Implementing Slowly Changing Dimensions in a Data Lake with AWS Glue and Delta
In the realm of data warehousing, a dimension serves as a framework that classifies facts and metrics, enabling users to address business inquiries effectively. For instance, within a sales environment, dimensions might include customer, time, or product, while sales transactions represent the associated facts. As time progresses, the attributes within these dimensions can change; for example, a customer may modify their address or preferences.
In this blog post, we explore how to implement slowly changing dimensions in a data lake using AWS Glue and Delta Lake. This technique is essential for maintaining accurate and up-to-date data in your analytics, ensuring that historical changes are accounted for without losing valuable context.
