2019/08/08 - AWS Glue - 13 new 16 updated api methods
Changes You can now use AWS Glue to find matching records across dataset even without identifiers to join on by using the new FindMatches ML Transform. Find related products, places, suppliers, customers, and more by teaching a custom machine learning transformation that you can use to identify matching matching records as part of your analysis, data cleaning, or master data management project by adding the FindMatches transformation to your Glue ETL Jobs. If your problem is more along the lines of deduplication, you can use the FindMatches in much the same way to identify customers who have signed up more than ones, products that have accidentally been added to your product catalog more than once, and so forth. Using the FindMatches MLTransform, you can teach a Transform your definition of a duplicate through examples, and it will use machine learning to identify other potential duplicates in your dataset. As with data integration, you can then use your new Transform in your deduplication projects by adding the FindMatches transformation to your Glue ETL Jobs. This release also contains additional APIs that support AWS Lake Formation.
Begins an asynchronous task to export all labeled data for a particular transform. This task is the only label-related API call that is not part of the typical active learning workflow. You typically use StartExportLabelsTaskRun when you want to work with all of your existing labels at the same time, such as when you want to remove or change labels that were previously submitted as truth. This API operation accepts the TransformId whose labels you want to export and an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) path to export the labels to. The operation returns a TaskRunId . You can check on the status of your task run by calling the GetMLTaskRun API.

Name (string) --
A user-defined name for the machine learning transform. Names are not guaranteed unique and can be changed at any time.
Description (string) --
A user-defined, long-form description text for the machine learning transform. Descriptions are not guaranteed to be unique and can be changed at any time.
Status (string) --
The current status of the machine learning transform.
CreatedOn (datetime) --
A timestamp. The time and date that this machine learning transform was created.
LastModifiedOn (datetime) --
A timestamp. The last point in time when this machine learning transform was modified.
InputRecordTables (list) --
A list of AWS Glue table definitions used by the transform.
(dict) --
The database and table in the AWS Glue Data Catalog that is used for input or output data.
DatabaseName (string) --
A database name in the AWS Glue Data Catalog.
TableName (string) --
A table name in the AWS Glue Data Catalog.
CatalogId (string) --
A unique identifier for the AWS Glue Data Catalog.
ConnectionName (string) --
The name of the connection to the AWS Glue Data Catalog.
Parameters (dict) --
A TransformParameters object. You can use parameters to tune (customize) the behavior of the machine learning transform by specifying what data it learns from and your preference on various tradeoffs (such as precious vs. recall, or accuracy vs. cost).
TransformType (string) --
The type of machine learning transform.
For information about the types of machine learning transforms, see Creating Machine Learning Transforms.
FindMatchesParameters (dict) --
The parameters for the find matches algorithm.
PrimaryKeyColumnName (string) --
The name of a column that uniquely identifies rows in the source table. Used to help identify matching records.
PrecisionRecallTradeoff (float) --
The value selected when tuning your transform for a balance between precision and recall. A value of 0.5 means no preference; a value of 1.0 means a bias purely for precision, and a value of 0.0 means a bias for recall. Because this is a tradeoff, choosing values close to 1.0 means very low recall, and choosing values close to 0.0 results in very low precision.
The precision metric indicates how often your model is correct when it predicts a match.
The recall metric indicates that for an actual match, how often your model predicts the match.
AccuracyCostTradeoff (float) --
The value that is selected when tuning your transform for a balance between accuracy and cost. A value of 0.5 means that the system balances accuracy and cost concerns. A value of 1.0 means a bias purely for accuracy, which typically results in a higher cost, sometimes substantially higher. A value of 0.0 means a bias purely for cost, which results in a less accurate FindMatches transform, sometimes with unacceptable accuracy.
Accuracy measures how well the transform finds true positives and true negatives. Increasing accuracy requires more machine resources and cost. But it also results in increased recall.
Cost measures how many compute resources, and thus money, are consumed to run the transform.
EnforceProvidedLabels (boolean) --
The value to switch on or off to force the output to match the provided labels from users. If the value is True , the find matches transform forces the output to match the provided labels. The results override the normal conflation results. If the value is False , the find matches transform does not ensure all the labels provided are respected, and the results rely on the trained model.
Note that setting this value to true may increase the conflation execution time.
EvaluationMetrics (dict) --
An EvaluationMetrics object. Evaluation metrics provide an estimate of the quality of your machine learning transform.
TransformType (string) --
The type of machine learning transform.
FindMatchesMetrics (dict) --
The evaluation metrics for the find matches algorithm.
AreaUnderPRCurve (float) --
The area under the precision/recall curve (AUPRC) is a single number measuring the overall quality of the transform, that is independent of the choice made for precision vs. recall. Higher values indicate that you have a more attractive precision vs. recall tradeoff.
For more information, see Precision and recall in Wikipedia.
