AWS::Glue::Workflow
The AWS::Glue::Workflow is an AWS Glue resource type that manages AWS Glue workflows. A workflow is a container for a set of related jobs, crawlers, and triggers in AWS Glue. Using a workflow, you can design a complex multi-job extract, transform, and load (ETL) activity that AWS Glue can execute and track as single entity.
