So far in the module, we have discussed all the key aspects of Redshift. By now, you have a good understanding of the Redshift architecture and had hands-on experience with querying in Redshift.
Like all other enterprise services of AWS, Redshift is also a sophisticated yet costly offering. This makes monitoring the cost of clusters as important as working with them. This is what this segment will focus on. So, in this segment, you will learn about some important considerations and add-on services of Redshift, which have both performance and cost implications. Let’s watch the next video where our SME will explain this in detail.
Note:
The pricing of the various instance types discussed in the above video and in the image below have been taken at the time of recording and may change in the future.
The key points from this video are summarised in the table provided below.
