AWS Glue and update duplicating data
I'm using AWS Glue to move multiple files to an RDS instance from S3. Each day I get a new file into S3 which may contain new data, but can also contain a record I have already saved with some updates values. If I run the job multiple times I will of course get duplicate records in the database. Instead of multiple records being inserted I want Glue to try and update that record if it notices a field has changed, each record has a unique id. Is this possible?
python pyspark etl aws-glue

Unfortunately there is no elegant way to do it with Glue. If you would write to Redshift you could use postactions
to implement Redshift merge operation. However, it's not possible for other jdbc sinks (afaik).
Alternatively in your ETL script you can load existing data from a database to filter out existing records before saving. However if your DB table is big then the job may take a while to process it.
Another approach is to write into a staging table with mode 'overwrite' first (replace existing staging data) and then make a call to a DB via API to copy new records only into a final table.

I have used INSERT into table .... ON DUPLICATE KEY.. for UPSERTs into the Aurora RDS running mysql engine. Maybe this would be a reference for your use case. We cannot use a JDBC since we have only APPEND, OVERWRITE, ERROR modes currently supported.
I am not sure of the RDS database engine you are using, and following is an example for mysql UPSERTS.
Please see this reference, where i have posted a solution using INSERT INTO TABLE..ON DUPLICATE KEY for mysql :
Error while using INSERT INTO table ON DUPLICATE KEY, using a for loop array
