Serverless architectures are changing how data pipelines are built. At Essid Solutions, we design event-driven pipelines using AWS Lambda, EventBridge, and S3 to provide low-maintenance, scalable solutions without managing servers.
π Why Go Serverless for Data Pipelines?
- No infrastructure to manage
- Auto-scaling and high availability
- Pay only for what you use
- Ideal for lightweight and bursty workloads
Perfect for real-time ingestion, small batch processing, and async workflows.
βοΈ Common Serverless Pipeline Use Cases
- ETL for JSON/CSV to S3 and Redshift/Snowflake
- Log ingestion and transformation
- Webhook to data warehouse
- IoT or sensor data streaming
- Periodic data pulls from APIs
π Core AWS Services Used
- Amazon S3 β Storage for raw and processed data
- AWS Lambda β Stateless compute for transformation or enrichment
- Amazon EventBridge β Event routing and triggers
- AWS Glue / Athena β Schema discovery and querying
- Step Functions (optional) β Orchestration for complex flows

πΌ Use Case: Real-Time Transaction Logging
A fintech client needed to log and enrich user transactions in real-time. We:
- Triggered Lambda via EventBridge for new API requests
- Cleaned and enriched data on the fly
- Stored results in S3 and Snowflake for BI dashboards
Result: Pipeline scaled to 1M+ events/day with 99.9% uptime, no server maintenance.
π Go Serverless with Confidence
We help teams launch reliable serverless pipelines using the best of AWS.
