What is AWS Glue Auto Scaling and how does it reduce cost?
Click to reveal answer
Glue Auto Scaling dynamically adjusts the number of active workers during job execution based on workload. Benefits: Automatically scales down workers during sparse processing phases (e.g., after a large join that needed many workers). You're only charged for workers actually used. Enable: Set `--enable-auto-scaling` in job parameters or enable in the console. Available for Glue Spark ETL jobs (not Python Shell).
