Connect Amazon S3 and
Databricks with AI

Redbird AI syncs data between Amazon S3 and Databricks automatically — no more writing Spark notebooks to ingest new S3 files, manually triggering Delta refreshes, or building custom pipelines to move processed data back to storage. Automate the full lakehouse workflow from raw file landing to analysis-ready tables.

What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Auto-ingest new S3 files into Delta Lake tables on landing

When CSV, Parquet, or JSON files land in S3 buckets, Redbird automatically ingests them into the correct Delta Lake tables in Databricks with schema validation and partitioning. Data teams stop manually monitoring buckets and running ingestion notebooks every time upstream systems drop new files.

Export Databricks Delta tables to S3 for downstream consumption

After transformations complete in Databricks, Redbird writes output tables back to S3 in Parquet format for BI tools, data warehouses, or ML pipelines that consume from storage. Teams eliminate manual export jobs and keep downstream systems synced with the latest processed data.

Trigger Databricks jobs when specific S3 prefixes receive data

When files arrive in designated S3 paths or partitions, Redbird kicks off corresponding Databricks workflows — incremental loads, feature engineering pipelines, or ML retraining jobs. Data engineers stop scheduling jobs on fixed intervals and process data immediately when it's available.

Archive cold Databricks tables to S3 Glacier for cost optimization

Redbird identifies Delta tables that haven't been queried recently in Databricks and automatically exports them to S3 Glacier storage classes, then drops the warm copies. Analytics teams maintain data governance requirements while cutting storage costs on historical data that's rarely accessed.

Sync S3 event logs into Databricks for usage analytics

CloudTrail logs, S3 access logs, and bucket event data flow continuously into Databricks tables for analysis of storage patterns, cost attribution, and data lineage tracking. Platform teams gain visibility into who's accessing what data without building custom log aggregation pipelines.

Alert when S3-to-Delta sync drift or schema mismatches occur

Redbird monitors ongoing S3-to-Databricks data flows and alerts teams when source files arrive with schema changes, data quality issues, or unexpected formats that could break downstream pipelines. Data engineers catch problems before they cascade through the lakehouse and corrupt analytics tables.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Amazon S3 and Databricks with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands S3 bucket structures, object metadata, and file formats alongside Databricks Delta Lake schemas, Unity Catalog namespaces, and cluster configurations — so syncs work correctly without custom code.

AI that understands lakehouse architectures and cloud storage patterns

Redbird maps S3 prefixes and partitioning schemes to Databricks catalog structures automatically, handling schema evolution in Delta tables as source files change. It recognizes common data lake patterns — raw/bronze/silver/gold hierarchies, date-based partitions, and multi-format ingestion — and configures the right read/write operations for Parquet, JSON, CSV, and Avro files. When tables use features like Z-ordering, liquid clustering, or change data feed, Redbird preserves those optimizations during syncs.

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Amazon S3 and Databricks simultaneously, merge the results, and format a polished report — sent on a schedule or on demand.

Trigger-based alerts

Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either Amazon S3 or Databricks.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.

Bidirectional sync

Push data from Amazon S3 into Databricks, or from Databricks back into Amazon S3. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.

Full audit trail

Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.

Triggers & actions for every team

Start automations from any S3 bucket event or Databricks job status, then take action across both systems.

Amazon S3
Triggers & Actions
Trigger

New object created in bucket

Triggers when files are uploaded to specified S3 buckets or prefixes, with filtering by file type or size.

Trigger

Object metadata changed

Fires when S3 object tags, storage class, or metadata attributes are modified.

Trigger

Bucket prefix reaches size threshold

Monitors total data volume in S3 paths and triggers when thresholds are exceeded for cost management.

Action

Write data to bucket prefix

Uploads files or datasets to specific S3 paths with partitioning and format conversion.

Action

Copy objects between buckets

Moves or replicates S3 objects across buckets or regions based on workflow logic.

Action

Update object tags or storage class

Modifies S3 object metadata, lifecycle policies, or transitions data to Glacier tiers.

Databricks
Triggers & Actions
Trigger

Job completes successfully

Fires when Databricks jobs finish, enabling downstream actions based on pipeline completion status.

Trigger

Table updated or refreshed

Monitors Delta Lake tables for new data commits or schema changes via Delta transaction logs.

Trigger

Cluster starts or terminates

Tracks Databricks compute lifecycle events for cost tracking and workflow orchestration.

Action

Run notebook or job

Executes Databricks notebooks or workflows with parameterized inputs from other systems.

Action

Write to Delta Lake table

Appends, upserts, or overwrites data in Unity Catalog tables with schema enforcement.

Action

Query tables and return results

Executes SQL against Delta tables and surfaces results to downstream tools or alerts.
