Introduction to Redshift using Pagila Sample Dataset Including ETL from Postgres using AWS Glue
In this article I give a practical introductory tutorial to using Amazon Redshift as an OLAP Data Warehouse solution for the popular Pagila Movie Rental dataset. I start with a basic overview of the unique architecture Redshift uses to accomplish its scalable and robust use case as an enterprise cloud data warehouse. Then armed with this basic knowledge of Redshift architecture I move on to give a practical example of designing a schema optimal for Redshift based off the Pagila sample dataset.
