Salesforce provides customer relationship management (CRM) software that help you with sales, customer service, e-commerce, and more. If you're a Salesforce user, you can connect AWS Glue to your Salesforce account. Then, you can use Salesforce as a data source or destination in your ETL Jobs. Run these jobs to transfer data between Salesforce and AWS services or other supported applications.
