A data engineer needs to debug an AWS Glue job that reads from Amazon S3...

The issue described is that the AWS Glue job is reprocessing files from previous runs despite the bookmark feature being enabled. Bookmarks in AWS Glue allow jobs to keep track of which files or data have already been processed to avoid reprocessing. The most likely reason for reprocessing the files is missing S3 permissions, specifically s3

s3

is a permission required by AWS Glue when bookmarks are enabled to ensure Glue can retrieve metadata from the files in S3, which is necessary for the bookmark mechanism to function correctly. Without this permission, Glue cannot track which files have been processed, resulting in reprocessing during subsequent runs.

Concurrency settings (Option B) and the version of AWS Glue (Option C) do not affect the bookmark behavior. Similarly, the lack of a commit statement (Option D) is not applicable in this context, as Glue handles commits internally when interacting with Redshift and S3.

Thus, the root cause is likely related to insufficient permissions on the S3 bucket, specifically s3

, which is required for bookmarks to work as expected.
