Amazon Redshift - Now Broadly Available
Jeff Barr:
We announced Amazon Redshift, our fast and powerful, fully managed, petabyte-scale data warehouse service, late last year (see my earlier blog post for more info).
[…]
We’ve designed Amazon Redshift to be cost-effective, easy to use, and flexible.
Questions:
- who is the ideal Redshift user? I assume it should be AWS users that already have data in the Amazon cloud. Otherwise I have a bit of a hard time imagining trucks carrying tons of hard drives into Amazon data centers.
- what happens if for some reason you decide to move your data our of Redshift? How would that work?
- what is the next move and counter-argument of Greenplum, Netezza, Vertica, etc. to Redshift?
