1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,430 ‫Next type of database we have is Redshift. 2 00:00:03,430 --> 00:00:06,900 ‫Redshift is a database that is based on PostgreSQL, 3 00:00:06,900 --> 00:00:08,640 ‫but it is not used for OLTP. 4 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,530 ‫OLTP stands for Online Transaction Processing. 5 00:00:11,530 --> 00:00:13,520 ‫That is what RDS was good for. 6 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:18,000 ‫Instead, Redshift is OLAP or Online Analytical Processing, 7 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,010 ‫which is used to do analytics and data warehousing. 8 00:00:21,010 --> 00:00:24,100 ‫So anytime in the exam you are seeing the database needs 9 00:00:24,100 --> 00:00:27,030 ‫to be a warehouse and to do analytics on it, 10 00:00:27,030 --> 00:00:29,110 ‫then Redshift is going to be your answer. 11 00:00:29,110 --> 00:00:31,550 ‫With Redshift, you do not load data continuously, 12 00:00:31,550 --> 00:00:34,040 ‫you load it for example, every hour. 13 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:35,610 ‫The idea with Redshift that it is really, 14 00:00:35,610 --> 00:00:38,930 ‫really good at analyzing data and making some computations. 15 00:00:38,930 --> 00:00:41,870 ‫So it boasts 10x better performance 16 00:00:41,870 --> 00:00:45,590 ‫than other data warehouses, and scales to petabytes of data. 17 00:00:45,590 --> 00:00:47,420 ‫The data is stored in columns. 18 00:00:47,420 --> 00:00:48,740 ‫So it is called a columnar storage 19 00:00:48,740 --> 00:00:50,380 ‫of data instead of a row based. 20 00:00:50,380 --> 00:00:52,360 ‫So anytime you see columnar again, 21 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,710 ‫think Redshift and it has something 22 00:00:54,710 --> 00:00:58,520 ‫called the Massively Parallel Query Execution, MBP engine 23 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,150 ‫to do these competitions very, very quickly. 24 00:01:01,150 --> 00:01:02,050 ‫It is pay as you go, 25 00:01:02,050 --> 00:01:04,310 ‫based on the instances you have provisioned 26 00:01:04,310 --> 00:01:07,270 ‫and has a SQL interface to perform the queries. 27 00:01:07,270 --> 00:01:10,090 ‫It is also finally integrated with BI. 28 00:01:10,090 --> 00:01:12,340 ‫So Business Intelligence tools such as Quicksight 29 00:01:12,340 --> 00:01:14,660 ‫or Tableau, if you want to create dashboards 30 00:01:14,660 --> 00:01:17,520 ‫on top of your data and your data warehouse. 31 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:18,353 ‫So that is it. 32 00:01:18,353 --> 00:01:21,810 ‫Just a high level overview, that a data warehouse is used 33 00:01:21,810 --> 00:01:24,130 ‫to do some computation on your datasets 34 00:01:24,130 --> 00:01:26,800 ‫and do some analytics and possibly build 35 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,990 ‫some visualizations through dashboards on it. 36 00:01:29,990 --> 00:01:32,970 ‫So for that use case, Redshift will be perfect. 37 00:01:32,970 --> 00:01:34,000 ‫So that is it for this lecture. 38 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:34,833 ‫I hope you liked it, 39 00:01:34,833 --> 00:01:36,720 ‫and I will see you in the next lecture.