Precision (float) --
The precision metric indicates when often your transform is correct when it predicts a match. Specifically, it measures how well the transform finds true positives from the total true positives possible.
For more information, see Precision and recall in Wikipedia.
Recall (float) --
The recall metric indicates that for an actual match, how often your transform predicts the match. Specifically, it measures how well the transform finds true positives from the total records in the source data.
For more information, see Precision and recall in Wikipedia.
F1 (float) --
The maximum F1 metric indicates the transform's accuracy between 0 and 1, where 1 is the best accuracy.
For more information, see F1 score in Wikipedia.
ConfusionMatrix (dict) --
The confusion matrix shows you what your transform is predicting accurately and what types of errors it is making.
For more information, see Confusion matrix in Wikipedia.
NumTruePositives (integer) --
The number of matches in the data that the transform correctly found, in the confusion matrix for your transform.
NumFalsePositives (integer) --
The number of nonmatches in the data that the transform incorrectly classified as a match, in the confusion matrix for your transform.
NumTrueNegatives (integer) --
The number of nonmatches in the data that the transform correctly rejected, in the confusion matrix for your transform.
NumFalseNegatives (integer) --
The number of matches in the data that the transform didn't find, in the confusion matrix for your transform.
LabelCount (integer) --
A count identifier for the labeling files generated by AWS Glue for this transform. As you create a better transform, you can iteratively download, label, and upload the labeling file.
Schema (list) --
A map of key-value pairs representing the columns and data types that this transform can run against. Has an upper bound of 100 columns.
(dict) --
A key-value pair representing a column and data type that this transform can run against. The Schema parameter of the MLTransform may contain up to 100 of these structures.
Name (string) --
The name of the column.
DataType (string) --
The type of data in the column.
Role (string) --
The name or Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role with the required permissions. This role needs permission to your Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) sources, targets, temporary directory, scripts, and any libraries used by the task run for this transform.
MaxCapacity (float) --
The number of AWS Glue data processing units (DPUs) that are allocated to task runs for this transform. You can allocate from 2 to 100 DPUs; the default is 10. A DPU is a relative measure of processing power that consists of 4 vCPUs of compute capacity and 16 GB of memory. For more information, see the AWS Glue pricing page.
When the WorkerType field is set to a value other than Standard , the MaxCapacity field is set automatically and becomes read-only.
WorkerType (string) --
The type of predefined worker that is allocated when a task of this transform runs. Accepts a value of Standard, G.1X, or G.2X.
For the Standard worker type, each worker provides 4 vCPU, 16 GB of memory and a 50GB disk, and 2 executors per worker.
For the G.1X worker type, each worker provides 4 vCPU, 16 GB of memory and a 64GB disk, and 1 executor per worker.
For the G.2X worker type, each worker provides 8 vCPU, 32 GB of memory and a 128GB disk, and 1 executor per worker.
NumberOfWorkers (integer) --
The number of workers of a defined workerType that are allocated when a task of the transform runs.
Timeout (integer) --
The timeout in minutes of the machine learning transform.
MaxRetries (integer) --
The maximum number of times to retry after an MLTaskRun of the machine learning transform fails.
NextToken (string) --
A pagination token, if more results are available.
Creates an AWS Glue machine learning transform. This operation creates the transform and all the necessary parameters to train it.
Call this operation as the first step in the process of using a machine learning transform (such as the FindMatches transform) for deduplicating data. You can provide an optional Description , in addition to the parameters that you want to use for your algorithm.
You must also specify certain parameters for the tasks that AWS Glue runs on your behalf as part of learning from your data and creating a high-quality machine learning transform. These parameters include Role , and optionally, AllocatedCapacity , Timeout , and MaxRetries . For more information, see Jobs.

A database name in the AWS Glue Data Catalog.
TableName (string) --
A table name in the AWS Glue Data Catalog.
CatalogId (string) --
A unique identifier for the AWS Glue Data Catalog.
ConnectionName (string) --
The name of the connection to the AWS Glue Data Catalog.
Parameters (dict) --
The configuration parameters that are specific to the algorithm used.
TransformType (string) --
The type of machine learning transform.
For information about the types of machine learning transforms, see Creating Machine Learning Transforms.
FindMatchesParameters (dict) --
The parameters for the find matches algorithm.
PrimaryKeyColumnName (string) --
The name of a column that uniquely identifies rows in the source table. Used to help identify matching records.
PrecisionRecallTradeoff (float) --
The value selected when tuning your transform for a balance between precision and recall. A value of 0.5 means no preference; a value of 1.0 means a bias purely for precision, and a value of 0.0 means a bias for recall. Because this is a tradeoff, choosing values close to 1.0 means very low recall, and choosing values close to 0.0 results in very low precision.
The precision metric indicates how often your model is correct when it predicts a match.
The recall metric indicates that for an actual match, how often your model predicts the match.
