Hi Jon984732,
Thanks for your feedback. We’ve reviewed and updated the question and explanation to clarify that the data in Amazon S3 is not partitioned. This helps explain why the AWS Glue jobs take longer and why partitioning the data is a relevant solution.
To briefly explain: partitioning the data by year, month, and day helps AWS Glue process only the necessary files instead of scanning everything, which speeds up the job. Using a larger worker type gives the job more compute resources, allowing it to finish faster.
These two actions help reduce the Glue job runtime, which improves the QuickSight dashboard performance.
Let us know if you have more suggestions!
Best,
Irene @ Tutorials Dojo
