Quicksight Update Frequency

By default the Glue Trigger is set for every 4 hours to reduce cost. This can frequency can be increased, but check the AWS Glue console pricing for more details. In my testing AWS Glue cost 0.44 cents per run in this solution.

The GlueJob that writes player data to S3 for Athena and Quick sight is located within the WatchTimeGlueTrigger. Look for the field that looks like this. Schedule: cron(0 */4 * * ? *)

Architecture

How to customize and create your own CloudFormation template.

Setup Instructions To build with Docker && make

Pre-requisites:

Install docker for your environment as we will use a Docker container to build
Install AWS CLI
Install yarn

The build and deployment process for this project has been tested on both Mac and Linux using the vscode and Cloud9 IDEs respectively.

Build Configuration:

Copy the Makefile.sample file to a file named Makefile. In the new file:

set bucket variable to reflect the S3 bucket name prefix which will be created within a deployment region. Note the region name will be appended to this prefix.
optionally, set the s3prefix variable to a prefix you wish to prepend to the path of all artifacts put into the S3 bucket(s).
set regions variable to reflect one or more AWS regions you want the code artifacts to be copied for CloudFormation deployment.
set stack_name for the Stack Name to use in the deployment.
set profile to the AWS CLI profile which has necessary permissions to deploy and create all the resources required.

Commands to manage creation/deletion of S3 buckets:

To create buckets across regions: make creates3
To delete buckets across regions: make deletes3

Commands to build and deploy the entire project

make all
make deploy

Once the deployment is done you should see the player URL in the Outputs section of the CloudFormation template.
