Reporting Data Layer

Hi, please where it is possible to download DDL scripts for Reporting Layer version 1.4 that is documented at https://productresources.collibra.com/docs/reporting/1.4/#Reporting/co_reporting-intro.htm ?

This Marketplace listing allows to download version 1.3 only that doesn’t have DDL for complex relations.
Thank you.

Hope this thread is still active.
We are a big user and fan of the RDL! Some questions and thoughts:

• We are looking into moving our RDL solution to the cloud.; there are many routes we could take, but just thinking outside the box here: could it be possible to get read only access to the cloud filesystem directly (I presume this is a S3 bucket). This would make the transfer to our cloud storage much more convenient and would open so many possibilities.
• the RDL snapshot is ready at about 8:00AM local time which is rather late. We export and import in our reporting solution daily and because the attribute object is getting really big, and the processing takes more and more time: making the new RDL data only available at noon in our RDL solution. Processing also only can start at 8:00 which puts a burden on our processing system. Nightly processing would be more ideal. Any chance we could shift the start of the snapshot creation to an earlier time so that it’s ready at let’s say 3 a 4AM-ish local time.

Thanks!

Hi Tom,
regarding your first point, we have written a simple Glue python shell job that in few lines retrieves the data from API using request package, it extracts the zip into a s3 bucket using zipfile and boto3 and using boto3, it also generates a view which have a query that uses only the latest snapshot/partition . We also use authlib library for jwt authentication.

The Job runs daily and provides convenient backup of the data and good base for analytics.

The new python 3.9 shell jobs are very easy to use including packages installation https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/aws-glue-python-shell-now-supports-python-3-9-with-a-flexible-pre-loaded-environment-and-support-to-install-additional-libraries/
