amazon Web Services) Glue JDBC connector, the resulting assets represent the columns and the tables in Amazon S3 without the folder context. You can profile and classify the data, but the folder structure of your Amazon S3 environment isn't represented in Data Catalog.The AWS Glue JDBC connector leverages the Athena JDBC driver. |
