Project Overview

I worked on a data engineering project focused on secure data migration and real-time data streaming. The goal was to establish an on-premise source connection to transfer data to the cloud and create a streaming pipeline for real-time IoT data analytics.

Key Objectives

  • • Migrate data from an on-premise file server to AWS cloud storage securely
  • • Design and implement a real-time streaming pipeline for continuous data ingestion and processing
  • • Ensure data integrity, security, and scalability by leveraging AWS services

Implementation Details

1. On-Premise to Cloud Data Migration

  • • Configured an AWS Storage Gateway to enable secure data transfer from an on-premise file server to Amazon S3
  • • Used AWS CloudFormation for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to automate deployment of necessary services
  • • Set up monitoring and alerts with AWS CloudWatch to track data transfer and system health

2. Streaming Data Pipeline for IoT Analytics

  • • Built a real-time data streaming pipeline using Amazon Kinesis for ingesting IoT data
  • • Integrated AWS Lambda for real-time processing and transformation of incoming data
  • • Stored structured data in Amazon DynamoDB for efficient querying and analytics
  • • Used Amazon EC2 instances to run additional processing workloads and facilitate system scalability
  • • Configured AWS SNS (Simple Notification Service) to trigger alerts based on system health and failures

3. Security and Performance Optimization

  • • Implemented IAM roles and policies to control data access and security
  • • Optimized network configurations for seamless data transfer with minimal latency
  • • Set up auto-scaling to handle fluctuations in streaming data volume

Outcome & Impact

This project delivered a secure, scalable, and real-time data pipeline, enabling seamless cloud integration and efficient data processing for IoT analytics. The solution enhanced operational efficiency, ensuring data availability and integrity while adhering to best AWS practices.
