Amazon Redshift migration

Modernize your data warehouse by migrating to Amazon Redshift

Data in every organization is growing in volume and complexity faster than ever. Yet, only a small fraction of this invaluable asset is available for analysis. Traditional data warehouses have rigid architectures that do not scale for modern big data analytics use cases. Hadoop systems work well for processing massive volumes of big data, but they're not a substitute for a data warehouse's performance and easy access to insights via SQL tools. Organizations that use Hadoop systems along with traditional data warehouses are unable to derive insights that require data from the data warehouse and Hadoop systems together. Amazon Redshift is a fast, fully managed, and cost-effective data warehouse that liberates your analytics pipeline from these limitations. You can run queries across petabytes of data in your Amazon Redshift data warehouse and exabytes of data in your data lake in-place. 

In regions outside of China, Amazon Web Services, with the largest cloud DW deployments, was recognized as a leader by Forrester in the Forrester Wave™: Cloud Data Warehouse (2018) report.

Why migrate?

Maximize your ROI

Amazon Redshift a cost effective cloud data warehouse and less than 1/10th the cost of traditional data warehouses. There are no upfront costs with Redshift and you only pay for what you use. Finally, Amazon Redshift eliminates cost of downtime and security issues. You can encrypt data at rest and in transit, isolate your clusters with Amazon VPC, and be compliant with GDPR, HIPAA, ISO, and other industry-specific security regulations.

Set up, deploy, and manage with ease

Amazon Redshift is fully managed and simple to use, enabling you to deploy a new data warehouse in minutes and load virtually any type of data from a range of cloud or on-premises data sources. It automates most of the common administrative tasks to manage, monitor, and scale your data warehouse. It delivers fast query performance, improves I/O efficiency, and scales up or down as your performance and capacity needs change.

Get scale and flexibility

With your data warehouse on Amazon Web Services, you can go beyond data loaded on to local disks and query vast amounts of unstructured data in your Amazon S3 data lake - without having to load or transform any data. You can query data in open formats, including CSV, TSV, Parquet, Sequence, and RCFile. Having your data available in open formats in your data lake ultimately gives you the flexibility to use the right engine for different analytical needs.
