In this post, we’ll demonstrate querying the Amazon Redshift audit data logged in S3 to provide answers to common use cases described preceding.

In April, we announced Amazon Redshift Spectrum in the AWS Blog. Redshift Spectrum is a new feature of Amazon Redshift that allows you to run complex SQL queries against exabytes of data in Amazon without having to load and transform any data. We’re happy to announce that Amazon QuickSight now supports Redshift Spectrum. Starting today, […]

In the healthcare field, data comes in all shapes and sizes. Despite efforts to standardize terminology, some concepts (e.g., blood glucose) are still often depicted in different ways. This post demonstrates how to convert an openly available dataset called MIMIC-III, which consists of de-identified medical data for about 40,000 patients, into an open source data […]

This blog post has been translated into Japanese and Chinese. Data warehousing workloads are known for high variability due to seasonality, potentially expensive exploratory queries, and the varying skill levels of SQL developers. To obtain high performance in the face of highly variable workloads, Amazon Redshift workload management (WLM) enables you to flexibly manage priorities and resource […]

This blog post has been translated into Japanese.  Mixed workloads run batch and interactive workloads (short-running and long-running queries or reports) concurrently to support business needs or demand. Typically, managing and configuring mixed workloads requires a thorough understanding of access patterns, how the system resources are being used and performance requirements. It’s common for mixed […]

Organizations often grow organically—and so does their data in individual silos. Such systems are often powered by traditional RDBMS systems and they grow orthogonally in size and features. To gain intelligence across heterogeneous data sources, you have to join the data sets. However, this imposes new challenges, as joining data over dblinks or into a […]

Air travel can be stressful due to the many factors that are simply out of airline passengers’ control. As passengers, we want to minimize this stress as much as we can. We can do this by using past data to make predictions about how likely a flight will be delayed based on the time of […]

All software developers strive to build products that are functional, robust, and bug-free, but video game developers have an extra challenge: they must also create a product that entertains. When designing a game, developers must consider how the various elements—such as characters, story, environment, and mechanics—will fit together and, more importantly, how players will interact […]
