Accelerate your Data Warehouse Modernization with AWS Redshift
Amazon Redshift is a fully managed, high scale data warehouse service deployed on the AWS platform. Amazon Redshift uses massive parallel processing (MPP) and columnar data storage to provide businesses with significant speed, powerful computing, and cost efficiency.
Data Warehouse Modernization approaches are driven by cloud based implementations such as Redshift. Enterprises adopt Redshift in one or more ways:
- Creation of hybrid data warehouse by extending the existing on-premise warehouse to cloud.
- Migration of on-premise warehouse to the cloud.
- Creation of cloud native warehouse.
The RedShift Advantage
- Dual Capability – Redshift can be used both as a Data Warehouse and as a DataLake. A complementary service called Redshift Spectrum allows you to directly run SQL queries against exabytes of unstructured data in Amazon S3. No loading or transformation is required, you can use open data formats, including Avro, CSV, Grok, Ion, JSON, ORC, Parquet, RCFile, RegexSerDe, SequenceFile, TextFile, and TSV.
- Fast Processing – Redshift optimizes query processing even while processing huge volumes of data (petabytes) by utilizing the power of Massive Parallel Processing (MPP) capabilities of its data warehousing architecture and all the available resources of distributed workloads.
- User Friendly – Database administrators find it easy to adopt and use Redshift because of its striking similarities between Amazon Redshift’s relational database structure and the household SQL-based commands that can be operated upon it. Redshift automates the common administrative tasks to help manage, monitor, and scale the data warehouse with a push-button simplicity.
- Low Cost – The scalability of Amazon Redshift makes it an increasingly cost-effective alternative to traditional data warehousing practices. The on-demand pricing structure means you only pay for what you consume. Compared to more traditional, legacy data warehouses, Amazon Redshift provides a blend of both entry-level affordability and massive cost-efficiency at scale.
- Easy to Configure and Manage – Provisioning is significantly simple as Amazon Redshift automatically minimizes the time and effort needed to managing your own data warehouse. In turn, it provides remarkably efficiency to manage daily DevOps workflow.
- Advantages of The Amazon AWS Ecosystem – For organizations already using Amazon AWS, there are considerable synergies for running Amazon Redshift with other services such speed, efficiency, cost and scalability.
