Amazon AppFlow
#92 · Level 3 · Modern architecture · Application IntegrationConcept
Section titled “Concept”Amazon AppFlow is a fully managed integration service for moving data between SaaS apps and AWS. You build a flow, which has a source (such as Salesforce), a destination (such as S3 or Redshift) and the data that should move. A flow can be run by hand, on a schedule, or when an event happens. Along the way, you can do simple transformations such as filtering data, mapping fields or masking some parts. You don’t need to write code for this — AppFlow’s connectors do the work.
