AWS Data Exchange vs DataBP

AWS Data Exchange is a marketplace for finding, subscribing to, and sharing data products. It has more than 3,500 products from over 300 providers, including over 1,000 free data products and custom data products. Offerings can be delivered as files, through APIs, or as Amazon Redshift, Amazon S3, and AWS Lake Formation data sets; Lake Formation is marked Preview. Data can be exported to S3 and analyzed with Athena or Redshift, or used with SageMaker, EMR, Glue, and Lake Formation. CloudWatch Events can retrieve new data-set revisions to S3 automatically. The service encrypts data in transit with SSL/TLS and at rest with server-side encryption, and CloudTrail integration supports API-call auditing. Providers can offer free or paid subscriptions lasting 1 to 36 months, with private offers allowing customized terms. Prices for paid products are set by providers, and subscribers may also incur standard S3 transfer charges and costs for AWS services used to store, process, or analyze data. Public Open Data on AWS products can be accessed with or without an AWS account.
