AWS Glue launches native REST API connector for universal data integration

AWS Glue now offers a native REST-based connector that enables customers to easily read data from any source with a REST-based API. Customers can now create custom connectors to any REST-enabled data source and seamlessly integrate that data into their AWS Glue ETL (Extract, Transform, and Load) jobs. This capability extends AWS Glue’s existing connectivity to 100+ non-AWS data sources through 60+ native connectors and additional options on AWS Marketplace. Previously, connecting to proprietary systems or emerging platforms required customers to build custom connectors by providing specialized JARs with the necessary libraries. The new native REST API connector eliminates this complexity, making it easier to integrate data from any REST-enabled source. It reduces operational overhead by eliminating the need to install, update, or manage custom libraries, freeing teams from maintenance burdens. The connector also enhances flexibility, enabling organizations to quickly adapt to new data sources as business needs evolve. It also streamlines ETL management by allowing data engineers to focus on data transformation and business logic rather than spending time building and maintaining connector infrastructure. The AWS Glue REST API connector is available in all AWS commercial regions where AWS Glue is available. You can start using the AWS Glue REST API connector using AWS Glue APIs, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or AWS Software Development Kit (SDK). To get started, see AWS Glue documentation.