AccuracyCostTradeoff (float) --
The value that is selected when tuning your transform for a balance between accuracy and cost. A value of 0.5 means that the system balances accuracy and cost concerns. A value of 1.0 means a bias purely for accuracy, which typically results in a higher cost, sometimes substantially higher. A value of 0.0 means a bias purely for cost, which results in a less accurate FindMatches transform, sometimes with unacceptable accuracy.
Accuracy measures how well the transform finds true positives and true negatives. Increasing accuracy requires more machine resources and cost. But it also results in increased recall.
Cost measures how many compute resources, and thus money, are consumed to run the transform.
EnforceProvidedLabels (boolean) --
The value to switch on or off to force the output to match the provided labels from users. If the value is True , the find matches transform forces the output to match the provided labels. The results override the normal conflation results. If the value is False , the find matches transform does not ensure all the labels provided are respected, and the results rely on the trained model.
Note that setting this value to true may increase the conflation execution time.
EvaluationMetrics (dict) --
The latest evaluation metrics.
TransformType (string) --
The type of machine learning transform.
FindMatchesMetrics (dict) --
The evaluation metrics for the find matches algorithm.
AreaUnderPRCurve (float) --
The area under the precision/recall curve (AUPRC) is a single number measuring the overall quality of the transform, that is independent of the choice made for precision vs. recall. Higher values indicate that you have a more attractive precision vs. recall tradeoff.
For more information, see Precision and recall in Wikipedia.
Precision (float) --
The precision metric indicates when often your transform is correct when it predicts a match. Specifically, it measures how well the transform finds true positives from the total true positives possible.
For more information, see Precision and recall in Wikipedia.
Recall (float) --
The recall metric indicates that for an actual match, how often your transform predicts the match. Specifically, it measures how well the transform finds true positives from the total records in the source data.
For more information, see Precision and recall in Wikipedia.

Enables you to provide additional labels (examples of truth) to be used to teach the machine learning transform and improve its quality. This API operation is generally used as part of the active learning workflow that starts with the StartMLLabelingSetGenerationTaskRun call and that ultimately results in improving the quality of your machine learning transform.
After the StartMLLabelingSetGenerationTaskRun finishes, AWS Glue machine learning will have generated a series of questions for humans to answer. (Answering these questions is often called 'labeling' in the machine learning workflows). In the case of the FindMatches transform, these questions are of the form, “What is the correct way to group these rows together into groups composed entirely of matching records?” After the labeling process is finished, users upload their answers/labels with a call to StartImportLabelsTaskRun . After StartImportLabelsTaskRun finishes, all future runs of the machine learning transform use the new and improved labels and perform a higher-quality transformation.
By default, StartMLLabelingSetGenerationTaskRun continually learns from and combines all labels that you upload unless you set Replace to true. If you set Replace to true, StartImportLabelsTaskRun deletes and forgets all previously uploaded labels and learns only from the exact set that you upload. Replacing labels can be helpful if you realize that you previously uploaded incorrect labels, and you believe that they are having a negative effect on your transform quality.
You can check on the status of your task run by calling the GetMLTaskRun operation.

string
The ID of the Data Catalog where the partitions in question reside. If none is provided, the AWS account ID is used by default.
string
[REQUIRED]
The name of the catalog database where the partitions reside.
string
[REQUIRED]
The name of the partitions' table.
string
An expression that filters the partitions to be returned.
The expression uses SQL syntax similar to the SQL WHERE filter clause. The SQL statement parser JSQLParser parses the expression.
Operators : The following are the operators that you can use in the Expression API call:
=
Checks whether the values of the two operands are equal; if yes, then the condition becomes true.
Example: Assume 'variable a' holds 10 and 'variable b' holds 20.
(a = b) is not true.
< >
Checks whether the values of two operands are equal; if the values are not equal, then the condition becomes true.
Example: (a < > b) is true.
>
Checks whether the value of the left operand is greater than the value of the right operand; if yes, then the condition becomes true.
Example: (a > b) is not true.
<
Checks whether the value of the left operand is less than the value of the right operand; if yes, then the condition becomes true.
Example: (a < b) is true.
>=
Checks whether the value of the left operand is greater than or equal to the value of the right operand; if yes, then the condition becomes true.
Example: (a >= b) is not true.
<=
Checks whether the value of the left operand is less than or equal to the value of the right operand; if yes, then the condition becomes true.
Example: (a <= b) is true.
AND, OR, IN, BETWEEN, LIKE, NOT, IS NULL
Logical operators.
Supported Partition Key Types : The following are the supported partition keys.
string
date
timestamp
int
bigint
long
tinyint
smallint
decimal
If an invalid type is encountered, an exception is thrown.
The following list shows the valid operators on each type. When you define a crawler, the partitionKey type is created as a STRING , to be compatible with the catalog partitions.
