Using Regular Expressions and Lambda to Extract Data from S3
Even when regular expressions aren't supported by native cloud tools, it doesn't mean we can't use them! As long as we can export our data, we can leverage the regular expressions libraries of popular coding languages. Paired with serverless tools like AWS Lambda, we can automatically extract the data we need as soon as it's uploaded to our block storage solution — in this case, S3.
