Book Description
Amazon Redshift is a fully managed, petabyte-scale AWS cloud data warehousing service. It enables you to build new data warehouse workloads on AWS and migrate on-premises traditional data warehousing platforms to Redshift.
This book on Amazon Redshift starts by focusing on Redshift architecture, showing you how to perform database administration tasks on Redshift. You'll then learn how to optimize your data warehouse to quickly execute complex analytic queries against very large datasets. Because of the massive amount of data involved in data warehousing, designing your database for analytical processing lets you take full advantage of Redshift's columnar architecture and managed services. As you advance, you'll discover how to deploy fully automated and highly scalable extract, transform, and load (ETL) processes, which help minimize the operational efforts that you have to invest in managing regular ETL pipelines and ensure the timely and accurate refreshing of your data warehouse. Finally, you'll gain a clear understanding of Redshift use cases, data ingestion, data management, security, and scaling so that you can build a scalable data warehouse platform.
By the end of this Redshift book, you'll be able to implement a Redshift-based data analytics solution and have understood the best practice solutions to commonly faced problems.
What you will learn
- Use Amazon Redshift to build petabyte-scale data warehouses that are agile at scale
- Integrate your data warehousing solution with a data lake using purpose-built features and services on AWS
- Build end-to-end analytical solutions from data sourcing to consumption with the help of useful recipes
- Leverage Redshift's comprehensive security capabilities to meet the most demanding business requirements
- Focus on architectural insights and rationale when using analytical recipes
- Discover best practices for working with big data to operate a fully managed solution
