Metastore Setup – AWS Glue Catalog

Metastore​

An AWS Glue Catalog in Yeedu lets you connect to your AWS Glue Data Catalog and access database, table, and partition metadata stored in your AWS account.

An AWS Glue Metastore configuration includes:

  • External Storage Path (e.g., S3 bucket)
  • Storage Secret (credentials for your object store)
