Benefits of Glue:
- Provides a real-world-like discussion space through 3D voices & sounds, and attenuation of audio volume over distance. Such features are lacking in regular conference calls, which feature a flat wall of sound.
- Provides each of its Glue Team with file storage for various types of files (like presentations, images, video, and 3D models), with even the provision of sharing content between users.
- Allows building complete custom-made spaces for all sorts of purposes, from a particular use case to fit one’s company’s visual guidelines. Besides spaces, Glue’s flexible architecture also allows the creation of unique and highly specific scenarios for collaborative training, entertainment, situation rooms or product marketing showcases, etc.
- Its custom 3D environment models can be used as templates for new virtual spaces. In case one can’t find a suitable template, they can reach out to Glue’s tech team to have their Glue environment converted to a ready-made 3D model.
- Enables secure collaboration by utilizing industry best practices, proprietary data-protection algorithms, and acclaimed 3rd party solutions for authentication, networking, and data storage.

Overall: AWS Glue studio allows ETL developers and data engineers to visually develop, run, and monitor the ETL workflows. AWS Glue DataBrew allows data scientists and data analysts to visually enhance and normalize the data without the need of writing the code. AWS Glue Elastic views allow app developers to use SQL to merge and replicate the data beyond numerous data stores. It allows different groups to work together on data incorporation tasks such as normalization, extraction, loading, cleaning and running ETL workflows. In this way, you minimize the time it takes in analyzing the data.

The graphical user interface is not user-friendly as compared to other ETL tools. Also, it does not provide any concept for data streaming. It is hard to use for non-developers. It is very difficult to implement it as it involves concepts such as ETL scripts. It takes much time to start the job for the first time. It can be costly depending on your plan on doing with it. It supports limited no. of file types. It provides less customization and no visualization.
