Analytics and Data Lake Use Cases
Business Intelligence
Simple and cost effective to run high performance queries on petabytes of semi-structured and structured data so that you can build powerful reports and dashboards.
Data Warehousing
Run SQL and complex, analytic queries against structured and unstructured data in your data warehouse and data lake, without the need for unnecessary data movement.
Scalable Data Lakes
Setting up and managing data lakes today usually involves a lot of manual and time-consuming tasks, but AWS automates these tasks so you can build and secure your data lake, in days instead of months.
Operational Analytics
Search, explore, filter, aggregate, and visualize your data in near real time for application monitoring, log analytics, and clickstream analytics.
Amazon Redshift Modern Data Architecture
The amount of data generated by IoT, smart devices, cloud applications, and social is growing exponentially. You need ways to easily and cost-effectively analyze all of this data with minimal time-to-insight, regardless of the format or where the data is stored.
Amazon Redshift powers the modern data architecture – enabling you to query data across your data warehouse, data lake, and operational databases to gain faster and deeper insights not possible otherwise. With a modern data architecture, you can store data in open file formats in your Amazon S3 data lake. This allows you to make this data available easily to other analytics and machine learning tools rather than locking it in a new silo.
With an Amazon Redshift modern data architecture, you can:
- Easily query data in your data lake and write data back to your data lake in open formats.
- Use familiar SQL statements to combine and process data across all your data stores.
- Execute queries on live data in your operational databases without requiring any data loading and ETL pipelines.
