Summary

The guide provides a simplified implementation of a real-time data sanitization workflow using AWS services and Couchbase to ensure compliance with privacy requirements. The solution leverages the power of AWS Simple Queue Service (SQS), Elastic Container Registry (ECR), and a Lambda function working in partnership with Couchbase Capella, the fully managed Database as a Service (DBaaS). This plug-and-play capable workflow can be utilized in any context and can be expanded to fit the use case being built. The implementation simplifies the process of removing Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from data before it is stored in a database, thereby ensuring user integrity while reducing the burden on engineering teams. By following this guide, developers can build an automated workflow that streamlines development and reduces cognitive load, making it easier to maintain compliance with privacy regulations.
