AWS Glue now supports OAuth 2.0 for Snowflake connectivity

AWS Glue OAuth 2.0 Support for Snowflake Connectivity

Starting today, AWS Glue supports OAuth 2.0 authorization and authentication for native Snowflake connectivity, enabling customers to read from and write to Snowflake without sharing user credentials. This makes it easier for enterprises to maintain security compliance while building data integration pipelines.

With OAuth support, you can now securely access Snowflake data within AWS Glue using temporary token-based authorization.

Key Benefits

• Enhanced security compliance
• Simplified access control
• Granular access control
• Improved auditability

What to do

• Configure your AWS Glue Snowflake connection with OAuth by visiting the AWS Glue documentation.
