Replicate RDS PostgreSQL to Amazon Redshift in minutes
Do you want a quick and easy way to transfer data from RDS PostgreSQL to Amazon Redshift? If yes, then you can transfer your data with an efficient ETL tool: Daton.
These days, companies depend on data-driven decisions to stay ahead of market competitors. Therefore, these business data from various data sources need quick and safe storage. However, the expense to establish and manage flexible and secure physical storage is relatively high. Therefore, enterprises are now utilizing cloud databases like PostgreSQL. However, it is challenging to extract, replicate and manage data from databases. For this, cloud servers like Amazon RDS designed solutions to manage, control, and have easy access to PostgreSQL. Moreover, enterprises use ETL tools like Daton to reduce the time and effort of reporting and analyzing business data from several data sources. Also, Daton enables replicating data from cloud servers to data warehouses like Amazon Redshift, where analysts and firm managers can comprehensively view quick and accurate reporting without using coding.
Why integrate RDS PostgreSQL to Amazon Redshift?
To operate cloud warehouses, companies nowadays are using cloud servers like Amazon RDS. Servers like RDS support companies to handle administrative operations in cloud databases like PostgreSQL. With RDS, companies will get reduced data loss and theft, automatic database replication, and back by secure servers. For simplifying data analysis and reporting, enterprises must consolidate data from RDS PostgreSQL with other databases like Amazon Aurora, COGS, and sales sheets. However, it is pretty challenging to integrate data, which is time-consuming and often provides inaccurate reports manually. Hence, companies are moving towards ETL tools like Daton that provide quick data migration from RDS PostgreSQL to Amazon Redshift. Daton ETL tool is highly automated and replicates data efficiently from various data sources to cloud data warehouses without the hassle of writing coding.
RDS PostgreSQL Overview
Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) provides web service and supports users to handle a relational database for Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL and PostgreSQL in the AWS Cloud. AWS handles the basic infrastructure like network, firewalls, operating system, regular patches, and security. It is enhanced for I/O-intensive, transactional (OLTP) database workloads. This inexpensive server with a scalability feature is utilized for general database administration tasks. RDS PostgreSQL backs DB instances running various versions and editions of PostgreSQL Server.
Amazon Redshift Overview
The Amazon Redshift is the most popular data warehouse to offer a cloud-native, petabyte-scale service. The software provides a query engine for all users allowing SQL-based querying and a host of business intelligence tools to connect with the service. Developers designed Amazon Redshift on a scalable infrastructure, that supports big data and massive workloads. The powerful management console enables connections from any SQL client. Amazon Redshift service also supports REST APIs allowing developers to work in real-time with simple API calls. It is compatible with several BI and visualization tools.
How to replicate RDS PostgreSQL to Amazon Redshift?
