Data warehousing reinvented for today’s needs
summary
Amazon Redshift claims independent compute/storage with RA3 nodes (RA3.xlplus, RA3.4xl, RA3.16xl), queries exabytes via Redshift Spectrum, runs ML training and inference in-cluster with Redshift ML, and offers a REST-style Data API plus cross-account data sharing. Concurrency scaling spins up transient clusters on spikes (one free hour/day → ~30 free hours/month; 97% of customers use it free), materialized views support incremental refresh and auto query rewrite, and Serverless provides pay-for-usage RPUs and automatic scaling. Security uses IAM, KMS and Canadian CCCS compliance.
