AWS Glue 5.1 is now available in 18 additional regions

AWS Glue 5.1 is now available in eighteen additional AWS Regions: Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Hyderabad, Jakarta, Melbourne, Osaka, Seoul, Taipei), Canada (Calgary, Central), Europe (London, Milan, Paris, Zurich), Israel (Tel Aviv), Mexico (Central), Middle East (Bahrain, UAE), and US West (N. California).

AWS Glue is a serverless, scalable data integration service that simplifies discovering, preparing, moving, and integrating data from multiple sources. AWS Glue 5.1 upgrades core engines to Apache Spark 3.5.6, Python 3.11, and Scala 2.12.18, bringing performance and security enhancements. It also updates support for open table format libraries, including Apache Hudi 1.0.2, Apache Iceberg 1.10.0, and Delta Lake 3.3.2. Additionally, AWS Glue 5.1 introduces support for Apache Iceberg format version 3.0, adding default column values, deletion vectors for merge-on-read tables, multi-argument transforms, and row lineage tracking. This release also extends AWS Lake Formation fine-grained access control to write operations (both DML and DDL) for Spark DataFrames and Spark SQL. Previously, this capability was limited to read operations only. AWS Glue 5.1 also adds full-table access control in Apache Spark for Apache Hudi and Delta Lake tables, providing more comprehensive security options for your data.

With this expansion, AWS Glue 5.1 is now available in thirty-three AWS Regions.

You can get started with AWS Glue 5.1 using AWS Glue APIs, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), AWS Software Development Kit (SDK), AWS Glue Studio, or Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio. To learn more, visit the AWS Glue product page and our documentation.
