Frequently Asked Questions
How does Redshift compare to other data warehouses like Snowflake or BigQuery?▼
Redshift excels when you’re deeply invested in AWS ecosystem. Native integration with S3, Glue, EMR, and other AWS services provides seamless data movement. RA3 nodes offer compute-storage separation similar to Snowflake, while Spectrum enables BigQuery-like data lake queries. Cost is typically 30-50% lower than Snowflake for similar workloads, especially with reserved instances.
What are the benefits of RA3 nodes over DC2 nodes?▼
RA3 nodes separate compute and storage, allowing independent scaling. Managed storage automatically offloads cold data to S3 while maintaining query performance. You can scale compute up/down without data migration, resize clusters in minutes (not hours), and enable cross-region data sharing. RA3 also includes AQUA acceleration for 10x performance on certain queries.
When should I use Redshift Spectrum versus loading data into Redshift?▼
Use Spectrum for infrequently accessed cold data, exploratory analysis on raw data lakes, or when data volumes exceed your cluster capacity. Load data into Redshift for frequently queried hot data, complex joins requiring optimal performance, or workloads needing sub-second latency. Best practice is hybrid: hot data in Redshift, cold data queried via Spectrum.
What does your Redshift migration process look like?▼
Our proven 4-phase approach: (1) Assessment - analyze source workload, data volume, query patterns; (2) Design - architect target Redshift cluster, distribution/sort keys, WLM configuration; (3) Migration - use AWS Schema Conversion Tool (SCT), AWS DMS, or custom ETL with validation; (4) Optimization - tune queries, implement best practices, train your team. Typical enterprise migration takes 6-12 weeks with zero data loss.
How can you reduce our Redshift costs?▼
Multiple strategies: (1) Reserved Instances provide 40-75% discount over on-demand; (2) Pause/resume for dev/test clusters during off-hours; (3) Right-size clusters based on actual workload; (4) Use Spectrum for cold data instead of loading; (5) Optimize distribution keys to reduce data movement; (6) Enable Concurrency Scaling only when needed. Clients typically see 30-50% cost reduction within first quarter.
How do you ensure security and compliance for Redshift?▼
Comprehensive security implementation: encryption at rest (AES-256) and in transit (SSL/TLS), VPC isolation with private subnets, IAM role-based access control, audit logging to S3 for compliance, AWS KMS key management, and integration with AWS Security Hub. We maintain SOC 2 Type II certification and support HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR, and other compliance frameworks.
