About integrating an Amazon S3 file system

The Amazon S3 file system integration allows for the registration of Amazon S3 as a data source in Collibra and the synchronization of metadata in Amazon S3. After the synchronization, the files and directories of Amazon S3 are represented in Collibra by specific asset types, retaining the original names. However, not all file types are fully supported.

Note 
  • You can restrict the AWS regions to which Data Catalog is allowed to connect. This step is recommended for efficient synchronization.
  • If you integrate an Amazon S3 file system, you can't profile or classify data. If you want to be able to profile and classify the data, go to Two ways to work with Amazon S3.

You can integrate Amazon S3 file systems via Edge or via Jobserver.
