Problem

Describe your experience with AWS services you used for data pipelines and what you used them for.

Give a practical answer based on production or hands-on work. Explain the end-to-end flow, why you selected services such as Amazon S3, AWS Glue, Amazon Redshift, Amazon EMR, Amazon Kinesis, AWS Lambda, and Apache Airflow on Amazon MWAA, and how you handled orchestration, incremental loads, schema changes, retries, data quality, security, and monitoring. Include one representative code example or pseudocode workflow.
